CPS Algebra 1 and Algebra 1 Honors Common Assessment #2 Review

Yuson must complete a certain number of hours of community service. She does 2 hours of service each day. After 8 days, Yuson has completed half of her
required community service.
Write a linear equation to represent the hours that Yuson has left to do after x days.
y=_x+_

Answer 1

Yuson has completed half of the required hours, which is:

• 8*2 = 16

Total hours that must be completed is:

• 16*2 = 32

The required equation is:

• y = 2x + (- 32) or
• y = 2x - 32
