a. A banner ad earns $0.005 per click. Write a linear equation that represents the monthly income y (in dollars) for x clicks.
The linear equation y=.005x-120 represents the monthly income y for x clicks

So you have two points (0,-120) and (24000,0)
Plot the points and draw a line thru them.
That is the graph
