Problem 43
\(y\) varies directly with \(x\). If \(y=30\) when \(x=-3,\) find \(y\) when \(x=-9\)
Problem 43
Writing When you graph an inequality, you can often use the point \((0,0)\) to test which side of the boundary line to shade. Describe a situation in which you could not use \((0,0)\) as a test point.
Problem 44
Find the range of each function when the domain is \(\\{-3,-1,0,1.5,4\\}\). $$ y=9-2 x $$
Problem 45
Graph each absolute value equation. $$ y=-|-2 x-1|+1 $$
Problem 46
Graph each inequality on a graphing calculator. Then sketch the graph. $$ y<|x-3|-|x+3| $$
Problem 50
Graph each absolute value equation. $$ -3 y=|3 x-6| $$
Problem 52
Suppose you drive a car 392 mi on one tank of gas. The tank holds 14 gallons. The number of miles traveled varies directly with the number of gallons of gas you use. a. Write an equation that relates miles traveled to gallons of gas used. b. You only have enough money to buy 3.7 gallons of gas. How far can you drive before refueling? c. Last year you drove \(11,700\) mi. About how many gallons of gas did you use? d. Suppose the price of gas averaged \(\$ 1.57\) per gallon last year. Find the cost per mile.
Problem 53
Suppose you use the origin to test whether a linear equation is a direct variation. Does this method work? Support your answer with an example.
Problem 55
Graph each function by translating its parent function. $$ y=|x|-3 $$
Problem 55
Find the slope and the intercepts of each line. $$ y=-x+1000 $$
