Suppose the relationship between the government's tax revenue (T) and national income (Y) is represented by the equation T=35+0.5Y. Plot this relationship on a scale diagram, with Y on the horizontal axis and T on the vertical axis. Interpret the equation.
Use the line drawing tool to draw the equation. Make sure to plot the vertical axis as one endpoint of the line. Properly label this line.
Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.
Can you show me how to graph this, please?
