Printer ink costs $16.89 per cartridge. The company that sells the ink cartridges charges a flat rate shipping fee of $4.25, no matter the number of cartridges purchased in a single order. 

 

Which linear function models the total cost, t, for a single order of c cartridges?

• c = 21.14t

• c = 16.89t + 4.25

• t = 21.14c

• t = 16.89c +4.25

A pond in Luke's neighborhood has a depth of 81.6 inches. During the dry season, the pond loses an average of 0.02 inches of water each day. Luke wrote the function below to represent the depth of the pond in inches x days after the dry season begins. Explain Luke's error and rewrite the function correctly.

• f(x) = -0.02(x + 81.6)

• f(x) = -0.02x + 81.6

• f(x) = -0.02x - 81.6

• f(x) = -0.02(x - 81.6)
