Question 4 • GA-8th Grade Mathematics

At the Two Below store, every item is $2 less than the suggested retail price. If y is Two Below’s price, and x is the suggested retail price, which equation and graph fit?

Answer
A
y = x + 2
B
y = x – 2
C
y = x ÷ 2

Explanation

Two Below’s price is $2 less than the suggested retail price, so subtract 2 from x: y = x − 2. Its graph is a straight line with slope 1 and y-intercept −2. Choice B, y = x − 2, gives that relationship.
