9.) Suppose that the water level of a river is 34 feet and that it is receding at a rate of 0.5
foot per day. Write an equation for the water level, L, after d days. In how many days will the
water level be 26 feet?
10.) For babysitting, Nicole charges a flat fee of $3, plus $5 per hour. Write an equation for
the cost, C, after h hours of babysitting. What do you think the slope and the y-intercept
represent? How much money will she make if she baby-sits 5 hours?
11.) A candle burned at a steady rate. After 32 minutes, the candle was 11.2 inches tall.
Eighteen minutes later, it was 10.75 inches tall. Use an equation in slope intercept form
to determine the height of the candle after 2 hours.

9.) L= 34 -0.5d ; It will take 16 days

10.) C= 5h +3; Slope is how much you make for each hour and the y-intercept is the
starting fee. In 5hours she will make 28 dollars.
11.) t= time spent melting and h= height of candle over time; h= 0.025t +12
