x and y, whole numbers only
x for how many pop or carbonated drinks, y for how many bags of chips

if using the entire 15 dollars is wanted. The two next questions are asking for the axis intercepts..... but for one of the items, and not the other item. You would still find both intercepts in the process.

With p being number of soda pops and c being chips, we get:
Soda only: 2p = 15, or , or 7.5 soda pops, rounded DOWN to
3 bottles soda: 2(3) + 3c = 15 -------> 6 + 3c = 15 -------> 3c = 15 - 6 ------> 3c = 9
, or 3
With $15, can be purchased
