Year 8 Unit 11

1 The cost to hire a machine is in two parts.

• A fixed charge of $45.
• A charge of $15 per day.
a Work out the cost for 7 days.
 15x7+45=
 150$
b The cost for t days is $c.
Write down a function for c in terms of t.
 $C=15t+45
2 The depth of water in a tank is changing.
The depth after m minutes is k cm, where .
a Work out the depth after 10 minutes.
 K=150 - 4x10
 K= 110cm
b How much does the depth change each minute?
 The depth change at 4min

 The line crosses the y-axis at the point (0,-40).
b Write down the gradient of the graph.
 The gradient is “20”.
c Find the coordinates of the point where the graph crosses the x-axis.
 The line crosses the x-axis at the point (2,0).

6 A walker starts to walk along a path.

Later, a runner starts to run along the same path.
This graph shows how far they have travelled.

Find the correct numbers to complete these sentences.

a When the runner had been running for 1 hour, they were _________ km apart.
b When they met, they had each travelled 30 km and the runner had been running
for 5 hours.
7 The cost of hiring a car is a fixed charge of $150 plus $50 per day.
a Draw a graph on the below graph paper to show the cost over a period of 7
days.
 The function is C=50d+150
x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
y 200 250 300 350 400 450 500

b Put a cross on the point on the graph that shows the cost of hiring for 4 days.
c Find the gradient of the graph.
 The gradient is “50”.
