Caitlin has a movie rental card worth $175.  After she rents the first movie, the card’s value is $172.25.  After she rents the second movie, its value is $169.50.  After she rents the third movie, the card is worth $166.75.  

Part A:  Assuming the pattern continues, define your variables and write an equation to model this situation. 

Part B:  If she only rents a movie every other week, will she be able to use her card to rent movies for over a year?  Explain.  (hint – there are 52 weeks in a year)

y=-2.75x+175; x is movies rented, y is money left; Yes

Jason modeled the equation 4y=x+12 on a graph. He needs to graph a line that is parallel to this and passes through the point (8,1) and one that is perpendicular and passes through the same point.  Record the two equations Jason should use to graph these additional lines.

y=1/4x-1 parallel; y=-4x+33 perpendicular

April took a cab from the airport to her hotel while on vacation in Washington DC. The cab ride from Dulles International Airport to her hotel was a total of 15 miles and it costs $25.50 without tip. The cabbie charged $1.50 per mile for the entire trip. Write a linear equation that could be used to find the cost of a cab ride in this cab from Dulles to anywhere in DC.
