Do you know HOW?

Without graphing, classify each system. Then find the solution to each system using a graph.

  1. left brace . table with 2 rows and 2 columns , row1 column 1 , y equals , column 2 5 x minus 2 , row2 column 1 , y equals , column 2 x plus 4 , end table
  2. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 3 x plus 2 y equals 9 , row2 column 1 , 3 x plus 2 y equals 4 , end table

Solve the system by substitution.

  1. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 0.3 x minus y equals 0 , row2 column 1 , y equals 2 plus , 0.25 , x , end table

Solve the system by elimination.

  1. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 4 x minus 2 y equals 3 , row2 column 1 , y minus 2 x equals negative , 3 halves , end table
  2. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 3 x plus 4 y equals 9 , row2 column 1 , 2 x plus y equals 6 , end table

Graph the solution of each system.

  1. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 2 x plus y less than 3 , row2 column 1 , x less than y plus 3 , end table
  2. left brace . table with 2 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , vertical line x plus 3 vertical line greater than y , row2 column 1 , y greater than 2 x minus 1 , end table

Graph the system of constraints. Identify all vertices. Then find the values of x and y that maximize or minimize the objective function.

  1. left brace . table with 4 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , x less than or equal to 5 , row2 column 1 , y less than or equal to 4 , row3 column 1 , x greater than or equal to 0 , row4 column 1 , y greater than or equal to 0 , end table

    Maximum for P = 2x + y

Solve each system.

  1. left brace . table with 3 rows and 4 columns , row1 column 1 , x minus , column 2 y plus , column 3 z equals , column 4 0 , row2 column 1 , 3 x minus , column 2 2 y plus , column 3 6 z equals , column 4 9 , row3 column 1 , negative x plus , column 2 y minus , column 3 2 z equals , column 4 negative 2 , end table
  2. left brace . table with 3 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , 2 x plus y plus z equals 8 , row2 column 1 , x plus 2 y minus z equals negative 5 , row3 column 1 , z equals 2 x minus y , end table

Do you UNDERSTAND?

Write a matrix that represents the system. Then solve the system. Tell what method you used and why.

  1. left brace . table with 3 rows and 1 column , row1 column 1 , negative eh plus 4 b plus 2 c equals negative 8 , row2 column 1 , 3 eh plus b minus 4 c equals 9 , row3 column 1 , b equals negative 1 , end table
  2. Sales A pizza shop makes $1.50 on each small pizza and $2.15 on each large pizza. On a typical Friday, it sells between 70 and 90 small pizzas and between 100 and 140 large pizzas. The shop can make no more than 210 pizzas in a day. How many of each size pizza must be sold in order to maximize profit?
  3. Investing Your teacher invested $5000 in three funds. After a year they had $5450. The growth fund had a return rate of 12%, the income fund had a return rate of 8%, and the money market fund had a return rate of 5%. Your teacher invested twice as much in the income fund as in the money market fund. How much money was invested in each fund?
  4. Writing Describe how to identify situations in which substitution may be the best method for solving a system of equations.
  5. Open-Ended Write a system of constraints whose graph is a parallelogram.
