2.) If the speed of a car on the highway detected by a radar gun is within 7mph of the speed limit, a police
officer will not issue a ticket to a car for driving too fast or two slow. Write an absolute value equation to find
the extreme speeds a car can be going in a 55mph speed zone and not get a ticket. Then find the extreme speeds.
Kristen plans to rent a bike in New Orleans to tour the city. The cost of the rental is $20 per day. The cost of a
helmet is $5 for as long as Kristen needs the bike.
3.) Write a linear equation in two variables that models the situation. Tell what each variable in the equation
represents. Then graph the equation.
4.) Which of the following statements describes what the graph in the situation?
A. The slope represents the cost of the rental. The y-intercept represents the cost of the helmet.
B. The slope represents the cost of the helmet per day. The y-intercept represents the cost of the helmet at day
0.
C. The slope represents the cost of the bike per day. The y-intercept represents the cost of the helmet for the
entire time of the rental.
D. The slope represents the rise of a hill in New Orleans. The y-intercept represents rise of the slope.
E. The y-axis could be labeled from 0 to 15 to represent the hills. The x-axis could be labeled from 0 to 60 to
represent cost in dollars.
F. The y-axis could be labeled from 0 to 125 to represent cost in dollars. The x-axis could be labeled from 0 to
25 to represent days.
5.) Graph the following inequalities on the same grid and shade the solution region that is common to all of the
inequalities.
𝑥<2
{ 𝑦 ≤ 2𝑥
𝑦 ≥ −3𝑥 + 2
6.) In problem 5, which of the following points would be solutions to the system of inequalities?
A.) (2,0) B.) (1,1) C.) (1,2) D.) (2,1) E.) (3,0) F.) (2,4)
Solve each of the following systems of equations algebraically (substitution or elimination). Also, check your
answer to number 7 or 8 by graphing.
3𝑥 − 5𝑦 = 11 −10𝑥 + 4𝑦 = 30
7.) { 8.) {
𝑥 − 3𝑦 = 1 3𝑥 + 10𝑦 = −9
𝑥 − 2𝑦 + 2𝑧 = −3
9.) {𝑥 − 3𝑦 − 6𝑧 = −15
𝑥 − 4𝑦 − 5𝑧 = −18
10.) A pizza shop makes $1.50 on each small pizza and $2.15 on each large pizza. On a typical Friday, it sells
178 pizzas. If the store made $332 in one Friday night, how many of each pizza was sold? Solve by using a
Matrix Equation.
12.) Solve each of the following absolute value inequalities. Then graph your solution and write your answer in
interval notation.
Find the inverse function for each of the following functions. Then prove they are inverse functions using a
composition of functions.
3x − 2
25.) f ( x) = 26.) g ( x) = 4 x + 8

27.) Mr. Kledzik made a purchase at a local hardware store, but what he bought is too big to take home in his
car. For a small fee, he can arrange to have the hardware store deliver his purchase to his home. He pays for the
purchase, plus the sales taxes, plus the fee. The taxes are 7.5% and the fee is $20.
a.) Write a function t(x) for the total, after taxes, on the purchase amount x. Write another function f(x) for the
total, including the delivery fee, on the purchase amount x.
b.) Calculate and interpret (t f )(x) and ( f t )(x) . Which results in a lower cost to Mr. Kledzik?
c.) Suppose taxes, by law, are not to be charged on delivery fees. Which composite function must then be used?
28.)
a. b.
32.) List the transformations from the parent function, then graph. State the domain and range.
a. 𝑓(𝑥) = 2|𝑥 − 3| − 2 b. 𝑔(𝑥) = −|𝑥 + 3| + 1
33.) Jon has two summer jobs. Each week he works at least 6 hours at Best Buy and at least 10 hours at
Chipotle. He earns $12 per hour at Best Buy and $10 per hour at Chipotle. Jon wants to work no more than 28
hours and earn at least $200 per week.
a. Let x represent the number of hours Jon works at Bet Buy and let y represent the number of hours he works at
Chipotle. Write inequalities that model the four constraints in this situation.
b. Graph the constraints. Shade the solution region that is common to all the inequalities.
d. Identify two ordered pairs that do not satisfy the constraints. Why
do these solutions not work for Jon’s situation?
