John is buying new tools with $60. He needs to buy hammers which cost $15 and wrenches that cost $10. If he needs to buy 2 hammers, how many wrenches can he buy?

15x+10y=60

15(2)+10y=60

30+10y=60

10y=30

y=3   John can buy 3 wrenches

Ryan is selling toys. He sells 30 toys for $265. If the number of toys is represented by t and the cost is represented by C(t), write this scenario in function notation

C(30)=265

If a problem asks you "what does the slope mean in the context of the problem" what do you do?

Slope is the change in y over change in x. So you explain as the output does ____ the input does _____. Where output and input replaced with the units of both variables

Given the equation 10x+15y=-15

Rewrite it in a way to QUICKLY find the y intercept

15y=-15-10x

y=-1-(10/15)x

400

What are the 3 ways to find slope?

change y/change x

y2-y1/x2-x1

rise over run

400

What are the 3 equations we have been working with?

Adam bought a new shelf for his shoes. If he puts only his crocs(y) on the shelf he can fit 10. If he puts only sneakers(x) on the shelf he can fit 5. Write an equation that shows the relationship of this linear function. 

y intercept: (0,10)    x intercept: (5,0)

slope: 0-10/5-0=-10/5=-2

y=-2x+10
