Test on Writing Equation of Linear Equation

A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour of service. What information is given and what equation should you use?

• A slope and a y - intercept are given; use y = mx + b.

• A slope and a y - intercept are given; use y - y1 = m(x - x1).

• Two points are given; use y - y1 = m(x - x1).

• Two different items that add to a total are given; use Ax + By = C

When 4 people attend the movie theater, it costs $23.96. When 7 people attend the movie theater, it costs $41.93. What information is given and which equation should you use?

• A slope and y - intercept are given, use y = mx + b.

• A slope and y - intercept are given, use y - y1 = m(x - x1).

• Two points are given; use y - y1 = m(x - x1).

• Two different items that add to a total are given; use Ax + By = C.

You and your friends go to the movies and purchase some popcorn and Pepsi. Popcorn is sold for $4.99 per bag and Pepsi is sold for $1.99 per bottle. You each chip in to pay $24.92. Write an equation to represent the given situation.

• y = 1.99x + 4.99

• y = 4.99x + 24.92

• y - 1.99 = 4.99(x - 24.92)

• 1.99x + 4.99y = 24.92

A caterer charges $100 to cater a party for 10 people and $175 for 25 people. Write an equation for the given situation.

• y = 25x + 100

• y - 100 = 5(x - 10)

• y - 175 = 10(x - 25)

• 100x + 175y = 35
