Dear Stuyvesant students,
This booklet was prepared by the Stuyvesant High School Mathematics
Department and contains prerequisite material for your math class. The materials
must be completed and brought to your math class on Wednesday, September 9
(the first day of school).
Directions:
Print and staple the pages.
Use the space provided to carry out your work.
Show all work.
Be neat. You may use pen or pencil.
A test based on the material will be given in your math class on Thursday,
September 17. No calculator will be permitted. It will be the first math test of the
term, and the test grade will be determined as follows:
Completion of the packet on time will account for 25% of the test grade.
Performance on the test will account for 75% of the test grade.
Don’t procrastinate. Solve a few problems each day. If you need extra help, please

1. Solving Literal Equations
Model Problems
1. Solve for x: y = 17 - 2
x3
a) Multiply both sides by 3. 3y = 51 – 2x
b) Isolate 2x. 2x = 51 – 3y
c) Divide both sides by 2. x = 51 3y

or
x = 51 3
y2 2
2. Solve for c: b = a(c2 + d)
a) Expand the right side. b = ac2 + ad
b) Isolate ac2. ac2 = b – ad
c) Divide both sides by a. c2 = b ad

9. Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring, or, if b = 0, by Taking Square Roots
Find the solution set.
1) x2 – x – 6 = 0
Factor the left-hand side: (x – 3)(x + 2) = 0
If AB = 0, then A = 0 or B = 0: x – 3 = 0 or x +
2 = 0
x = 3 or x = -
2
The solution set is {-2, 3}. Answer
2) 2x 2 = 6 – x
Write in ax2 + bx + c = 0 form: 2x2 + x – 6= 0
Factor the left-hand side: (2x – 3)(x + 2) =
0
2x – 3 = 0 or x +
2 = 0
x = 3/2 or x = -2
The solution set is {-2, 3/2}. Answer
3) 4x2 = 75 + x2
Since there is no x term (that is, if written in
standard ax2 + bx + c = 0 form, b = 0), we can
solve by taking square roots. First solve for x2
and then take square roots.
3x2 = 75
x2 = 25
x = ±5
The solution set is {-5, 5}. Answer.
Alternately, we may solve by factoring.
3x2 – 75 = 0
3 ( x2 – 25 ) = 0
3(x + 5)(x – 5) = 0
x + 5 = 0 or x – 5 = 0
x = -5 or x = 5
Find the solution set (continued on next page).
1) x2 – 9x + 25 = 5
2) x2 – 8x – 40 = 4 – x
3) 3x2 + 6x – 72 = 0
4) 3x2 = 2 - x
5) 4x2 = 3x + 1
6) 2x2 – 128 = 0
7) 6x2 = 2x [Hint: Do not divide both sides by x.]
8) 4x (x + 3) = -9
10. Solving a System of Linear Equations by Addition or Subtraction (Elimination Method)
Model Problems
Solve:
1. 3x – 5y = -9
4x + 5y = 23
We may eliminate y by adding the equations to
get
7x = 14
x = 2
Now, substitute 2 for x in one of the given
equations:
4(2) + 5y = 23
8 + 5y = 23
5y = 15
y = 3
The solution of this linear system is the ordered
pair (2, 3). Answer
2. 2x + 3y = 8
-5x + 4y = 6
Adding or subtracting will not eliminate a
variable.
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second
by 3:
8x + 12y = 32
-15x + 12y = 18
Subtract the resulting equations to get rid of y:
23x = 14
x = 14/23
Now, we may substitute 14/23 for x in the first
or second given equation to solve for y, or
instead solve for y by eliminating x. We may do
this by multiplying the first equation by 5 and
the second by 2 and then adding. We get y =
52/23.
The solution of this system is (14/23, 52/23).
Answer
Solve by the elimination method (continued on next page).
1) 8x – 3y = 38 4x – 5y = 26

11. Solving a System of Linear Equations by Substitution
Model Problem
Solve:
2x – y = 13
4x + 3y = 1
In the first equation, solve for y in terms of x:
y = 2x – 13
Substitute this expression for y in the second given equation and solve for x:
4x + 3 (2x – 13) = 1
4x + 6x – 39 = 1
10x – 39 = 1
10x = 40
x = 4
Substitute this value of x in the equation y = 2x – 13 to find y:
y = 2 (4) – 13
y = 8 -13
y = -5
The solution of the system is (4, -5). Answer
Solve by the substitution method (continued on next page).
1) x + 5y = -11 4x – 3y = 25
2) 3x – 4y = -15 5x + y = -2
3) 4x – 3y = 9 2x – y = 5

12. The Slope-Intercept Form of an Equation of a Line
Model Problems
1) Determine whether the graphs of the equations are parallel, perpendicular or neither.
a) y = 2x + 3
2y – 4x = 7
If y = mx + b, then the slope of the graph is m. In the second equation, solve for y in terms of x, and get
y = 2x + 7/2. Therefore, the graph of each equation has slope 2. If two lines have equal slopes, then they
are parallel.
Therefore the graphs of the equations are parallel lines. Answer
b) 3x – 5y = 10
5x + 3y + 8 = 0
Rewrite each equation in y = mx + b form.
y = (3/5) x – 2
y = (- 5/3) x – 8/3
Since the slopes of the lines are negative reciprocals (3/5 and -5/3), the lines are perpendicular. Answer
2) Write an equation of the line that contains the point (3, 4) and has x-intercept -3.
We need to find m and b so that we can write an equation of the form y = mx + b. (If you know the point-
slope form of a line, then you may use that instead.)Since the x-intercept is -3, the point (-3, 0) is a point on
the line.
m =
2 1
2 1
y y
x x=
0 4
3 3=
2
3
y = mx + b
y = 2
3x + b
Since (3, 4) is a point on the line, x = 3, y = 4 satisfies the equation of the line. (Or you may use the other
point,(-3, 0) instead).
4 = 2
3(3) + b
b = 2
So, an equation of the line is y 2
3x + 2.
Problems are on the next page.
1) State the slope and y-intercept of the graph of x + 2y – 5 = 0.
2) State the slope and y-intercept of the graph of 4x – 7y + 15 = 0.
3) Write an equation of a line that is parallel to the graph of 2x – 3y = 8 and has the same y-intercept as the graph of x + 6y – 9 =12.
4) Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to the graph of 7x + 10y = 1 and passes through the origin.
5) Write an equation of the line that passes through the points (-1, 5) and (2, -1).
Extra Credit: The equations of the lines containing three sides of
a square are y = 1
x 82
, y = 1
x 22
, and
y = 2x 12 . Write an equation of the line
containing the fourth side. Use the back of the page if there is not enough room here for your solution.
