Interpreting Linear Functions Practice

The amusement park charges $20 to get in plus $1.50 per ride. Which linear equation below represents this relationship.

• y=1.5+20x

• y=1.5x + 20

• y = 20x + 1.5

• y= 21.5x

A holiday meal costs $12.50 a person plus a delivery fee of $30.  Which equation represents the amount a holiday meal costs, including delivery, for x people?

• y = 30 + 12.5x 

• y = 12.5 + 30

• y = 12.5 + 30x

If I join the gym for a start up fee of $40 and monthly fee of $10, what equation models this?

• y = 10x - 40

• y = 40x + 10

• y = 10x + 40

• y = 40x - 10

Tim bought a new phone. He paid $125 on the day of purchase, then $50 per month until it was paid off. What linear equation models this situation?

• y = 50x - 135

• y = 50x + 125

• y = 125 + 50

• y = 50x
