Writing Linear 
Equations  
Students will be able to model a relationship 
between two quantities and  
discover new functions can be created from existing functions.  
 

Connection (5 minutes) 

 
Prom season is quickly approaching, Jeremiah begins to think 
about the cost of renting a ​tuxedo​. 
 
 

Teach/Learn (15 minutes) 


1. View the ​Infographic​ on Writing Linear Equations. 
2. Think​ - What did you learn from the infographic? 
Pair​ - With a partner, discuss what you have learned 
from the Infographic. Make sure to listen to each other 
and try to develop a new idea together. 
Share​ -​ ​Your what you have learned from each other, 
make sure to include any ideas created.

Independent Application 
(35 minutes) 
Jeremiah found a tuxedo shop that charges a $135 flat fee for 1 day of rental 
of one of their basic tuxedos w/shoes. His mom decided to hire a 
photographer, so she told Jeremiah he would need the tuxedo for more than 
one day. Jeremiah called, and was informed that the tuxedo shop charges 
$25 per additional day.  
 
Task: Create a Google Doc to respond to the following prompts: Make 
sure to share it with me. 
1. Create an equation that will correctly model the total cost of renting 
a tuxedo for ​x​ number of days. 
2. Jeremiah has a budget of $325 to spend on his attire for the prom. 
Create table demonstrating how many days he is able to rent a 
tuxedo and not go over his budget. 
3. From your model, identify your slope and y-intercept. Explain the 
meaning of the slope and y-intercept in the context of the problem. 
4. What form is your model in, i.e. slope-intercept, point-slope, or 
standard form? Can you convert your model into one or both of the 
other forms, if so, include it in your response to this prompt. When 
would it be beneficial to use each of the forms. 
5. Using the ​Desmos Graphing Calculator​, make a graph of your model 
and/or table. Insert it into the Google Doc. Which form of a linear 
equation is best to use in order to create a graph? 
6. If you were given (7, 175) and (9, 225), which form would you use to 
write an equation? What would that equation be?  
 
 
 

Share (20 minutes) 


Using an electronic device, go to your Flipgrid account, create 
a 3-5 minute video discussing which form is best to model 
Jeremiah’s situation, the amount of days he can rent the 
tuxedo without going over his budget and why.
