Samantha is going on vacation for the summer and is trying to choose between two different plans. The first plan costs $450 for 3 days at a hotel and 2 days at an amusement park. The second plan offers 5 days at the same hotel and 3 days at the amusement park for $700. The cost of 1 day at the hotel and the amusement park is the same under both plans. How much does a 1-day trip to the amusement park cost?

What type of solutions do the methods for solving systems of equations find and how does this relate to setting the equations equal to each other?

A system of equations is a set of two or more equations that share two or more unknowns. The solutions to a system of equations are the total amounts that make all of the equations true, as well as the locations where the graphs of the equations intersect. You can determine a system of linear equations through graphing, linear combination and substitution. Systems of nonlinear functions, for example, quadratic or exponential equations, can be managed with the equivalent methods.

What is one of the solutions to the following system of equations? y2 + x2 = 53 y − x = 5

Answer: B. (−7, −2) SOLVINGS y^2 + x^2 = 53 ..... (Equation I) y − x = 5 ..... (Equation II) Make y the subject of equation II y = x + 5 ..... (Equation III) Substitute (x + 5) for the value of y in Equation I ∴ (x + 5)^2 + x^2 = 53 x^2 + 10x + 25 + x^2 = 53 2 x^2 + 10x + 25 = 53 2 x^2 + 10x + 25 - 53 = 0 2 x^2 + 10x - 28 = 0 ..... (Equation IV) Factor 2 out of equation IV; 2 (x^2 + 5x - 14) = 0 ..... (Equation V) Divide both sides of equation V by 0 ∴ x^2 + 5x - 14 = 0 x^2 + (7x - 2x) - 14 = 0 x^2 + 7x - 2x - 14 = 0 ..... (Equation VI) Divide Equation VI into two groups (x^2 + 7x and - 2x - 14) x + 7 is a common factor in both groups Factor out x + 7 in Equation VI ∴ x(x + 7) - 2(x +7) = 0 (x - 2) (x +7) = 0 ∴ x - 2 = 0 OR x + 7 = 0 x = 2 OR x = -7 x = 2, -7 If x = 2 Substitute 2 for the value of x in equation II y − x = 5 y - 2 = 5 y = 5 +2 y = 7(x =2, y =7) ...

The Mathalot Company makes and sells textbooks. They have one linear function that represents the cost of producing textbooks and another linear function that models how much income they get from those textbooks. Describe the key features that would determine if these linear functions ever intercepted.

If two lines have the same slope, they are parallel and will never intercept. If they don't have the same slope, they will intercept.

Choose the graph that matches the following system of equations: 8x + 5y = −5 7x − 3y = 3

In intercept form, the equations are .. x/(-5/8) +y/(-1) = 1 .. x/(3/7) +y/(-1) = 1 The first line has intercepts (-5/8, 0) and (0, -1). The second line has intercepts (3/7, 0) and (0, -1) In the second graph, the (blue) line with positive slope has an x-intercept greater than 1/2. Neither line matches that. The intercepts match those of the first graph.

Your boss hands you the monthly data that show the number of orders coming in to and out of the warehouse. The data are in the table below. Explain to your boss, in complete sentences, the solution to this system and what the solution represents.

Month No. of orders in No. of orders out January (1) 3 1 February (2) 4 3 March (3) 5 5 April (4) 6 7 Number of orders in a = number of month + 2 f(x) = x + 2. Number of orders out = 2 number of month + 1 g(x) = 2x - 1 So, in words, the numbers of orders is equal to the number of month plus 1. This represents a linear function, with slope 1 and y-intercept 2. And the numbers of orders out is also a linear function with slope 2 and y-intercept - 1.

Solve the following system of equations and show all work. y = 2x2 y = −3x −1

Since both right sides of each equation is equal to y, we can set them equal to each other. 2x² = -3x - 1 Let's get everything on the left side... 2x² + 3x + 1 = 0 Let's solve this quadratic by splitting the middle... We want two #'s that add up to 3 and multiply to 2. (2×1) These are 2 and 1. Let's split the middle into 2x and x. 2x² + 2x + x + 1 = 0 Factor the first and last two terms. 2x(x+1)+1(x+1) = 0 (2x+1)(x+1) = 0 If any value of x makes either factor evaluate to 0, it is a solution. 2x + 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = -1 ⇒ x = -1/2 ⇒ y = 2(-1/2)² = 2(1/4) = 1/2 x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = -1 ⇒ y = 2(-1)² = 2(1) = 2 Our solutions are (-1/2, 1/2) and (-1, 2).

How do you use properties of exponents and logarithms to rewrite functions in equivalent forms and solve equations?

The exponential function of the base a, so the generic form is f (x) = a ^ x, as a positive number beside one. Every exponential function of form f (x) = a^x, act with these Properties - 1. The function applied to the zero value is always equal to 1: f (0) = a ^ 0 = 1 2. The exponential function of 1 is always equal to the base: f (1) = a ^ 1 = a. 3. The exponential function of a total is equal to the product of the use of the function on each value separately. f (m + n) = a ^ (m + n) = a ^ m · a ^ n = f (m) · f (n). 4. The exponential function of subtraction is equal to the quotient use to a quantity or number which another is to be subtracted, then divided by the application to the quantity or number to be subtracted from another: f (p - q) = a ^ (p - q) = a ^ p / a ^ q Logarithm: In the log (b), a is called the base of the logarithm and b is called an argument, with a and b positive. Consequently, the definition of logarithm is: log b = n --> a ^ n = b (a > 0, b > 0)
