Answer:
The two ordered pairs that represent this situation are :
[tex](0,2.5)[/tex] and [tex](10,4.5)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2000 was $2.5 million.
We also know that the cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2010 was $4.5 million.
The variable ''x'' represents the number of years since 2000 and the variable ''y'' represents the cost of a 30 second commercial (in millions of dollars).
An ordered pair is a pair with the following form :
[tex](a,b)[/tex]
Where ''a'' and ''b'' are real numbers. Generally, when we are talking about functions we write the ordered pair as [tex](x,y)[/tex]
In the first case, we have [tex]x=0[/tex] and [tex]y=2.5[/tex]
We can't forget how we defined the variables ''x'' and 'y''.
In the second case, we have [tex]x=10[/tex] (Ten years from 2000 to 2010) and [tex]y=4.5[/tex]
The two ordered pairs that represent this situation are :
[tex](0,2.5)[/tex] and [tex](10,4.5)[/tex].
