8. Which statement describing a function of x is true?
A. The graph of y = 3x + 9 is linear and has a y-intercept of 9.
B. The graph of y = 3x is nonlinear and passes through the origin.
C. The graph of y = 3x2 is linear and passes through the point (0, 0).
D. The graph of y = 32x + 9 is nonlinear and passes through the point (0,9).

Which situation can be modeled by the inequality 5 + 10w ≥ 45? a. you start with $5 and save $10 a week until you have at least $45. b. you start with 5 baseball cards and purchase 10 cards every week until you have at most 45 cards. c. you start with 5 water bottles and purchases cases of 10 water bottles each until you have a total of 45 water bottles. d. you spend $5 plus $10 per week until you have less than $45.

Look at this system of equations. -3x + 3y = 12 y = x + 4 the solution set of this system is best explained by which of these statements? a) the graphs of the equations are the same line because the equations have the same slope and the same y-intercept. the system has infinitely many solutions. b) the graphs of the equations are parallel lines because they have the same slope but different y-intercepts. the system has no solution. c) the graphs of the equations are lines that intersect at one point because the equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts. the system has exactly one solution. d) the graphs of the equations are lines that intersect at one point because the equations have the same slope and the same y-intercept. the system has exactly one solution.
