    Linearity and Symmetry
    1. GAMES Pedro decided to measure how close to a 4. ASTRONOMY The graph shows the velocity of the
    target he and his friends could throw a football. They space probe Cassini as it passed Saturn. Suppose
    counted 1 point for each foot away from the target that scientists design another space probe, Cassini 2. The
    the football landed. The graph of points versus table shows the velocity of Cassini 2 as it passes
    distance thrown is shown here. State whether the Saturn. State whether each function is a linear
    graph has line symmetry or point symmetry. If so, function. Explain.
    identify any lines of symmetry or points of symmetry. Cassini Velocity

    Cassini 2 Velocity
    Time (s) 5 10 15 20 25
    Velocity 50,000 60,000 70,000 60,000 50,000
    line symmetry; x = 50
    (mph)
    2. BASKETBALL Tony tossed a basketball. Below is a Cassini: Linear function: all the points on
    graph showing the height of the basketball as a the graph lie on a single straight line.
    function of time. State whether the graph has line Cassini 2: Nonlinear function; when the
    symmetry or point symmetry. If so, identify any lines ordered pairs are graphed, there is not a
    of symmetry or points of symmetry. single straight line through all the points.
    5. SWIMMING POOL A swimming pool is shaped as
    shown below. The total perimeter is 500 feet.

    a. Write an equation that relates x and y.


    Sample answer: 2x + 2y + 10 = 500
    b. Is the equation that relates x and y linear? Explain.
    line symmetry; x = 0.4 Yes; it can be written in y = mx + b form.
    3. PROFIT Paul charges people $25 to test the air c. Graph the equation. State whether the graph has
    quality in their homes. The device he uses to test air line symmetry or point symmetry.
    quality cost him $500. The function y = 25x – 500
    describes Paul’s net profit, y, as a function of the
    number of clients he gets, x. State whether the
    function is a linear function. Write yes or no. Explain.
    point symmetry
    Yes; it is in y = mx + b form.
