2 Determine whether the graph shows a positive correlation, a negative correlation, or no correlation. If there is a positive or negative correlation, describe its meaning in the situation Strawberries Picked Quarts Picked Time (hours) Domestic Traveler Spending in the U.S., Source: The World Almanac, 2003 Year 4. Use the scatter plot that shows the domestic traveler spending. Use the points (1987, 235) and (1999, 446) to write the slope-intercept form of an equation for the line of fit shown in the scatter plot.

3 Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form to model the situation. 5. A television repair shop charges $35 plus $20 per hour. Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. 6. ( 1, 4), ( 5, 5) Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Assume that y varies directly as x. Then solve. 7. If y = 49 when x = 7, find x when y = 140. Write an equation of the line with the given slope and y-intercept 8. slope: 1, y-intercept: 8 9. Write an equation of the line that passes through each point with the given slope. 10. Write an equation of the line that passes through the pair of points. Write the point-slope form of an equation for a line that passes through the point with the given slope. 11. (4, 2), m = 1 2

4 Write each equation in standard form. 12. y + 3 = (x + 2) 13. Graph the system of equations. Then determine whether the system has no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. If the system has one solution, name it. 14. Use substitution to solve the system of equations Use elimination to solve the system of equations. 17.

5 Use the graph below to determine the number of solutions the system has. 8 y 7 y = 2x x 3y = 3 x = x 1 y = y = 4x y = 2x At a local electronics store, CDs were on sale. Some were priced at $14.00 and some at $ Sabrina bought 9 CDs and spent a total of $ How many $12.00 CDs did she purchase? 20. Dakota s math test grade was 7 points less than his science test grade. The sum of the grades was 183%. What did Dakota get on his math test? 21. Reid and Maria both play soccer. This season, Reid scored 4 less than twice the number of goals that Maria scored. The difference in the number of goals they scored was 6. How many goals did each of them score?

6 22. Dylan has 15 marbles. Some are red and some are white. The number of red marbles is three more than six times the number of the white marbles. Write a system of equations that can be used to find the number of white marbles, x, and the number of red marbles, y. 23. Solve the system of inequalities by graphing. 7 y x Suppose a car dealer receives a profit of $500 for each mid-sized car m sold and $750 for each sport-utility vehicle s sold. The dealer must sell at least two mid-sized cars for each sport-utility vehicle and must earn at least $3500 per week. 24. Write a system of inequalities for the situation. 25. Simplify. Assume that no denominator is equal to zero.

7 Find the degree of the polynomial. 30. Find the sum or difference

8 Find the product. 33. Find the product Find the product of each sum and difference. 39. Solve the equation. 40.

9 Factor the polynomial Factor the trinomial. 46. Solve the trinomial equation. 47. Factor the trinomial, if possible. If the trinomial cannot be factored using integers, write prime. 48.

10 Factor the polynomial, if possible. If the polynomial cannot be factored, write prime. 49. Solve the equation by factoring. 50. Solve the equation State the excluded values for each rational expression. 53. Simplify the expression. Find the quotient. 54. Simplify the expression
