Question

Gordon also decides to sell candy at school by the pound.  The graph below displays the amount of money he can earn as a function, G, of how many pounds he sells.

Gordon  sell 25 pieces of candy, how much profit will he  earn?

 

 

The image depicts a graph on a standard Cartesian coordinate plane with a single linear function labeled "Function G." 

**Graph Details:**

- **Axes:** The x-axis and y-axis are both labeled with intervals of 10, ranging from at least -30 to 60 on the y-axis and from 0 to 50 on the x-axis.
- **Line:** The line representing Function G is drawn in green and has a positive slope. It starts below the x-axis at approximately (-10, -30) and extends to above the y-axis, passing through (40, 40).
- **Slope:** The function appears to have an approximate slope of 1, as it rises 10 units vertically for each 10-unit increase horizontally.
- **Quadrants:** The line passes through the origin and remains in the first and third quadrants, indicating it does intersect both axes.
  
This graph is useful for visualizing linear relationships and understanding the concept of slope and y-intercept in a mathematical context.
