Overlake School Summer Math Packet Algebra 2 Honors Name: Instructions 1. This is the packet you should be doing if you re entering Algebra 2 Honors in the Fall. 2. You may (and should) use your notes, textbook, the internet, friends, family, and other resources to help you complete this packet. The packet is meant as a review, not as a test. 3. You should work on this packet in a place where you can concentrate without distractions, and work at least an hour at a time as opposed to in small intervals. 4. Once you are finished, go back and highlight any problems you had a lot of difficulty completing or have questions about. Then answer the Post-Packet Questions below. Expectations 1. This packet will be collected on the first day of class. It will count similar to a homework assignment towards your first semester grade. 2. Expect a quiz on the material covered by this packet during the first week of the semester. If there are any topics that you feel rusty on, make sure to review them before the semester starts or with your teacher during the first week of class. 3. This packet should take you no more than 5 hours. 4. If, due to extenuating circumstances, you are unable to do this packet, please contact Wing L. Mui, math department chair, at wmui@overlake.org before the beginning of the school year.

Write your answer in the form of a complete sentence. You may use a calculator to assist in calculations for these problems. a. When mailing a package, the first ounce costs $0.32. Each additional ounce adds $0.24 to the cost. Let x be the number of ounces over one-ounce. If a package costs $1.52 to mail, how much does it weigh? b. A store charges 8% tax on all items. If the final price of an item with tax included was $16.74, what was the tag price on the item? c. The sides of a triangle are three consecutive odd integers.
