3. Harrison goes to Westin Trillium Resort to relax and enjoy summer with various activities its offers (swimming,
mountain climbing, and play hockey with NHL players. The resort charges a flat fee plus an amount for each hour he
spends on activities. Four days are listed below.

Day Hours on the activities Cost ($)

1 3 $48.00
2 5 $60.00
3 7 $72.00
4 8 $78.00
a. Use 2 points to determine the equation for the relationship between hours on the activities and the cost.

b. Justify that the fourth point in the table also satisfies your equation.

c. Graph the relation on the axis below.

d. Elmhirst Resort is close by and is offering a rate of $12 per hour. Plot this relation on the same set of axis below.

e. Should Harrison go to Elmhirst Resort instead? Explain.

4. Explain what the “a” represent in equation of a line: x = a. Create an example to support your explanation.

5. Explain what it means to solve a linear system. Create an example to support your explanation.

8. Hamza’s cell phone bill for last month was $57.50 for 650 minutes of usage. He was charged $0.05 per minute for
each minute that he was on the phone. Use “C” for cost and “m” for minute.

a. Determine the formula for this relation

b. What was the basic cost for renting the phone?

c. Determine the cost if he talked for 1450 minutes.

8. Draw the following four lines on the same set of axes below, and give the equation of each line in slope y-intercept
form. Label each line!

Line Information Equation in slope, y-intercept form

Line 1 m = -1, y-intercept = 6
Line 2 Perpendicular to Line 1, passes through (1, 7)
Line 3 2y + 4x + 20 = 0
Line 4 Passes through (3, -4) and (5, 0)
Line 5 Slope 0, pass through (1, 6)
