  1. The cost of renting a hall is $\$300$ plus $\$50$ per person. If the cost is represented by $C$ and the number of people by $p$, an equation that models this scenario is $\cdots$?
    $p=300+50C$
    $C=300-50p$
    $C=300+50p$
    $p=300-50C$
  2. A hall can accommodate a maximum of $100$ persons. The cost of renting the hall is $\$350$ plus an additional $\$45$ per person. What is the maximum amount the hall management can make any time they rent the hall?
    $\$4850$
    $\$4800$
    $\$4750$
    $\$4700$
  3. If a physical situation is modelled by the equation $C=-2h+35$, the significance of the $-2$ in this equation is $\cdots$?
    $C$ increases by $2$ whenever $h$ increases by $1$
    $C$ increases by $2$ whenever $h$ increases by $2$
    $C$ decreases by $2$ whenever $h$ increases by $2$
    $C$ decreases by $2$ for every unit increase in $h$

  6. A certain worker's weekly wage is given by $W=20h$, where $h$ is the number of hours worked each week and $W$ is the wage. A possible interpretation of the $20$ in this equation is that $\cdots$
    the worker is paid $\$20$ every hour
    the worker works for $20$ hours each week
    the worker is paid $\$20$ every week
    the worker gets $\$20$ per day.

  8. Consider the equation $d=-2t+10$. A physical situation modelled by this equation could be $\cdots$?
    a person walks at $10$ km/h and is moving away from a place $2$ km away
    a person walks at $10$ km/h and is moving towards a place $2$ km away
    a person walks at $2$ km/h and is moving away from a place $10$ km away
    a person walks at $2$ km/h and is moving towards a place $10$ km away.
  9. A person runs towards a building that is $5$ km away. The person's speed is $1.5$ km/h. At any hour $t$, let the person's distance from the building be $d$. Then $\cdots$
    $d=5-1.5t$
    $d=5+1.5t$
    $5t-1.5$
    $5t+1.5$
