Parts of a Linear Expression in Context

Moche started a summer business of mowing lawns. However, before he could mow lawns, he needed to purchase supplies (a lawnmower among other needs). Moche spent $395 gathering necessary materials. He makes on average $60 per lawn, mowed. Write an equation to show Moche his earnings for L lawns mowed.

• m = 60L - 395

• m = 60L + 395

• m = 60 - 395L

• m = 60 + 395L

Margaret purchased a new bar of soap. Three days after she originally used the soap, she was curious how much soap per day she was using. She decided to weigh her soap and found that the bar was 103 grams. Four days later she re-measured the same bar of soap and recorded a weight of 80 grams. Assuming that Margaret uses the same amount of soap daily (and that she used the soap daily), write an equation that shows the amount of soap remaining after d days of use.

• S = 120.25 – 5.75d

• S = 120.25 + 5.75d

• S = 120.25d – 5.75

• S = 120.25d + 5.75

College tuition at Bedrock University has increased $500 per year for the past six years. Wilma is a freshmen this year and paid $10,250 for her tuition. She is curious about her tuition in the coming years and needs this information as motivation to graduate in four years. Assuming the tuition rate increase remains constant, write an equation to represent the tuition at Bedrock University in x years.

• T = 10,250 + 500t where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250 - 500t where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250t + 500 where t is time since your freshmen year

• T = 10,250t - 500 where t is time since your freshmen year
