Three questions on equations of vertical and horizontal lines. Algebra One. Clear and concise answers, preferably on the document itself, if possible. One question involves drawing a graph. Thank you. 

 

 

Assignment: Equations of Vertical and Horizontal Lines
Write equations for the horizontal and vertical lines described in the real-world situations below.
1. In many cities and towns across the United States, the numbering system of the
roads is based on a grid, similar to the latitude and longitude lines on a globe.
Suppose the green lines in the following graph represent two east-west and two
north-south running roads in a Midwestern town. y
10 5 -10 -5 5 10 x -5 -10 Write equations for the two horizontal and two vertical lines that represent roads in
the town. 2. The Willis Tower (formerly known as the Sears Tower) in Chicago, Illinois, is the
tallest building in the United States. Measuring 1,450 feet, the tower contains 110
stories filled with a combination of office and retail space. The base of the tower is
made up of nine 75’ × 75’ squares. Suppose the square graphed on the coordinate
plane below represents the base of the Willis Tower. © K12 Inc. Write equations for the two horizontal and two vertical lines that pass through the
square. 3. Think of another real-world situation that might involve horizontal and vertical lines.
Write a description of the situation and draw the graph of a coordinate plane with two
horizontal and two vertical lines to represent your situation. Draw the lines so that two
of them pass through positive values and the other two pass through negative values
on the coordinate plane. Then write equations for all four of the lines on your graph. © K12 Inc.
