Illustrative Math Grade 8 Unit 3 Review

Front

What is the total pay for an emergency room nurse who works a 12-hour shift at $8 per hour with a $50 sign-on bonus?

Back

Total pay = (Hourly rate * Hours worked) + Sign-on bonus = (8 * 12) + 50 = $146.

How do you determine if a point lies on the line represented by the equation 3x + 5y = 45?

Back

Substitute the x and y values of the point into the equation. If the equation holds true, the point lies on the line.

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What is the significance of the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, representing the value of y when x = 0.

Front

What does it mean for a line to have a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope means that as x increases, y also increases, indicating a direct relationship between the two variables.
