A car rental company charges a flat fee of $20 plus $0.15 per mile driven. Write a linear equation to represent the total cost (C) in terms of miles driven (m). What is the slope and what does it represent?
C = 20 + 0.20m; Slope = 0.20 (cost per mile)
C = 20 + 0.10m; Slope = 0.10 (cost per mile)
C = 20 + 0.15m; Slope = 0.15 (cost per mile)
C = 15 + 0.15m; Slope = 0.15 (cost per mile)

Maria is saving money to buy a new bike. She currently has $50 and saves $10 each week. Write a linear equation to represent her savings (S) after w weeks. What is the y-intercept and what does it represent?
S = 10w; y-intercept = 0 (no initial savings)
S = 50 + 5w; y-intercept = 50 (initial savings)
S = 50 - 10w; y-intercept = 50 (initial savings)
S = 50 + 10w; y-intercept = 50 (initial savings)

A school is planning a field trip. The cost per student is $30, and there is a fixed cost of $200 for the bus. Write a linear equation for the total cost (C) in terms of the number of students (n). What is the slope and what does it represent?
C = 30n; slope = 0
C = 30n + 200; slope = 30
C = 20n + 200; slope = 20
C = 30n + 100; slope = 30

A phone company offers a plan that costs $25 per month plus $0.10 per text message. Write a linear equation for the total monthly cost (C) in terms of the number of text messages (t). What does the slope represent in this context?
C = 25t + 0.10; the slope represents the total cost.
C = 25 + 0.10t; the slope (0.10) represents the cost per text message.
C = 0.10 + 25t; the slope represents the monthly fee.
C = 0.10t; the slope represents the number of text messages.

A local gym charges a membership fee of $50 plus $5 for each class attended. Write a linear equation to represent the total cost (C) in terms of the number of classes (c). What is the y-intercept and what does it represent?
C = 50 + 5c; y-intercept = 50, representing the membership fee.
C = 50 + 10c; y-intercept = 50, representing the membership fee.
C = 50c + 5; y-intercept = 5, representing the cost per class.
C = 5 + 50c; y-intercept = 5, representing the total cost.

A bookstore sells notebooks for $2 each and has a fixed cost of $100 for supplies. Write a linear equation for the total revenue (R) in terms of the number of notebooks sold (n). What is the slope and what does it represent?
R = 2n; slope = 2, representing revenue per notebook sold.
R = 2n + 50; slope = 2, representing total cost per notebook sold.
R = 5n; slope = 5, representing profit per notebook sold.
R = 100 + 2n; slope = 100, representing fixed costs.
