Question 57620: Can someone help me on this problem?
I need to graph a straight-line graph on a real-life situation. I used a situation where if a person would go to sleep after the 11:30 p.m. news and wake-up every day at 7:30 a.m. being 8 hours a day, seven days a week. If that would be one variable what would the second one be and how would I write up the equation or inequality and draw a graph? I have to send it through the computer and can't write it on paper.
Can someone help me out there? I have to send it through tomorrow.
Need help.

ok ...then write just like this .
1.as you said ...x axis is number of days ..say 0 to 100 or whatever. y axis is total number of hours slept at the rate of 8 hrs sleep per day.
eqn will be
t = 8*d...where d are number of days...and t is total number of hours slept.
d.........1......10............20..........etc.............100
t.........8......80........... 160.........etc.............800
