Question

Using the linear relationship graphed above, estimate the percent of return customers if 80% of customers wait more than 10 minutes in line.

Question

A grocery store manager explored the relationship between the percent of customers that wait more than 10 minutes in line and the percent of return customers at the store. The manager collects information from 6 checkout lines, shown in the table below.

Use the graph below to plot the points and develop a linear relationship between the percent of waiting customers and the percent of return customers.

Question

How much water should be consumed every two hours for a person to run 16 miles?

  • Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.

 

Question

A runner finds that the distance they run in miles, D, is dependent on the ounces of water consumed every two hours, x, and can be modeled by the function

D(x)=1.5x.

Draw the graph of the distance function by plotting its D-intercept and another point.

Answer:

Question

Using the linear relationship graphed above, estimate the percent of snack purchases if 80% of customers wait in line for more than 15 minutes.

 

Question

A ticket taker at a movie theater explored the relationship between the percent of customers that wait more than 15 minutes in line for tickets and the percent of customers that purchase snacks at the theater. The ticket ticker collects information from 6 lines during a particular week, shown in the table below.

Use the graph below to plot the points and develop a linear relationship between the percent of waiting customers and the percent of snack purchases at a movie theater.

Question

How much time did a person spend at the library over a month for them to spend 40 hours reading a book?

  • Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.

 

Question

A librarian finds that the number of hours spent reading a book over a month, R, is dependent on the numbers of hours a person spends at the library over the course of a month, x, and can be modeled by the function

R(x)=26+1.5x.

Draw the graph of the reading function by plotting its R-intercept and another point.
