Solution

• The independent variable is time, measured in hours. • The dependent variable is elevation, increased elevation in feet, or height. A possible verbal description is “height equals 250 times time.” The equation height = 250*time corresponds to this relationship.

Constructing a table based on the equation:

Time (hours) Elevation (feet)
1 250
2 500
3 750
4 1000
5 1250
6 1500
7 1750
8 2000

Type the correct answer in each box.Joan is hiking. She wants to cover 1,600 feet. She hikes 600 feet every 3 hours.  The equation of the line that models y, the distance left to hike, after hiking for x hours is y = x + . It will take Joan hours to hike 1,600 feet.

Graph the hikers' progress.The first point on the line coincides with the _________ rate:the rate of increase in elevation of _______ feet per hour.The graph starts at the _____________, because the hikersstarted at base camp.The last point on the line indicates the total elevation increasefor the duration of the hike

Jacob is training for a marathon. His plan is to run the same distance for 3 days a week, then increase that distance by the same amount each week of training. During week 6, Jacob runs 14 miles per day, which is 1.5 miles more per day than he ran during week 5. Which equation represents the daily running distance, in miles, as a function of time, t, in weeks?Responsesf(t)=0.5t+11f of t is equal to 0 point 5 t plus 11 - no response givenf(t)=0.5t+7f of t is equal to 0 point 5 t plus 7 - no response givenf(t)=1.5t+5f of t is equal to 1 point 5 t plus 5 - no response givenf(t)=1.5t+12.5
