Question 1
1.

In 1970, the average life expectancy in the U.S was 75.2 years. In 2000, the
average life expectancy was 78.8 years. Assuming the trend is linear, what will
be the average life expectancy in 2020?

Question 2
2.

The oak tree in your backyard is 15 feet tall. When you planted it 2 years ago,
it was just 7 feet tall. If the growth can be modeled by a linear equation, how
tall will the tree be in 5 years?

Question 3
3.

In the year 2010, a 40-inch LCD television cost about $2,500. In 2018, you
can buy the same television for about $1,100. Assuming a linear rate of depreciation, how much less does the television cost this year than last year

Question 4
4.

Attendance at Lincoln high school has increased linearly for the past 10
years. 5 years ago, Lincoln had 1,235 students. Now Lincoln has 1,705 students. If the growth continues, how many students will attend Lincoln in 3
years?

Using the line of best fit, what is the predicted heart rate of a girl whose walking heart rate is 125 bpm, to the nearest whole number?

Question 25
25.

Let’s consider a situation where the Williams family is coming home from visiting relatives. Mrs. Williams has to drive 350 miles in order to get home. Even though there is road construction, the family still drives at a constant rate; however, it takes them longer to drive home than it did to get to their relatives' house. Shonda Williams was bored, so she kept track of how many miles, y, remained until they got home after a certain amount of time, x, had passed. Shonda’s data appears in the table below.


Use the interactive below to help you determine the slope of the function representing the Williams family’s return trip home.
