For this week's graded discussion, you need to make up your own example of a application of linear equations. For your initial post, make up your own setup and at least 2 questions and then give us the correct solutions. It should be similar to the types of questions that you see on the Canvas homework or the written homework from this week, but I would like more than just changing the numbers in an existing problem. Here's an example: "At my local coffee shop, they charge $2.50 for an 8 oz cup and $3.00 for a 12 oz cup. If we assume that the cost is a linear function of the number of ounces, write a linear equation (in slope-intercept form) that relates the cost (y) to the number of ounces (x). With this equation. how many ounces could you get for $5?" Then I would give my solutions (no work is needed, just the solutions).
