Charlotte is on the yearbook committee. She starts the semester with 5 page layouts done and completes the layout for 1.5 pages each week. Which graph represents the number of completed pages, y, after Charlotte works for x weeks?
Charlotte already has 5 page layouts done. She completes 1.5 page layouts a week. This can be represented by the following equation:
y = 1.5x + 5
1.5 is how many page layouts Charlotte finishes in a week. x is how many weeks elapse since the semester. 5 is the page layouts Charlotte has already finished at the beginning of the semester.
