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?
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. The base of a 30 -foot ladder is 10 feet from a building. If the ladder reaches the flat roof, how tall is the building?
In a round-robin chess tournament, each player is paired with every other player once. The formula $$ N=\frac{x^{2}-x}{2} $$ models the number of chess games, \(N,\) that must be played in a round-robin tournament with \(x\) chess players. Use this formula to solve. In a round-robin chess tournament, 21 games were played. How many players were entered in the tournament?
When 3 times a number is subtracted from 4, the absolute value of the difference is at least 5. Use interval notation to express the set of all numbers that satisfy this condition.
In Exercises 122–133, use the strategy for solving word problems, modeling the verbal conditions of the problem with a linear inequality. To earn an A in a course, you must have a final average of at least 90%. On the first four examinations, you have grades of 86%, 88%, 92%, and 84%. If the final examination counts as two grades, what must you get on the final to earn an A in the course?
