Question

the point of intersection of the two lines is ____ h. at this point, beth’s earnings will be ____ $, roy’s earnings, and beth would have put in ______ $ / day

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the x - axis and y - axis

The x - axis represents "Extra Hours" and the y - axis represents "Earnings (in dollars)". We need to find the point of intersection of the two lines. From the graph, we can see that the x - coordinate of the intersection point (the number of extra hours) and the y - coordinate (the earnings in dollars) need to be determined. Looking at the graph, when we find the intersection point, we can observe the values on the axes.

Step2: Determine the intersection point

By visually inspecting the graph, the two lines intersect at an x - value (extra hours) of 15 (since the x - axis has marks and the intersection seems to be at x = 15) and the y - value (earnings) at this point is 450 (from the y - axis markings). Also, at this point, both Beth's and Roy's earnings are equal, so Beth's earnings will be equal to Roy's earnings, and both would have put in 15 extra hours.

Answer:

The point of intersection of the two lines is (15, 450). At this point, Beth's earnings will be equal to Roy's earnings, and Beth would have put in 15 extra hours. (The first blank is 15, the second blank is 450, and the third blank is equal to)
