    7 Algebra: Graphs, Functions and Linear Systems > Chapter Summary, Review, and Test

    7.3 Systems of Linear Equations in Two Variablesa. Two equations in the form are called a system of linear equations. A solution of the system is an ordered pair that satisfies both equationsin the system.

    Ex. 1,p. 433

    b. Linear systems with one solution can be solved by graphing. The coordinates of the point of intersection of the lines are the system's solution. Ex. 2,p. 434

    c. Systems of linear equations in two variables can be solved by eliminating a variable, using the substitution method (see the box on page 435) or the additionmethod (see the box on page 438).

    Ex. 3,p.435; Ex. 4,p.436; Ex. 5,p.438; Ex. 6,p. 439

    d. When solving by substitution or addition, if the variable is eliminated and a false statement results, the linear system has no solution. If the variable iseliminated and a true statement results, the system has infinitely many solutions.

    Ex. 7,p.440; Ex. 8,p. 441

    e. Functions of Business. A company produces and sells x units of a product.

    The point of intersection of the graphs of R and C is the break-even point. The x-coordinate of the point reveals the number of units that a company mustproduce and sell so that the money coming in, the revenue, is equal to the money going out, the cost. The y-coordinate gives the amount of money coming inand going out.

    Ex. 9,p. 442

    7.4 Linear Inequalities in Two Variablesa. A linear inequality in two variables can be written in the form or

    b. The procedure for graphing a linear inequality in two variables is given in the box on page 448.

    Ex. 1,p.448; Ex. 2,p. 449

    c. Some inequalities can be graphed without using test points, including (the half-plane above ), (the half-plane to the right of ), (the half-plane above ), and

    Ex. 3,p. 450

    d. Graphing Systems of Linear Inequalities

    1. Graph each inequality in the system in the same rectangular coordinate system.

    2. Find the intersection of the individual graphs.

    Ex. 5,p.452; Ex. 6,p. 453

    7.5 Linear Programming

    a. An objective function is an algebraic expression in three variables describing a quantity that must be maximized or minimized. Ex. 1,p. 456

    b. Constraints are restrictions, expressed as linear inequalities.

    Ex. 2,p.457; Ex. 3,p. 458

    c. Steps for solving a linear programming problem are given in the box on page 458. Ex. 4,p. 4597.6 Modeling Data: Exponential, Logarithmic, and Quadratic Functions

    a. The exponential function with base b is defined by or and Ex. 1,p. 463b. All exponential functions of the form where have the shape of the graph in Figure 7.43 on page 463, making this function a good model fordata points in a scatter plot that are increasing more and more rapidly.

    Ex. 2,p. 465

    c. The irrational number appears in many applied exponential functions. The function is called the natural exponential function. Ex. 3,p. 466d. The logarithmic function with base b is defined by or and means so a logarithm isan exponent.

    Ex. 4,p. 468

    e. means the common logarithmic function. means the natural logarithmic function. Calculators contain and keys for evaluating these functions.

    22. A manufacturer makes two types of jet skis, regular and deluxe. The profit on a regular jet ski is $200 and the profit on the deluxe model is $250. To meetcustomer demand, the company must manufacture at least 50 regular jet skis per week and at least 75 deluxe models. To maintain high quality, the total number ofboth models of jet skis manufactured by the company should not exceed 150 per week. How many jet skis of each type should be manufactured per week to obtainmaximum profit? What is the maximum weekly profit?

    23. Graph Use 0, 1, and 2 for x and find the corresponding values for y.

    24. Graph by rewriting the equation in exponential form. Use a table of coordinates and select 0, 1, and 2 for y.

    25. Use the vertex and intercepts to graph the quadratic function

    In Exercises 26–29, determine whether the values in each table belong to an exponential function, a logarithmic function, a linear function, or a quadratic function.

    a. What is the slope of the linear model? What does this mean in terms of the change in the cost of making a penny?

    b. Based on the shape of the scatter plot, which function, the linear or the exponential, is a better model for the data? Explain your answer.

    c. Use each function to find the cost of making a penny in 2012. Where necessary, round to two decimal places. Is either function a particularly good model for the2012 data? Which function serves as a better model? Is this consistent with your answer in part (b)?
