What is Slope in Real Life Anyway II?

This worksheet is similar to the one in my previous post, What is Slope in Real Life Anyway, except that the slope here is negative. Students are going to ask, “How can we write an equation when we do not know how many tickets we bought?” This could be your opportunity to come back and say “And what do we use to represent an unknown amount?” This activity presents modeling problems as required by the Common Core standards. The answer key is on page 2.
