The trade-in value, V, of a certain model of automobile can be determined using the function V(x)=25000-0.25x, where x is the mileage. Which of the following statements is the best interpretation of the slope?

• The value of the car increases as the mileage increases.

• The selling price of the car when it is new is $25,000.

• The trade-in value of the car decreases $4 for every additional mile driven.

• The trade-in value of the car decreases $1 for every additional 4 miles driven.

Printer ink costs $18.99 per cartridge. The company that sells the ink cartridges charges a flat rate shipping fee of $7.95, 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 = 26.94t

• c = 18.99t + 7.95

• t = 26.94c

• t = 18.99c + 7.95
