B) 8 represents the y-intercept/initial value
C) The graph is a linear relationship.
D) As the time increases, the amount of water increases

B) y = 3x - 2
C) y = -3/1x - 2
D) y = 1/3x + 1
  • 4. 4. (F4)

    Based on this graph, determine the equation for the line shown:
A) y = 2x
B) y = 1x + 2
C) y = x + 1
D) y = 2x + 1

  • 8. 8. (EE5)

    Two scenarios have been given. Which description is true?
A) Scenario 2 has a rate that is greater than scenario 1.
B) Scenarios 1 has a rate that is greater than scenario 2
C) Scenario 2 cannot be compared because it is not in a graph.
  • 9. 13. (EE6)

    Explain why ∆ACB is similar to ∆DFE and deduce that AB has the
    same slope as BE . Choose the BEST answer
A) ABC is similar to DFE because they are both triangles
B) ABC is similar to DFE because they both are graphed on a line
C) ABC is similar to DFE because they both share a proportional slope.
  • 10. 14. (EE6)

    What can be concluded by these two triangles?
A) The triangles do not describe the slope.
B) The triangles show different slopes, therefore they are not similar triangles
C) They show that the two triangles are congruent because they share the same slope which is 3/2
D) Triangle A represents a positive slope and triangle B represents a negative slope.
  • 11. 15.

    A linear equation, is shown on the graph. Write an equation for the line.

    If the slope were to change to 3, describe how the new line would look. (remember if you can't visualize this...you can always graph it on paper to physically see, but it is not required).

  • 12. John started his very own savings account. He had a starting balance that he put in the bank and added more money every month.

    Identify the slope AND describe what it means in this situation. Then, determine the y-intercept AND explain what it means in this situation.

    Finally, write an equation that models the situation.
