3.2
1. Write equations for this problem. The difference of two numbers is 7. If one number is added to  three times the  the other, the result is -1
a   

x - y = -1
3x - y = 7


x + y = 7
x - 3y = -1


x - y = 7
3x + y = -1

d  nota
2. In the previous problem, the solution for x is
a  1/2
b  1
c  3/2
d  nota
3. The cost and revenue functions for producing and selling x units of  a CD are given by 
C(x) = 15,000 + 12x and R(x) = 32x, respectively.   If the company breaks even, then what is
R(x)?  
a 750 
b 24,000
c 7,500
d nota 
3.3
4. 

Is ( 2,-1,3) a solution to this system?

x + y + z = 4
x - 2y - z = 1
2x - y - z = 1
a   yes 
b  no
c  nota
3.3
5. 

For the system:

x - y + z = 4    (A)
x + 2y - z = -1 (B)
x + y - 3z = -2 (C)

If you want to eliminate x, then you should 

a  Subtract (B) from (A) and subtract (C) from (A)
b  Add (B) and  (A) and subtract (C) from (A)
c  Subtract (B) from (A) and add  (C) and  (A)
d  nota
4.1
6. Solve:  10x + 6 > -14
a  x > -2
b  x < 2
c  x < -2
d nota
7. Solve:  -66(2 - b)  > 24(2b + 2)
a   b > 10
b   b < 10
c   b < -10
d   nota
4.2
8. Solve:   1 <  ½ x  - 4 <  7
a   5 < x < 11
b   no solution
c   10 < x < 22
d   nota
4.3
9.  Solve |x - 2| = 0
a    no solution
b   2
c  -2
d   nota
