Maria is purchasing sandwiches for her team at work. Each sandwich costs $6.25 and there is a delivery fee of $15.00, all taxes included. She can only spend up to $170 on the team lunch. What is the largest number of sandwiches Maria can purchase for her team while staying within her budget?

The maximum number of sandwiches she can buy is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a function to represent the cost of her team's lunch in function of the number of people in the team. We have:

Since she needs to stay on budget, the cost has to be less or equal to 170, therefore:

Since she can't buy 0.8 sandwiches, the maximum number of sandwiches she can buy is 24.

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.

-6 is the correct option from the above given options
