1. Suppose you belong to a tennis club that has a monthly fee of $100 and a charge of $5 per hour to play. Prepare a table and draw a curve to show the relationship between the hours of tennis (on the horizontoal axis) and the monthly club bill (on the vertical axis). For the table and graph use 5, 10, 15, and 20 hours of tennis.
Find the slope of the curve per ______.
The slope of the curve is ______ per ______.
Suppose you start with 10 hours of tennis and then decide to increase your tennis time by 3 hours. On your curve show the inital point and the new point. By how much will your monthly biill increase?____
Suppose you start with 10 hours and then decide to spend an additional $30 on tennis. On your curve, show the initial point and the new point . How many additional hours can you get?_______
