9. Eliza should use Order of Operations and multiply 3(9x) to get 27x. She can then combine like terms using the Distributive Property to get 2x + 27x = 29x.

2x + 3(5x + 7x 3x)

= 2x +15x + 21x 9x

= 38x 9x

= 29x

6. D: {0, 50, 125, 250, 350} R: {2, 6, 11, 14, 16} The domain represents the

number of miles traveled. The range represents the number of gallons of gas remaining in her tank. The tank holds 16 gallons and all of the values in the range are 16 or less.

At 350 miles traveled, she has 2 gallons remaining in her tank. This means she used 16 – 2 = 14 gallons to travel 350 miles. Since 350 14 25 , she averaged 25 miles per gallon. This confirms her belief.

6. You can use an equation of a function to make a table of values by substituting different values for x and determine the corresponding values of y. Then you can plot the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. To create a table of values from an equation, you can substitute different values for x into the equation to calculate the values of y. To create a table of values from a graph, you can read the graph at different points and record the values of x and y.

11. For example, 20 less than 5 times a number; the product of 5 and a number, decreased by 20. For example, the amount of money Garret will earn mowing lawns if he charges $5 per lawn and has expenses of $20; the number of people at a recital this year was 20 fewer than 5 times the number at the recital last year

The first sentence states that Tanya is “no more than” 65 inches tall. No more than is the same as less than or equal to, so I used the “less than or equal to” symbol .

The second sentence states that Mila is taller than Tanya. That means Mila’s height is greater than Tanya’s height, so I used the greater than symbol > The third sentence states that Jamal is 5 inches taller than Mila. Is means equals, so I used the “equals” symbol =.

Answers may vary. Possible answer: If Lara earned $600, how many hours did she work?

5.25l = 600 The number in the

sentence is an exact amount, so I used an equal sign. Her wages are $5.25 per hour, so I multiplied the number of hours, l, by her hourly wage.

It is necessary to rewrite the polynomial because the divisor has an x term while the dividend does not. The 0x is a placeholder for the middle term.

Polynomial division and arithmetic division both use the same steps of divide, multiply, subtract, and bring down. Polynomial division uses variables and constants, while arithmetic division uses only numbers. Polynomial division needs placeholders if any of the terms are missing in the dividend.

null set is the universe. The null set is empty and contains no elements. That means that the complement of the null set contains every element in the universe, so the complement of the null set is the universe itself.

12. Ac = . If A contains all of the elements in the universe, then there are no elements in the complement of A, and Ac is the null set.

13. The Venn diagram shows the universe within the rectangle and a set within the circle. The area outside the circle and inside the rectangle represents the complement of the set within the circle. Together, the set and its complement make up the universe.

The circle represents set A.

The area outside of the circle represents the elements that are not within set A, or the complement of A.

9. A B C = { 48, 36, 24, 12}

10. You can use a Venn diagram by drawing overlapping circles. The individual circles represent each set and then writing the elements of each set within the appropriate circle. If there are elements in more than one set, they are written within the overlap of the circles. To find the elements in a union set, write all of the elements that are within any of the circles. To find elements in an intersection set, write all of the elements that are within the overlapping sections.

11. Yes, (A B) C is the same as A (B C) . If you are finding all of the elements that are in at least one of the sets, then the order in which you examine the sets does not matter. Yes, (A B) C is the same as A (B C) . If you are finding the elements that are in each of three different sets, then the order in which you examine the sets does not matter.

12. A (B C) = {2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10}

A (B C) = {2, 4, 6} The sets are not the same. The first set is the union of A with the intersection of B and C, that are in both B and C combined with all the elements of A. The second set is the intersection of A with the union of B and C, so it is all of the elements that are in both B and C, then the intersection of these elements with those in A.

Rates of Change pp. 87–88 1. 3 2. 2 3. Slope is the rate of change

of the dependent variable relative to the x value. A horizontal line has the same y value for every different x value, so the rate of change is 0 and the slope is 0.

4. y = 0.15x+ 75 Slope = 0.15 The slope represents the charge per mile, or the rate of change of the cost relative to the number of miles.

5. The slope of the line represents the change in distance over time.

The slope of the line would be steeper if the number of miles traveled over the same time period doubled. This is because the y value would change twice as much for each change in the x value.

6. Cellular phone plan 1 has a slope that increases as the amount of minutes increase. The rate of change of the charge is relative to the minutes used. Cellular phone plan 2 has a slope of 0 since charges remain unchanged as the minutes increase.

Geometric Constructions pp. 113–114 1. 2 2. 2 3. 3 4. I can place the point of my

compass on X and use my compass to measure the distance from X to Y. I used my straight edge to draw a line segment and I drew a point on it. Then I used the preserved compass span to measure the same distance as segment XY. I made a mark on the line. I can label my new endpoints A and B. AB XY

5. I can place the point of my compass on point C and spread the compass more than halfway across the line segment. I can draw an arc that goes above and below the line. Then I can my compass with the same distance on point D and draw an arc that goes above and below the line. I can then use my straight edge to join the two points of intersection.

