You decide to park your car in a parking garage that charges $3.00 for the first hour and $1.00 for each hour (or any part of an hour) after that. How much will it cost to park your car for 90 minutes? How much will it cost to park your car for 118 minutes? 119 minutes? How much will it cost to park your car for 120 minutes? 121 minutes? Graph the cost in relation to the length of time your car is parked. Is this function continuous? Describe how the graph of this function will change if the parking garage raises their parking rate so that the first hour is now $5.00.
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
