USE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION TO ANSWER THE NEXT 5 QUESTIONS:
The town of San Simon charges its residents for trash pickup and water usage on the same bill. Each month the city charges a flat fee for trash pickup and a fee of $0.25 per gallon for water used. In January, one resident used 44 gallons of water, and received a bill for $16.
1

If x is the number of gallons of water used during a month, and y represents the bill amount in dollars, write a point (x1, y1).

1

What does $0.25 per gallon represent?

1

Reason abstractly. Use point-slope form to write an equation that represents the bill cost y in terms of the number of gallons of water x used in a month.

Jay pays a flat fee each month for basic cable service. He also pays $3.50 for each movie he orders during the month. Last month, he ordered 5 movies and his total bill came to $54.

Write an equation in point-slope form that represents the total bill, y, in terms of the number of movies, x.