6. I can place the point of my compass on vertex S and draw an arc that passes through segments RS and ST. Then I can place the point of my compass at the intersection of the arc and segment RS and draw an arc. I can repeat this with segment ST. I can use my straight edge to join the intersection of the arcs to vertex S.

7. I can use my compass and straight edge to construct a perpendicular bisector of segment AB that is halfway between A and B. I label the intersection C. This will divide AB into two equal segments, AC and BC . Then I use my compass and straight edge to construct a perpendicular bisector of AC . This divides AC into two congruent segments. Finally, I can construct a perpendicular bisector of BC . This will divide BC into two congruent segments. Since each new segment is equal to one-half of one-half of the original segment, the original segment was divided into four equal sections.

or 0.5 5. The slope of a horizontal

line is 0 because the y value does not change, so the numerator of the slope is 0.

6. The slope of the line represents the change in distance traveled over time, or the speed.

The slope would double because the change in distance would double while the change in time would remain the same.

the original value of the copier at t = 0, or when it was first purchased. I know because the y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which occurs when x = 0.

Between 6 and 7 years; I know this because when the value of x is between 6 and 7 years on the graph, the value of y is 0.

5. The y-intercept of a line tells you the y value of the point where the line crosses the y axis. To graph the line, I can draw a point at the y-intercept. The slope of the line tells you how much the y value changes for each change in the x value. From the y-intercept, I can count the rise, up for a positive slope or down for a negative slope, and then the run, to the right, and make another point. Then I can join the two points to draw the line.

6. The variable x represents the number of school lunches Danielle can purchase. The variable y represents the amount of money that remains in Danielle’s account. The slope is –5 and it represents the cost of a school lunch that is deducted from her account. 60 is the y-intercept and it represents the initial amount of money in Danielle’s account.

3. Yes, because the graph is a straight line and each x value is paired with only one y value.

4. No, because the graph is not a straight line.

5. No, because the equation is for a linear function, and the function in the graph is non linear and curved.

6. The graph of a quadratic function is curved because the rate at which the y-value increases is not constant. For example, when the x value increases by 1 from 4 to 5 to 6, the y-value increases by 9, from 17 to 26, then increases by 11 from 26 to 37.

The boundary lines are

parallel. A system of equations whose lines are parallel has no solution. A system of inequalities whose lines are parallel may have solutions.

A system of inequalities may also have no solution. For example, the system

y x 3y x 3

has no solution.

4. population: all residents of the city; sample: those who fill out cards; voluntary response sample

5. Population: all people at the shopping center Sample: people who leave from one door at the shopping center, The sample is a convenience sample because the people leaving through the chosen door are easily accessed. The sample is biased because people leaving through another door do not have an opportunity to be chosen.

6. Yes; the graph is biased because the scale used on the y-axis is very large. A scale this large will make points appear to be closer together. This gives the impression that the expenses have remained fairly constant during the time period. A better graph would be to use a y-axis scale from 0 to 1700. This would present the expenses in an unbiased way.

Evaluating Published Reports pp. 175–176 1. 4 2. Ms. Wiggins gave no

information regarding how many students were polled. Ms. Wiggins’ sample size may have been too small to accurately reflect the student population. Therefore, it may be unreasonable to assume 35% of the high school’s enrollment drives their own cars to school.

3.The report gives no information on the number of people who were surveyed. The sample size many be too small for the study.

4.The graph appears to substantiate the conclusions in the report. The graph is misleading because the percents do not total to 100%. The percentages do not match the areas of each cereal category. The graph should include additional cereal brands and an “other” category to accurately reflect 100% of the people surveyed.

because the data shows that the number of mishandled baggage increases and the percent of on-time arrivals decrease.

5. The correlation is positive because the data shows that the length of a person’s femur increases as their height increases.

6. The greater the number of pages the greater the cost of the novel. The correlation is positive.

3. There is a moderate causation and strong correlation between April showers and May flowers because the water is necessary for the flowers to grow and bloom. However there are other factors such as temperature which affect the growth of May flowers. Both students are correct.

4. The correlation is negative. As the temperature

decreases, the number of cups of coffee sold increases. The increase in sales is caused by colder temperatures. This is a causal relationship.

7. FALSE; RP cannot be

perpendicular to plane

W, because plane W

contains RP.

8. Plane R is perpendicular

to line n. If a line (n) is

perpendicular to each of

two intersecting lines

(l and m) at their point of

intersection (A), then the

line is perpendicular to

plane R.

