Modeling with Linear Functions · Exercise 3
Graph and interpret applications of slope–intercept form of a linear function.
Edwin pays a monthly fee for water service on his apartment of $18 plus an additional $0.30 for each HCF (hundred cubic feet) of water used.
ⓐ Write a cost function, C(w), which will give his monthly cost as a function of water used, w, in hundred cubic feet.
ⓑ
\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text{w (in HCF)} & \text{C(w) (in $)} \\ \hline \text{65} & \\ \hline \text{80} & \\ \hline\end{array}
ⓒ On a certain month Edwin’s bill seems high at $50. How many HCF’s of water did Edwin use that month.
ⓓ Graph the function below. Be sure to show the scale you are using.
