(a)

\

The linear equation is \"\", where \"\" is the charge of the rental space at the market (in dollars).

\

Graph :

\

Graph of the function \"\":

\

\"\"axis : Rental charge per space.

\

\"\"axis : Number of spaces.

\

Rental charge per space and number of spaces cannot be a negative.

\

Graph the function for the positive values of \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\

(b)

\

The function is \"\".

\

Compare the linear equation with slope-intercept form of line equation \"\".

\

Slope \"\".

\

The slope \"\" represents that for every 1 dollar increase in rental space, the number of spaces rented decreases by 4.

\

Observe the graph:

\

\"\"intercept is 200 and \"\"intercept is 50.

\

The \"\"intercept represents spaces available for no rental charge.

\

The \"\"intercept represents rental charge of $ 50 when nobody will rent any space at the flea market.