9. Sample answer: Abby

can create 2 lines with

string leading away from

the birdbath that intersect

at the birdbath. Using the

level, she must determine

that the birdbath is

plumb, or perpendicular,

with each of the lines

where the line meets the

birdbath. If the birdbath is

plumb, or perpendicular,

with each of the lines,

then it is perpendicular

with the plane that

contains the two lines. If it

is perpendicular with the

plane, it is perpendicular

with every line in the

plane and would,

therefore, appear plumb

from any direction.

8. a. Two lines in the same

plane are either

parallel or intersect in

a point. Since AM and

BO do not intersect,

they must be parallel.

b. If lines AM and BO

are parallel, they

have the same slope.

Therefore, if AM is

9. Joshua must make sure

that a vertical edge of

the wall is perpendicular

to the fl oor. If we think

of a wall and the fl oor

as planes and the edge

of the wall as a line

within the wall plane,

and Joshua follows this

procedure with each

wall, the walls will be

perpendicular to the

fl oor since two planes

are perpendicular to

each other if and only

if one plane contains a

line perpendicular to the

second plane.

7. By defi nition, a prism is

a polyhedron with two

congruent faces, called

bases, that lie in parallel

planes. The other faces,

called lateral faces,

are parallelograms

formed by connecting

the corresponding

vertices of the bases. If

one edge of the prism

is perpendicular to its

base, then that edge

must be perpendicular

to the other base, since

the bases are parallel.

Since the lateral faces

are parallelograms, each

angle of intersection

between an edge and a

base must therefore be

a right angle. In a right

prism, each lateral edge

is perpendicular to both

bases, therefore, this

pentagonal prism is a

right pentagonal prism.

midpoint of FG is L(3, 7),

so the equation of the

median from H(6, 1) to

L(3, 7) is y = -2x + 13.

P(4, 5) lies on this

median. The midpoint

of GH is J(5, 5), so the

equation of the median

from F(2, 5) to J(5, 5)

is y = 5. P(4, 5) lies on

this median, so all three

b. If two angles are

supplementary, then

they form a linear pair.

This is true because

the defi nition of

supplementary angles

is that they form a linear

pair. If two angles are

congruent, then they

are vertical angles. This

is false because there

can be angles that are

congruent without being

vertical angles. If two

of the measures of

the interior angles

always is 360°. As the

measure of angle Q

increases, so does

the measure of angle

S. Therefore, the

measure of angle

P must decrease to

maintain the sum of

360°. As the measure

of angle Q increases,

the measure of angle

P decreases, moving

Q closer to S.

9. Sample answer: Given

that PQRS is a parallelo-

gram, you know that QR

is parallel to PS with

QP being a transversal.

By defi nition and the

fact that they are

consecutive interior

angles, angle Q and

angle P are supplemen-

tary by the Consecutive

Interior Angles Theorem.

So x° + y° = 180° by

measure of angle

EFC + the measure

of angle EFG = 180°

and the measure of

angle DGA + the

measure of angle

DGF = 180° because

linear angles are

supplementary. The

measure of angle

DGA + 90° = 180°

and the measure of

angle EFC + 90°

side of the exterior

triangle is twice the

8. If a dilation was

performed, the new

image would be similar

to the original. To

determine similarity,

I would calculate the

ratio of the shortest

side of one triangle to

the shortest side of the

other. Similarly, I would

calculate the ratio of the

largest sides and fi nally

of the third sides. If these

ratios are equal, then a

dilation was performed.

Perspective drawings

use converging lines

to give the illusion that

an object is three-

dimensional. Since the

back of the drawing is

similar to the front, a

dilation can be used to

create this illusion with

the vanishing point as

the center of dilation.

6. f –1(–2) = 3 means that

the point (–2, 3) is on

the graph of f –1. So, the

point (3, –2) is on the

graph of f. Therefore,

f(3) = –2.

7. The inverse is {(1.2, –2),

(–1.8, –1), (–2.8, 0),

(–1.8, 1), (1.2, 2)}. Since

the x-values 1.2 and –1.8

are paired with more

than one y-value, the

inverse is not a function.

8. The range of the inverse

is the domain of f. To

fi nd the range of f –1, fi nd

the domain of f, which is

x ≥ 1.

5. The x-intercepts are the

zeros of the function,

such that if b is an

x-intercept,

(x - b) is a factor.

f(x) = (x + 6)(x + 3)(x - 0)

(x - 2)(x - 3) = x(x + 6)

7. a. The x-intercepts, or

roots, are −2, −1, and 1.

b. Since the polynomial

is 4th degree, it must

have four factors.

The point where the

graph touches the

x-axis but does not

cross it represents a

repeated factor. The

factorization is

f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 1)

(x - 1)(x - 1)

c. A new 4th-degree

function with the same

x-intercepts must also

have a repeated factor.

