The student council members are selling shirts as a fundraiser. They will donate $5.50 for every shirt they sell.
1. Write the equation to represent this relationship.
2. Create a table showing what they will donate for the first eight shirts.
1. Let x represent the number of shirts sold and y represent the amount donated. The equation would be: y = 5.50x
2. Table:

| 3 | $16.50 |
| 4 | $22.00 |
| 5 | $27.50 |
| 6 | $33.00 |
