The Outdoor Adventure Club at Eisenhower High School needs to raise money for their trip to Mountain Classroom, so they plan several fund raising events. The first one is a car wash.

In the end they raised $414 for their trip. a. Define the variables and write an equation to show how the money they raised is related to the two types of cars that they washed.

b. What is the y-intercept and what does it mean in this situation?

c. What is the x-intercept and what does it mean in this situation?

d. What is another combination of possible cars washed that would have allowed them to earn $414?
