Accepted Answer

$y = -3$

Question 3

If $x = 8$, what is the value of $y$ in the equation $5x - 8y = -24$?

Accepted Answer

$y = 7$

Question 4

Which equation below will always produce a horizontal line on the coordinate plane?

Accepted Answer

$y = -2$

Question 5

A printer charges a setup fee of $\$8.50$ and $\$0.05$ for each poster printed. Which equation models the total cost $y$ for $x$ posters?

Accepted Answer

$y = 0.05x + 8.50$

Question 6

If you want to spend no more than $\$24$ on posters, and the cost equation is $y = 0.05x + 8.50$, what is the maximum number of posters you can buy?

Accepted Answer

$x = 500$

Question 7

Which of the following points is a solution to $5x - 8y = -24$?

$(0, -3)$

Question 9

Which of the following best describes the graph of $y = -2$?

Accepted Answer

A horizontal line crossing the $y$-axis at $y = -2$

Question 10

If the printer increases the setup fee to $\$10$ but keeps the per-poster cost at $\$0.05$, what is the new equation for the total cost $y$ for $x$ posters?

Accepted Answer

$y = 0.05x + 10$

Question 11

Which quadrant would the point $(-2, 3)$ be located in on the coordinate plane?

Accepted Answer

Quadrant II

Question 12

If $x = 0$ in the equation $y = -2$, what is the value of $y$?

Accepted Answer

$y = -2$

Question 13

Which of the following equations represents a vertical line?

Accepted Answer

$x = 4$

Question 14

If you solve $5x - 8y = -24$ for $y$ in terms of $x$, what is the resulting equation?

Accepted Answer

$y = \frac{5x + 24}{8}$

Question 15

A student claims that the equation $x = 8$ passes through the point $(8, 0)$. Is this correct?

Accepted Answer

Yes, because $x = 8$ for all $y$
