In one day, Jerry said 6200 words. If on that same day, Ms. Widman said only said 3350, using the RATIO METHOD to compare the two numbers and state your answer in a final sentence.
6200/3350 = 1.85 Jerry said 1.85 times the amount of words as Ms Widman. OR For every 1 word Ms. Widman said, Jerry said 1.85.

Interpret the rate of change from the formula P = 33N - 1600 if P stands for Profit in dollars and N stands for the number of items sold by a company.
33/1 = $33/1 item = For every 1 item the company sells, the make $33 profit.

Determine if the following table could represent a linear function. (x = 0 2 5 7) (5 15 30 58)
No linear. The RoC is not the same between each set of points.

Solve P = R - C for the variable R.
R = P + C

My car gets 26 miles per gallon in the city. If gas currently costs $3.77 per gallon, find the cost per mile to drive my car. Use dimensional analysis.
(1 gallon/26 miles)($3.77/gallon) = $15 per mile.

Determine if the following table could represent a linear function. (x = -4 -1 5 7) (0 18 54 66)
Yes, linear. Constant RoC
