The French club and soccer team are washing cars to earn money. The amount earned, y dollars, for washing x cars is a linear function. Which group makes the most money per car? Explain.
Gym A charges $60 a month plus $5 per visit. The monthly cost at Gym B is represented by \(\text{y} = 5\text{x} + 40\), where x is the number of visits per month. What conclusion can you draw about the monthly costs of the gyms?
Why will the value of y for the function \(\text{y} = 5\text{x} + 1\) always be greater than that for the function \(\text{y} = 4\text{x} + 2\text{ when }x \gt 1\)?
The equations of two functions are \(\text{y} = -21\text{x} + 9\) and \(\text{y} = -24\text{x} + 8\). Which function is changing more quickly? Explain.
