Suppose that a bike rents for $4 plus $1.50 per hour. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that models this situation.

• y = 4x + 1.50

• y = 1.50x + 4

• y = -4x +1.50

• y = 4x - 1.50

An airplane 30,000 feet above the ground begins descending at a rate of 2,000 feet per minute. Write an equation to model the situation.

• y = - 2,000x + 30,000

• y = - 2,000x - 30,000

• y = 30,000x + 2,000

• y = -30,000x + 2,000

Which of these represents slope-intercept form?

• y - y₁ = m(x-x₁)

• Ax + By = C

• y = mx + b
