Linear Equations Final Project

You have been given a situation that can be modeled by a linear function. As a group it is your job to decide what function defines the situation and to prepare a poster that tells the class everything you know about this function. We have learned many ways to describe and define functions and now is your chance to show what you know! A good place to start might be by reviewing your notes or looking through chapter 5 in your book. That might jog your memory on what weve learned. Your poster should include, but is not limited to the following: Your function represented as an equation, table of values and in words. What any variable you are using represent.(a let statement) A graph(appropriately labeled and scaled) for your function Remember the independent variable goes on the horizontal axis, the dependent variable goes on the vertical axis. The domain and range of your function What type of variation your function has. Any assumptions you might have made while creating your function At least one challenging question for you classmates to solve relating to your function. Any additional information or graphics you feel would be useful. You will be marked based on the attached rubric. Be sure to read it before starting so you know what is expected. To buy a quart of paint at Rona costs $23.00 and one quart covers 50 square feet. Determine the total cost of paint as a function of the number of square feet you will be painting.

If your bedroom was 11' by 8' with 9' ceilings, a single 3' foot by 2' window and a standard 2' by 8' door, how much will it cost you to paint your walls? If your bedroom is 4 m by 3 m with a 3 m ceiling and a 0.75m by 2.5 m door, what would it cost to paint your walls?

When you call for a taxi the operator tells you that there is a flat rate of $3.00 plus an additional 25 cents/min. Write an appropriate equation that will help you determine the total cost as a function of time.

If you hire a taxi and drive for half an hour what will be your total cost? If the total cost of your ride is $63.70 how long did you drive for?

The Brick is offering a special on all in-store purchases that states You only pay half the taxes Assuming the current rates of g.s.t.(5%) and p.s.t.(7%) determine an equation that would tell you how much tax you will pay on your purchase as a function of the price before tax.

Your math teacher tells the class she will give you your Math 9 mark PLUS an additional 25% of your Math 9 mark if you can determine an equation that would define the new mark. Write an equation of your new mark as a function of your Math 9 mark? Your friend received a mark of 78% in math 9, what will be their mark in Math 10 according to the formula? Your math 9 mark was 13% better than your friend's. What will be your math 10 mark?
