for the 1st one, y changes by 5 when x changes by 1 ___ so y = 5x + ?
___ think of the ? as the "adjustment"
___ when x is 2, y is 30 ___ 30 = 5(2) + ? ___ 30 = 10 + ? ___ so ? is 20
___ the function is y = 5x + 20

the 2nd one works the same as the 1st one
___ y changes by $2.50 when x changes by 1 ___ y = $2.50 x + ?
___ when x is 1, y is $10.00 ___ $10.00 = $2.50(1) + ? ___ $7.50 = ?
___ y = $2.50 x + $7.50
