The costs to print shirts at each of two companies are represented on a graph, where the x-coordinate represents the number of shirts and the y-coordinate represents the cost. The line representing the cost at Company M passes through the points (0,25) and (3.46). The line representing the cost at Company N passes
through the points (0.0) and (2.24). Which statement is true about the relationship between the lines on the graph?
The point at which the lines intersect represents the maximum number of shirts that could be bought at Company M before it becomes less expensive
to print the shirts at Company N.
The point at which the lines intersect represents the maximum number of shirts that could be bought at Company N before it becomes less expensive
to print the shirts at Company M.
0
The lines intersect in Quadrant II where x is negative, so the point of intersection does not represent a true solution in this context.
O
The lines are parallel and do not intersect.
