y = x - 2
Finding the y-intercept (highlight%280%29, _)
y = highlight%280%29 -2 = -2
y = -2 || the y-intercept (highlight%280%29, -2)
Finding the x-intercept ( _, highlight%280%29)
highlight%280%29 = x - 2
x = 2 || the x-intercept is (2 , highlight%280%29)
Plot (0,-2) and (2,0) and connect with a Line

900*21ft = 18,900 and 900*(.80*21) = 900* 16.8ft = 15,120
