Selling Candy (Part 1) (Represent the solutions of an equation on a coordinate plane)

The video tutorial explains how Jack sells candy bars to raise money for his basketball team, with each bar priced at $2.00. It introduces the concept of dependent and independent variables, represented by the equation y = 2X. The tutorial guides viewers through creating a table of values using input values from 0 to 5, calculating the corresponding earnings, and graphing the equation. The process involves listing ordered pairs and plotting them on a graph to visually represent the relationship between the number of candy bars sold and the total earnings.

What is the dependent variable in the scenario where Jack sells candy bars?

• The cost of the basketball team

• The number of candy bars sold

• The amount of money Jack earns

• The price of each candy bar

If Jack sells 3 candy bars, how much money does he earn according to the equation y = 2X?

• $9.00

• $6.00

• $12.00

• $3.00

What is the Y value when X equals 4 in the equation y = 2X?

• 8

• 10

• 6

• 12

Which of the following ordered pairs is correct for the equation y = 2X?

• (5, 9)

• (2, 3)

• (4, 8)

• (3, 5)

What is the purpose of listing ordered pairs in the context of graphing?

• To calculate the total sales

• To prepare for graphing the equation

• To find the maximum number of candy bars sold

• To determine the price of each candy bar
