Study Notes
Car Repair Charges
- The slope of the function is $50 per hour, indicating that labor charges increase by $50 for each hour of repair.
- The y-intercept is $75, representing a fixed fee, likely for initial diagnostics or parts prior to labor.
Evaluating Function f(x)
- For the function f(x) = 11 − 6(x − 8), calculating f(−3) leads to a specific numerical result.
Company Employee Growth
- Greg's employee equation: E = 18n + 5 shows an increase of 18 employees per year.
- Alan's employee equation: E = 22n + 10 indicates a growth of 22 employees yearly.
- Alan's company shows faster growth compared to Greg's.
Grocery Store Pricing Domain
- The costing function C(w) for beef depends on weight w.
- The most appropriate domain for this function is positive rational numbers, as weight must be greater than zero and can be a fraction.
Child's Distance from Home
- The graph of John's distance d(t) depicts how far he is from home over time.
- The interval when John is moving closer to home is critical for understanding his movement patterns.
Savings Account Growth
- Enrique starts with $40 and adds $6 weekly to his savings.
- To reach $196, calculations reveal the total number of weeks required to achieve this balance.
Graphing Situational Problems
- A scenario described involves a car accelerating, maintaining speed, then decelerating.
- Identifying the correct graph representation requires an understanding of how speed changes over time.