Possible functions:

8. Graph the equations y

= 2 x and y = 4 x on the

same coordinate plane

and compare the graphs.

The solutions to the

inequality correspond

to the x-values in the

domain where the graph

of 4x is above the graph

of 2x.

The solutions to the

inequality are all x such

that x > 0.

9. a. The graph is

translated to the left 3

units and up 1 unit.

b. The domain is

(-∞, ∞) and the

range is (1, ∞).

Since g(0) = 9 0+3 +

1 = 729 + 1 = 730,

the y-intercept of the

graph is (0, 730).

The horizontal

asymptote is translated

up 1 unit. So the line

y = 1 is a horizontal

asymptote of the graph.

The graph increases

over the domain.

that y must be negative

is the same as the

domain of y = cos-1 x

with x and y

interchanged. Thus, the

range is -1 ≤ y ≤ 1.

7. Yes; x = - π __ 2 in the

domain. The domain

for y = tan-1x is all real

numbers.

8. Over the interval - π __ 2

< x < π __ 2 , the range for

y = tan x is -∞ < y < ∞.

The domain for

y = tan-1x is the same

as the range for

y = tan x. Thus, the

domain for y = tan-1x

is -∞ < x < ∞.

9. Only one-to-one

functions have inverses.

If a function has the

same output for more

than one input, then it

is not one-to-one and,

therefore, cannot have

an inverse. For example,

sin π __ 4 = �

sin 3π ___

median is 18.5.

7. The missing data

element must be 18. If

it were 15, the mode

would be 15. If it were

any number other than

15 or 18, the data would

6. Quartile 1 is 20.5 and

Quartile 3 is 32.5, so the

interquartile range is 12.

7. The interquartile range

shows the range of the

middle half of the data.

8. If all of the data

values are doubled,

the standard deviation

is also doubled. This

happens because

doubling the numbers

causes the mean to

double, which causes

the difference between

the data values and

the mean to double.

Because this number is

squared, the variance

increases by a factor

of 4. Since the square

root of the variance is

taken to get the standard

deviation, the factor of

change for the standard

deviation is 2.

9. a. Quartile 1 = 9,

6. The middle 86.6%

covers from 1.5 standard

deviations below the

mean to 1.5 standard

deviations above the

mean. So, 5.0 - 1.4

= 3.6 is 3 standard

deviations, and

1 standard deviation is

3.6 ÷ 3 = 1.2.

7. The mean is the center

of the curve, so mean

= 45. Since about 34%

of the data is 1 standard

deviation above or below

the mean, the standard

deviation is 9.

8. In a normal distribution,

about 2.3% of the data

is above 2 standard

so there are 90 · 358,800 = 32,292,000

possible passwords.

If the password contains

a “5”, it could be the

fi rst or second digit.

In either case, there

are 9 possible choices

for the other digit, so

there are 9 + 9 = 18

possible permutations of

digits that contain a “5”.

Likewise, if the password

contains an “e”, there

are 25

P3 = 13,800 ways

to select the other three

letters. Since the “e”

could be in any of the

four-letter positions, there

are 4 · 13,800 = 55,

200 letter permutations

that contain the letter

“e”. Therefore, there

are 18 · 55,200 = 993,

600 passwords that

c. Out of the 1001 ways

to select students

with no restrictions

calculated in part a.,

determine how many

of these combinations

refl ect only one

language. There are

not enough Chinese

or Italian speakers to

make a group of four

students from only one

of those languages.

Since there are four

French speakers, it

is possible to make

one group of only the

four French speakers.

There are fi ve Spanish

speakers, and there

are 5C

4 = 5 ways to

select a group of four

students from them.

Therefore, there are

5 + 1 = 6 possible

37. The radius of the circle

is the distance between

(–1, 4) and (2, –1).

r = ��

(x - h)2 + (y - k)2

= ��

(-1 - 2)2 + [4 - (-1)]2

= ��

(-3)2 + 52 = ��

34

An equation of the circle

with center

(2, –1) and radius ��

34 is

(x – h) 2 + (y – k) 2 = r 2

(x – 2) 2 + [y – (–1)] 2

= � �� 34 � 2

(x – 2) 2 + (y + 1) 2 = 34.

38. Since sec x = 1 _____

cos x ,

fi rst graph y = cos x.

Then use the y-values

to graph y = sec x. The

asymptotes are at the

values where y = sec x

is not defi ned.

y = cos x

39. a. In a normal

distribution, 86.6% of

the values are from 1.5

standard deviations

below the mean to 1.5

standard deviations

above the mean. So,

90 - 54 = 36 is 3

standard deviations,

and 1 standard

deviation is 12.

b. 6.7% of the values

are more than 1.5

standard deviations

above the mean.

c. The high score cannot

be determined. The

normal distribution

only shows the

distribution of values,

not specifi c values.
