. The cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2000 was $2.5 million. The cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2010 was $4.5 million. Let x represent the number of years since 2000 and y represent the cost of a 30 second commercial( in millions of dollars). Write two ordered pairs that represent this situation. *

The two ordered pairs that represent this situation are :

and

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2000 was $2.5 million.

We also know that the cost of a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl in 2010 was $4.5 million.

The variable ''x'' represents the number of years since 2000 and the variable ''y'' represents the cost of a 30 second commercial (in millions of dollars).

An ordered pair is a pair with the following form :

Where ''a'' and ''b'' are real numbers. Generally, when we are talking about functions we write the ordered pair as

In the first case, we have and

We can't forget how we defined the variables ''x'' and 'y''.

In the second case, we have (Ten years from 2000 to 2010) and

The two ordered pairs that represent this situation are :
