A DJ charges a setup fee plus an hourly fee to provide music for a dance party. Use the graph to write an equation in slope-intercept form to represent the amount spent, y, on x hours of music. 

• y = 75x + 100

• y = 100x

• y= 100x + 75

• y = 75x

The GPA of a student can be predicted using the equation
y = 1.4 x + 1.4  where x is the hours the student spends studying.  What is the expected GPA of a student that spends no hours studying?

• 2.4

• 1.4

• not enough information

• 2.8

The Roaming Cell Phone Company charges $15.00 per month plus $0.20 per minute of airtime usage.  If Juanita uses x minutes of airtime, what is an equation that can be used to determine her monthly cell phone bill (C)?

• C = 0.20x + 15

• C =15 (0.20x)

• C = 15 + x + 0.20

• C = 0.20 + 15x

Speedy Boat Rental charges a $15 deposit fee plus $2 for each hour of use to rent a paddle boat.  Write an equation for C, the total cost, to rent the boat for h hours.

• h = 2C + 15

• C = 15h + 2

• h = 15C + 2

• C = 2h + 15

A golf course charges $15 to rent golf clubs and charges $25 per round to play.  Write an equation to represent the total cost, T, for one player.

• T = 15 + 25r

• T = 15g + 25r

• T = 40 r

• T = 15r + 25
