You are ordering shirts for the math club at your school. Short-sleeved shirts cost $10 each. Long-sleeved shirts cost $12 each. You have a budget of $300 for the shirts. The equation $10x+12y=300$ models the total cost, where $x$ is the number of short-sleeved shirts and $y$ is the number of long-sleeved shirts. a. Graph the equation. Interpret the intercepts

The graph of the equation is shown below.

The x-intercept is at point (30,0), which means the number of short-sleeved shirts is 30 when the number of long-sleeved shirts is 0.

The y-intercept is at point (0,25), which means the number of long-sleeved shirts is 25 when the number of short-sleeved shirts is 0.

Given:

Short-sleeved shirts cost $10 each.  

Long-sleeved shirts cost $12 each.

The total budget is $300.

The given equation is:

where is the number of short-sleeved shirts and is the number of long-sleeved shirts.

To find:

The graph of the given equation and the interpretation for the intercepts.

Explanation:

We have,

Substitute .

So, the y-intercept is at point (0,25).

Substitute .

So, the x-intercept is at point (30,0).

Plot the points (30,0) and (0,25) on a coordinate plane and connect them by a straight line.

The x-intercept is at point (30,0), which means the number of short-sleeved shirts is 30 when the number of long-sleeved shirts is 0.

The y-intercept is at point (0,25), which means the number of long-sleeved shirts is 25 when the number of short-sleeved shirts is 0.

a. i) Please see the  included graph of the equation $10·x + $12·y = $300

ii) The intercepts give the maximum number of either short-sleeve (x-intercept) long-sleeved (y-intercept) that can be ordered

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The cost of each short-sleeved shirt = $10

The cost of each long-sleeved shirt = $12

The amount available in the budget = $300

The equation for the total cost = $10·x + $12·y = $300

Where;

x = The number of short-sleeved shirts

y = The number of long-sleeved shirts

Rewriting the equation given in slope and intercept form, we have;

$10·x + $12·y = $300

$12·y = $300 - $10·x

y = $300/$12 - $10·x/$12

y = 25 - 5/6·x

Please find attached, the graph of the equation made with Microsoft Excel

The values of the data that can calculated to plot the graph are;

x, y

(0, 25 )

(5, 20.83 )

(10, 16.67)

(15, 12.5 )

(20, 8.33)

(25, 4.17)

(30, 0 )

The x-intercept gives the number of short-sleeve shirts that can be purchased with the $300 available budget, while the y-intercept gives the number of short-sleeve shirts that can be purchased with the $300 available budget.

the answer is 45 i just did it on oddesy ware

hi there!
