A canoe rental service charges $30 dollars an hour plus an initial fee to rent a canoe. If the cost for 4 hours was $140, write an equation representing the cost, y, of renting a canoe for x hours.

y = 30x + 20

y = 20x + 30

y = 50x

y = 60x

A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus a certain amount per hour of service. If 3 hours of service cost $175, write an equation in slope-intercept form for the cost, C, after h hours of service.

C = 50h + 25

C = 25h + 50

C = 50h - 25

H = 25h - 50

An airplane 30,000 feet above the ground begins descending at a constant rate of feet per minute. After 6 minutes the plane was 18,000 feet above the ground. Write an equation to model the situation.

y = - 2,000x + 30,000

y = - 2,000x - 30,000

y = 30,000x + 2,000

y = -30,000x + 2,000

Suppose that a bike rents for a set cost plus $1.50 per hour. If 3 hours costs you $8.50, write an equation in slope-intercept form that models this situation.

y = 4x + 1.50

y = 1.50x + 4

y = -4x +1.50

y = 4x - 1.50
