• The slope increases.
• The y-intecept increases.
• The x-intercept increases.
• The x-intercept decreases.
• The y-intercept decreases.
• The slope decreases.

Answer explanation

This is only one possible choice. As long as the y-intercept is less than 3 and the quadratic shows a maximum value for its vertex, it would be correct.

The fuel economy of a car is its average distance traveled per amount of fuel consumed. Cars have different fuel economies when they are driven in the city and on the highway. A linear model of the relationship between the city and highway fuel economies of eight cars, in miles per gallon (mpg) is shown.

Which linear equation best models the scatter plot?

Using the equation from the previous question, what could be the highway fuel economy, in mpg, of a car that has a city fuel economy of 43 mpg? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

This question has two parts. Part 2 will be in the next question.

Giselle has 40 prizes for raffle ticket winners. She gives away 2 prizes each day until she runs out of prizes.

The equation p + 2t = 40 represents the situation, where p is the number of prizes Giselle has left after t days.

Identify the independent variable and graph the relationship.
