    1. As you travel from Tucson to Bisbee (94 miles), you pass through Benson. Benson is 40 miles from
    Tucson. You can assume that you travel at a fairly constant speed. Sketch graphs to represent the
    functions below. Label the axes and any important features of your graphs.

    A. distance from Tucson as a function of time. B. distance from Benson as a function of time

    C. distance from Bisbee as a function of time. D. speed as a function of distance.

    2. The relationship between the tuition, T, and the number of credits, c, at a particular college is given by
    ⎧100 + 120c 0≤c≤6
    T (c ) = ⎨
    ⎩800 + 120(c − 6) 6 < c ≤ 18

    A. What is the tuition for 7 credits?

    C. What is the domain of this function?

    D. What are the practical interpretations of the vertical intercept and the slope?
