Rhonda took $20 with her to spend on popcorn and candy for herself and her friends at the movie theater. The price for each bag of popcorn was $5. The price of each box of candy was half the price of a bag of popcorn.

Use one axis to represent the number of bags of popcorn and the other axis to represent the number of boxes of candy. Create an equation and sketch the graph that represents the number of each item she can purchase. Be sure to clearly label the intercepts.
In words, explain your graph and what the intercepts mean in context of the situation.

The linear equation that represents the scenario is 5x + 2.5y = 20

How to determine the equation?

The given parameters are:

  • Popcorn = $5 per bag
  • Candy = $2.5 per bag i.e. half the price of pop corn

Let x represents popcorn and y represents candy.

So, we have:

5x + 2.5y = 20

The intercepts in this case are the maximum number of candy and popcorn Rhonda can buy
