When solving a system of equations, you are trying to find whether or not two or more lines  __________.

Intersect

____

Possibility 1:

The two lines intersect each other resulting in an (x, y) pair.

Possibility 2:

The results of the system of equations is: 0 = n, where n is any number other than 0. This means there is no solution. Think of parallel lines.

Possibility 3:

The result of the system of equations is: 0 = 0. This means the lines are identical. There is an infinite number of solutions. Think of one line lying on top of the other line.

How do you test if a graph is a function?

a) Vertical line test

b) Horizontal line test

c) Function line test


VERTICAL LINE TEST

If a vertical line drawn anywhere on the graph of a relation only intersects the graph at one point, then that graph represents a function. If a vertical line can intersect the graph at two or more points, then the graph does not represent a function.

When solved graphically, which system of equations will have exactly one point of intersection?

 A) y = x + 2

     y = x - 2


B) y = 3/6x + 5

    y = 1/2x + 20


C) y = -2x + 19

    y = 2x - 3

C) y = -2x + 19

    y = 2x - 3 

If two lines have different slopes, they will intersect at a single point. The point of intersection is the solution to the system of equations formed by the two lines.

Solve the system of equations:

**DAILY DOUBLE**

x = 3

5x + 4y = -9

-x + 4y - 2z = -25


A) y = -6, z = -1, x = 3

B) y = 5, z = 1, x = 3

C) y = 6, z = -1, x = 3

A) y = -6, z = -1, x = 3

Substituting the value of x from Equation 1 into Equations 2 and 3:

Equation 2: 

5(3) + 4y = -9 

15 + 4y = -9 4y = -9 - 15 

4y = -24 y = -6

Equation 3: 

-(3) + 4(-6) - 2z = -25 

-3 - 24 - 2z = -25 

-27 - 2z = -25 

-2z = -25 + 27 

-2z = 2 

z = -1

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3, y = -6, and z = -1. In the format (x, y, z), the solution is (3, -6, -1).

At an amusement park, the cost for an adult admission is a, and for a child the cost is c. For a group of six that included two children, the cost was $325.94. For a group of five that included three children, the cost was $256.95. All ticket prices include tax. 


Write a system of equations, in terms of a and c, that models this situation

equation 1: 4a+2c=325.94

equation 2: 2a+3c=256.95


Equation 1: 2a + 4c = 325.94

Explanation: In a group of six people, which includes two children, there are four adults. The total cost of their admissions is $325.94.

Equation 2: 3a + 2c = 256.95

Explanation: In a group of five people, which includes three children, there are two adults. The total cost of their admissions is $256.95.

The function f has a domain of {1,3,5,7} and a range of {2,4,6}. Could f be represented by {(1,2), (3,4), (5,6), (7,2)}? Justify your answer.

Yes, because every element of the domain is assigned one unique element in the range, or, there are no repeated values of x assigned to y.

A rocket is shot vertically into the air. Its height, h, at any time, t, in seconds, can be modeled by the equation h=-16t2+184t. Determine algebraically, the number of seconds it will take the rocket to reach a height of 529 feet.

hint: rearrange into the correct format of ax2+bx+c=0 then use quadratic formula 

5.75 seconds

Given that the height, h, is given by the equation h = -16t2 + 184t, we can substitute 529 for h and solve for t algebraically.

-16t2 + 184t = 529

Rearranging the equation:

-16t2 + 184t - 529 = 0

Now, we have a quadratic equation in the form of at2 + bt + c = 0, where: 

a=-16 b=184 c=-529

then

use the quadratic formula

Express in simplest form:

(3x2+4x-8) - (-2x2+4x+2)

5x2-10


To simplify the expression (3x2 + 4x - 8) - (-2x2 + 4x + 2), we can distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses and then combine like terms:

(3x2 + 4x - 8) - (-2x2 + 4x + 2) = 3x2 + 4x - 8 + 2x2 - 4x - 2

Now, let's combine the like terms:

(3x2 + 2x2) + (4x - 4x) + (-8 - 2) = 5x2 + 0 + (-10) = 5x2 - 10
