Warm Up The senior class is selling tickets for a car wash to raise money for Grad Nite. Since pickup trucks, vans, and SUVs are bigger vehicles they are charged more than cars. Write an equation to model how much money was raised. What information do you need to solve the problem? The price cars are charged. The number of cars washed. The price of vans, SUVs, and trucks are charged. The number of vans, SUV’s, and trucks washed. How much money is raised. $4.00 $6.00 $ c c t t

Example 2 Example 2 You buy a $1200 stereo on the layaway plan at your local Wally World. You put $200 down and then make payments of $40 a week until it’s paid off. A.Write an equation to model the situation. B.Graph the model. A. a = −40t a = amount owed t = time in weeks B Amount Owed Number of Weeks
Standard Form (Ax + By = C) The easiest method for graphing a line in Standard Form is finding the x and y-intercepts. x-intercept= where the line crosses the x-axis y-intercept= where the line crosses the y-axis Graph 3x + 2y = 6 x y x-intercepty-intercept (set y = 0) 3x + 2(0) = 6 3x = 6 (set x = 0) 2y = 6 y = 3 3(0) + 2y = 6 2.3: Quick Graphs of Linear Equations, p. 82 Example 3 Example 3
