A custom-illustrated sign or banner can be commissioned for a cost of $20.00 for the material and $11.70 per square foot for artwork. The equation that represents this cost is given by y = 11.70 x + 20.00, where y is the cost and x is the number of square feet in the sign. When this equation is graphed for , the ordered pair (17, 218.90) is discovered to lie on the graph. Write a sentence that describes the meaning of the ordered pair (17, 218.90).
