Interpret Linear Equations in Context

To prepare for a recent road trip, Jill filled up her 19-gallon tank. She estimates that her SUV will use about three gallons per hour. Write an equation to model the amount of gasoline, G, remaining in her tank after t hours.

• G=19 – 3t

• G=19 + 3t

• G=3 - 19t

• G=3 + 19t

Roberto deposits the same amount

of money each month into a checking

account. Use the table to write an

equation to model his balance, B,

after m months.

• B = 200 + 55m

• B = 200 - 55m

• B = 200m + 55

• B = 200m - 55

On a recent scuba diving trip, Kate and Kara reached a depth of 130 feet. Six-and- a-half minutes later after ascending at a constant rate, they reached the surface. Write an equation to represent their distance, D, as a function of time, t.

• D = 130 – 20t

• D = 130 + 20t

• D = 20 – 130t

• D = 20 + 130t

College tuition at Bedrock University has increased $500 per year for the past six years. Wilma is a freshmen this year and paid $10,250 for her tuition. She is curious about her tuition in the coming years and needs this information as motivation to graduate in four years. Assuming the tuition rate increase remains constant, write an equation to represent the tuition at Bedrock University in x years.

• T = 10,250 + 500t where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250 - 500t where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250t + 500 where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250t - 500 where t is time since your freshmen year
