    Study Notes

    Linear Functions

    • In the equation d = 30t, d represents the distance in feet from a road marker that a bus will be t seconds after passing the marker.
    • When t = 2, the bus will be 60 feet from the marker.
    • The equation y = 175 represents the cost (y) in dollars for a manufacturer to make x rings.
    • When x = 60, the cost is $175.
    • Juan's biking:
      • He rides at an average rate of 5.7 minutes per mile.
      • The function mx = 5.7x models the time in minutes (mx) it will take Juan to ride x miles.
    • The function f(x) = 3x - 8 defines a linear function with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of (0, -8).
    • Marisol's trip:
      • The equation d = 45t estimates the distance d (in miles) Marisol travels after t hours.
      • 45 represents her average speed of 45 miles per hour.
    • The equation s = 40 + 35t gives the speed s (in miles per hour) of a car t seconds after it begins to accelerate.
    • When t = 5, the car's speed is 55 miles per hour.
    • Brittany's pay:
      • The equation T = 18h + 1000 represents her total take-home pay (T) for her first week, where h is the number of hours worked.
      • When T = 1576, Brittany was paid for 32 hours.
    • The function g(x) = 5x + a is defined with a as a constant; g(4) = 31.
    • Therefore, a = 11.
    • The function f(x) = 100x + 2 is defined.
    • When x = 9, f(x) = 902.
    • Snow Leopard Population
      • The function P(t) = -2t + 550 models the population of snow leopards in a certain area, with t representing years after 1990.
      • The equation P(30) = 550 means that the snow leopard population is predicted to be 550 in the year 2020.
