3. caleb has $25 to spend on prizes for a game at the school fair. lip balm costs $1.25 each, and mini-notebooks cost $2.50 each.
a. write a linear equation in standard form that can be used to determine how many of each prize she can buy.
b. graph the equation using x- and y- intercepts.

linear equation in Standard form that can be used to determine how many of each prize Caleb can buy is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total cost spent on prizes for games = $25

Cost of one lip balm = $1.25

Cost of one mini notebook  = $2.50

A) linear equation in STANDARD FORM that can be used to determine how many of each prize she can buy.

Let the number of lip balms be x and the number of mini note books be y. Then

B. Graph the equation using x- and y- intercepts.

Now by trial and error method

Thus Caleb can buy 0,2,4,6,8,9,10,12,14,1,6,18,20 lip balms and

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 mini note books respectively

Now plotting these value in the graph, we get the below graph
