“USING THE BASIC ALGEBRAIC EQUATION Y = 15X, STUDENTS CAN CREATE A T-CHART OF VALUES FOR TOTAL PAY (Y) VERSUS HOURS WORKED (X). THEY CAN THEN PLOT THOSE POINTS ON A GRAPH TO SEE THE PATTERN. WITH SOME RESEARCH, WE CAN EXPLORE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MINIMUM WAGE AND A LIVING WAGE AND PLOT THE NEW PATTERN ON THEIR GRAPH. SPOILER ALERT: IT WILL HAVE A STEEPER SLOPE.”
