A store offers packing and mailing services to customers. The cost of shipping a box is a combination of a flat packing fee of $5 and an amount based on the weight in pounds of the box, $2.25 per pound. Which equation represents the shipping cost as a function of x, the weight in pounds?

f(x) = 2.25x + 5

f(x) = 5x + 2.25

f(x) = 2.25x − 5

f(x) = 5x − 2.25

The table represents a linear function.

Line CD passes through points C(3, –5) and D(6, 0). What is the equation of line CD in standard form?

5x + 3y = 18

5x – 3y = 30

5x – y = 30

5x + y = 18

Pauley graphs the change in temperature of a glass of hot tea over time. He sees that the function appears to decrease quickly at first, then decrease more slowly as time passes. Which best describes this function?

It is linear because the graph decreases over time.

It is linear because there is both an independent and a dependent variable.

It is nonlinear because linear functions are increasing functions.

It is nonlinear because linear functions increase or decrease at the same rate.

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–9, –2) and (1, 3) is y – 3 = (x – 1). What is the slope-intercept form of the equation for this line?

y = x + 2

y = x – 4

y = x +

y = x –

On a number line, a number, b, is located the same distance from 0 as another number, a, but in the opposite direction. The number b varies directly with the number a. For example b = 2 when a = –2. Which equation represents this direct variation between a and b?

b = –a

–b = –a

b – a = 0

b(–a) = 0

Alejandra correctly wrote the equation y – 3 = (x – 10) to represent a line that her teacher sketched. The teacher then changed the line so it had a slope of 2, but still went through the same point. Which equation should Alejandra write to represent the new line?

y – 6 = 2(x – 10)

y – 2 = (x – 10)

y – 3 = (x – 2)

y – 3 = 2(x – 10)

Which is the graph of the equation ?

Which of these values could be the slope of the line? Select two options.

–2

Option

A coordinate plane from negative 8 to 8 along the x-axis and from negative 7 to 7 along the y-axis.

1. Plot the point (2, 4).2. From that point, count left 3 units and down 1 unit and plot a second point. 3. Draw a line through the two points.

Which graph represents a function with direct variation?

Option

A coordinate plane with a line passing through (0, negative 3), (2, 0), and (4, 3).

–3x + 2 = y

–x + 2 = y

x – 3 = y

2x – 3 = y

A ramp with a constant incline is made to connect a driveway to a front door. At a point 4 feet from the driveway, the height of the ramp is 12 inches. At a point 6 feet from the driveway, the height of the ramp is 18 inches. What is the rate of change of the ramp’s incline?

inch up per foot across

2 inches up per foot across

3 inches up per foot across

Which equation represents a line that passes through (2, –) and has a slope of 3?

y – 2 = 3(x + )

y – 3 = 2(x + )

y + = 3(x – 2)

y + = 2(x – 3)

Tickets to a basketball game can be ordered online for a set price per ticket plus a $5.50 service fee. The total cost in dollars for ordering 5 tickets is $108.00. Which linear function represents c, the total cost, when x tickets are ordered? (A service fee is a single fee applied to the total, no matter the number of tickets purchased).

c(x) = 5.50 + 20.50x

c(x) = 5.50x + 20.50

c(x) = 5.50 + 21.60x

c(x) = 5.50x + 21.60

Which equation represents a line that passes through (–9, –3) and has a slope of –6?

y – 9 = –6(x – 3)

y + 9 = –6(x + 3)

y – 3 = –6(x – 9)

y + 3 = –6(x + 9)
