1.) use the line drawing tool to draw the equation upper y equals 2 plus upper xy=2+x. label your line 'a'. 2.) use the line drawing tool to draw the equation upper y equals 16 minus 1.50 upper xy=16−1.50x. label your line 'b'. 3.) use the point drawing tool to indicate the point where both equations are equal. label this point 'equilibrium'. carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
