  1. The equation of a partial variation can be given by $y=mx+b$, where $y$ and $x$ are the dependent and independent variables, respectively. Which of the following is true?
    $b=1$
    $b=0$
    $b\neq 0$
    $b=-1$
  2. The graph of a partial variation $y=mx+b\quad\cdots$
    doesn't pass through $(0,0)$
    always passes through $(0,0)$
    always passes through $(0,1)$
    always passes through $(1,0)$
  3. A taxi driver charges $\$5$ plus $\$0.05$ per km. This is an example of a $\cdots$
    direct variation
    inverse variation
    positive variation
    partial variation
  4. An electrician charges $\$45$ for a home visit. If repairs are needed, he charges $\$30$ per hour. Let $A$ be the amount the electrician makes and let $t$ be the time. An equation relating $A$ and $t$ is $\cdots$?
    $A=45t+30$
    $A=45+30t$
    $A=45-30t$
    $A=45(t+30)$
  5. A telephone company charges a base fee of $\$20$ each month. There is an additional fee of $\$0.01$ per international text. In a certain month, Mr. Text sent $200$ international text messages. How much bill will he have to pay?
    $\$220$
    $\$22$
    $\$20$
    $\$2$
  6. An affordable car rental company charges $\$30$ to rent a car, plus an additional $\$2$ for every kilometer the car travels. If the cost is represented by $C$ and the distance by $d$, find an equation connecting the two variables.
    $C=30+2d$
    $C=30(2+d)$
    $C=30-2d$
    $C=30d+2$
