You rent a boat for a day. The flat charge is $25 with an additional $10 dollars for every hour you have it for. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the total cost, y, after x hours of renting the boat.

y= 10x+25

100

What type of transformation keeps the graph the exact same but moves it to a different place?

A translation.

Rewrite the equation 3x+6y=21 so that it is in slope-intercept form.

y=-1/2x+3.5

200

The parent function of a graph is f(x)=x

What does the equation look like after the graph has been horizontally shrunk by a scale factor of 3 and translated 2 units up?

g(x)=1/3(x+2)

200

Write y=3/5x+2 in point-slope form.

 y-2=3/5(x-0)

 y-2=3/5(x)

Line t has a slope of 2/3. Line m is perpendicular to line t. What is the slope of line m?

-3/2

300

What is the slope of the line -3x+5y=20?

3/5

The water level of a river is 28 feet. During a 5-hour-long rainstorm the level increases by 3 inches per hour. What is the water level at the end of the storm?

29 feet and 3 inches (29.25 feet)

Equation: y=5(1/4)+28

300

Rewrite the equation so that it is translated 4 units right with a horizontal stretch that has a scale factor of 2.

y=3x+5

y=1/2(3x-4)+5

300

A line passes through points (2,3) and (-7,5). Write an equation for this line in point-slope form.

y-2=-2/9(x-3)                    or      y-5=-2/9(x+7)

300

Are lines y=2/3x+8 and -2x+3y=9 parallel or perpendicular?

Parallel; they have the same slope.

400

What is the slope of 15x+3y=9?

-5

400

The slope of a line is -1/4 and it goes through the point (8,3). What is the equation in slope-intercept form?

y=-1/4x+5


400

The parent function of a graph is f(x)=x2

The equation for a translated graph is g(x)=3(-x2)+5

What transformations occurred to the graph?

Vertical stretch, sf:3

Reflection over the x-axis

Vertical translation up 5 units

400

Convert y=3/4x-5 to standard form.

3x-4y=20

400

The equation for a line is y=1/3x-4

Is the line 3x-y=9 parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

Perpendicular; when solved for slope-intercept form, the equation is y=-3x-9, which has an opposite reciprocal slope to the first equation, making it perpendicular.
