Connecting Representations to Functions

What is the equation of the line?

• y = -3/4x + 3

• y = 4/5x + 3

• y = -4/5x + 3

• y = -4/5x

A camp charges families a fee of $625 per month for one child and a certain amount more per month for each additional child. Use the graph to write an equation in slope-intercept form to represent the amount a family with x additional children would pay.

• y = 625x + 225

• y = 225x 

• y = 225x + 625

• y =  625

Pablo has $12. He earns $7 for every lawn he mows. Write an equation to find the amount of money "y" he will have after "x" number of lawns.

• y = 12x + 7

• y = 7x + 12

What is the slope?

• -1/3

• -3

• -4

• 5

In slope intercept form (y=mx+b) what is the "m"?

• The y-intercept

• The x-intercept

• The slope (rate of change)

• A point

Jenny writes the equation y = 1/2x +5.
Why is she incorrect?

• The slope is -2, the equation should be
  y = -2x + 5

• The y-intercept is 4, the equation should be y = -2x + 4

• The slope is -1/2, the equation should be
   y = -1/2x + 5

• The y-intercept is -5, the equation should be y = -2x - 5

Function A is represented by the table. Function B is represented by the equation y = 3x - 4. Which function has the greatest rate of change?

• Function A because it has a rate of change of 1/2 and Function B has a rate of change of 1/3.

• Function B because it has a rate of change of 3 and Function A has a rate of change of 2.

• Function B because it has a rate of change of -4 and Function A has a rate of change of -10.

• Function A because it has a rate of change of 10/7 and Function B has a rate of change of 3.
