the flower power has offered to sell its roses for a fixed down payment of $60 and an addition charge of $.50 per stem.
tell me if i am right but is the # of roses should be in the x place and the price of the roses should be in the y place?

You are correct. The number of flowers is the independent variable, which is placed on the x-axis. The price is dependent on the number purchased, so it goes on the y-axis.

I think that the number of roses should be on the y (or bottom, horizontal part of the graph. The x (vertical) graph in this case should begin with the $60 as a straight line across the graph and the different prices related to a spot on the graph for the various number of roses. At least that is what I would do. But, it is not set in stone, if you want to be creative.

Not to confuse you, but you can either make x or y. your formula can be y = $.50x + $60 where x is the number of roses and y is the total dollars spent. OR your formula could be y = (x-60)/.5 or y = 2x-120 where x >= $60 and y is the number of roses.

of direction, because of the fact the two equations behave in accordance to their respective slope as defined by using their coordinates, Assign X=0 and clean up for Y and vice versa, try this to each linear equation then plot the traces as defined by using ( 0,Y) and ( X,0) coordinates. in actuality we've discovered from airplane geometry that parallel traces never intersect to a minimum of one yet another. for this reason all traces in one straightforward intersect one yet another different than parallel traces.

You are absolutely right. # of roses is the independent variable and as such goes on the x-axis

Yes. Sounds right. One rose would cost $60.50? Two roses would be $61.00? Is that right? A dozen would be $66.00.

Yes. So your y axis starts at $60, and then rises by 50c per stem (x axis).

Correct ‼

your right because the x axes is the independent variable and the y axes is the dependent variable.
