Max charges $3.50 per hour when he mows lawns, plus $6.00 for transportation expenses. Which function rule represents the amount y Max charges to mow lawns for x hours? (1 point)
y = 9.50x
y = 6.00x + 3.50
y = 3.50x + 6.00
y = 2.5x
I chose y = 3.50x + 6.00
y = 9.50x
y = 6.00x + 3.50
y = 3.50x + 6.00
y = 2.5x
I chose y = 3.50x + 6.00

The sale price of ground beef at a local grocery store is $1.49 for the first pound and $1.09 for each additional pound. Which function rule shows how the cost of ground beef, y, depends on the number of pounds, x? (1 point)
y = 1.49x + 1.09
y = 1.09(x – 1) + 1.49
y = (1.09 + 1.49)x
y = 1.09x + 1.49
I chose y = 1.09(x – 1) + 1.49
y = 1.49x + 1.09
y = 1.09(x – 1) + 1.49
y = (1.09 + 1.49)x
y = 1.09x + 1.49
I chose y = 1.09(x – 1) + 1.49

so the answer then is y = 1.09x + 1.49?

) Liberty Hill; it rises three-fourths foot for every 1 foot of horizontal travel. This is because Liberty Hill has the highest ratio of vertical rise to horizontal distance, meaning that it is the steepest of the three hills listed in the table.

Yes, you are correct. The steepest hill in the table is Liberty Hill, which rises three-fourths of a foot for every 1 foot of horizontal travel.

You are correct. The function rule that represents the amount y Max charges to mow lawns for x hours is y = 3.50x + 6.00. This is because Max charges $3.50 per hour to mow lawns, which is represented by the term 3.50x. In addition, he charges $6.00 for transportation expenses, which is represented by the constant term of 6.00.

You are very close, but the correct function rule that shows how the cost of ground beef, y, depends on the number of pounds, x is y = 1.49 + 1.09(x-1).
The initial cost of the 1st pound is $1.49 and each additional pound costs $1.09. Since we don't want to count the cost of the 1st pound twice, we only need to add the $1.09 cost to the remaining pounds, which is (x-1).
So, the function rule becomes y = 1.49 + 1.09(x-1) which simplifies to y = 1.09x + 0.4.

No, the correct answer is y = 1.49 + 1.09(x-1) which simplifies to y = 1.09x + 0.4.
This is because the initial cost of 1 pound of ground beef is $1.49 and each additional pound costs $1.09. Since we do not want to include the cost of the first pound again, we only want to add the $1.09 cost to the remaining pounds, which is (x-1).
Therefore, the function rule that shows how the cost of ground beef, y, depends on the number of pounds, x is y = 1.49 + 1.09(x-1), which simplifies to y = 1.09x + 0.4.
