Question

davonne monthly gym fee,g, is anfunction of.the nimbee of visits, v , she has each month. she pays $35 each month plus $5 per visit. Write a linear function for this situation.

Answer 1

Given:

`\begin{gathered} g\text{ is the monthly gym f}ee \\ v\text{ is the number of visits} \end{gathered}`

Recall the equation of a linear function,

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{where m is the slope or rate of change} \\ b\text{ is the initial value or y-intercept} \end{gathered}`

Comparing these to the situation given, the linear function that describes the situation is;

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ g=5v+35 \\ \\ \text{where m is the fe}e\text{ per visit.} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the linear function for the situation is;

`g=5v+35`
