If it costs $55 for a plane ticket and $10 per luggage bag you check in, how much will you pay if you have to check in 2 bags?

55 + 10x2 = $75 for the plane ride altogether

Define y-intercept:

the number that crosses (intersects) the y-axis; the base/starting number; the "+b" in your equation

100

DOUBLE Points: Find the y-intercept: y = 5x + 15

15

What is the cost per steak if 3 steaks costs $15.75?

15.75 divided by 3 = $5.25 per pound

DOUBLE Points: if custom shoes cost $25 for the shoes and $15 per hour of work to make them custom, how much do you pay for custom shoes that took 3 hours to make?

25 + 15x3 = $70 for the work and the shoes

Find the slope IN DECIMAL FORM:

y = 2/5 x  + 3

0.4; 0.40; .4

200

Define slope:

the "m" that is multiplied times the "x" values; the increasing/decreasing value in your equation/word problem; the number that includes "each/per/every/an"; change in y/change in x

200

Find the y-intercept: a graph starts a (0,1) and increases by 4 up and 1 to the right

+1 (it's a positive 1 in the 0,1 ordered pair)

If you make $336 for working a full 8 hour work day, how much do you get paid per hour?

336 divided by 8 = $42 per hour

The UBER  App costs $2.99 to install and you pay $1.20 per mile for your UBER Ride. If you take an UBER into Houston from here (30 miles), how much do you pay?

1.2x30 + 2.99 = $38.99 for the total trip

300

Find the slope: a graph starts a (0,1) and increases by 4 up and 1 to the right

4/1 = 4

300

Define linear:

a straight line

300

Find the y-intercept:

x  -1  0  1  2  3

y   0  2  4  6  8

+2 because when x=0, y=positive 2

DOUBLE Points: if you traveled 350 miles in 7 hours, how fast were you travelling in miles per hour?

350 divided by 7 = 50 miles per hour (mph)

A toy store sells LEGOS $0.80 per pound and $5.20 for a set to play on. If you bought 6 pounds of LEGOS, how much do you pay altogether?

0.80x6 + 5.20 = $10 total

400

DOUBLE Points: Find the slope: a graph starts a (0,0) and increases by 10 up and 5 to the right

10/5 = 1/2 or 0.50 (need to simplify)

400

Define origin:

DOUBLE Points: define origin and whether it is proportional or non-proportional

(0,0)

Proportional

400

Find the y-intercept IN DECIMAL FORM:

y = 2/5 x  + 3/2

3/2 = 1.5 or 1.50

If you can win 4 games of Among Us in 3 hours, how many can you predict you will win in 24 hours (one day)?

3x8=24 hours, so 4x8= 32 games

500

How can you tell if a table or graph is non-proporitonal?

DOUBLE Points: Also tell me how can you tell an equation or word problem is non-proportional?

Table: x = a number that isn't 0

Graph: the line does NOT cross the origin (0,0)

Equation: there is another number in the equation (+b)

Word problem: there is a "fee", "one-time charge", "base price", or other value that is not repeated (not mx)

500

Find the slope: a pizza costs $5.99 per medium pizza with a delivery fee of $5

$5.99 (has the word "per")

500

DOUBLE Points: CROC stands for...

Constant Rate Of Change

500

Find the y-intercept: a fair has each ride cost $1.50 and an admission fee of $3.00

$3.00 ($1.50 is the "slope" or "each" cost)

500

What is the y-intercept for a proportional graph?

(0,0) or the "origin"
