In Exercises 95–102, use interval notation to represent all values of x satisfying the given conditions. $$ y=|2 x-5|+1 \text { and } y>9 $$
Write a quadratic equation in general form whose solution set is \(\\{-3,5\\}\).
Solve equation by the method of your choice. $$ \frac{1}{x^{2}-3 x+2}=\frac{1}{x+2}+\frac{5}{x^{2}-4} $$
Use the Pythagorean Theorem and the square root property to solve. Express answers in simplified radical form. Then find a decimal approximation to the nearest tenth. a. A wheelchair ramp with a length of 122 inches has a horizontal distance of 120 inches. What is the ramp's vertical distance? b. Construction laws are very specific when it comes to access ramps for the disabled. Every vertical rise of 1 inch requires a horizontal run of 12 inches. Does this ramp satisfy the requirements?
Will help you prepare for the material covered in the first section of the next chapter. Here are two sets of ordered pairs: $$ \begin{aligned} &\text { set } 1:\\{(1,5),(2,5)\\}\\\ &\operatorname{set} 2:\\{(5,1),(5,2)\\} \end{aligned} $$ In which set is each x@coordinate paired with only one y@coordinate?
