Then graph the inequality. 19. Ronald is setting up an aquarium in his new office. At one pet store, fish cost $2 each and an aquarium cost $40. At another pet store, fish cost $3 each and an aquarium cost $36. Write and solve a system of equations to represent the cost of x fish and an aquarium at each store. Solve this the system. What does this solution represent? If Ronald wants 5 fish, from which pet store should he buy his aquarium? Explain. Other 20. Tickets to a local movie were sold at $6.00 for adults and $4.50 for students. There were 240 tickets sold for a total of $1,155.00. a. Write a system of equations to model the situation. b. Solve the system to find the number of adult tickets sold and the number of student tickets sold. c. Explain the method you used to solve the system. 21. Without graphing, decide whether the system has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. Explain. y = 3x + 4 y = 3x + 8 5

ID: A 5. ANS: y > 4x 3 6. ANS: admission fee: $3.25 skate rental fee: $2.50 7. ANS: 1,100 8. ANS: x + y = 82 x y = 24 53 and 29 9. ANS: ( 1, 4) 10. ANS: ( 9, 9) 11. ANS: (10, 1) 12. ANS: (5, 4) 13. ANS: (2, 5) 14. ANS: 1 2
ID: A 15. ANS: 16. ANS: L4 The figure is an isosceles triangle. L4 3
ID: A 17. ANS: L2 ESSAY 18. ANS: [4] y < x + 4 Draw a dashed line at y = x + 4. The line is dashed because the value of y cannot be equal to x + 4. Shade the y values below the line since y should be less than x + 4. [3] minor error in graph [2] minor error in equation [1] correct graph without explanation 4
ID: A 19. ANS: [4] y = 2x + 40 y = 3x + 36 The solution is (4, 48). If Ronald buys 4 fish and an aquarium, it will cost $48 in either pet store. Five fish will cost 2(5) + 40, or $50, in the first store, and 3(5) + 36, or $51 in the second store. To spend less, he should buy at the first store. [3] minor computational error [2] correct equations and solution, error in interpretation [1] correct equations only OR correct choice of pet store without explanation OTHER 20. ANS: a. 6a + 4.5s = 1,155 a + s = 240 b. There were 50 adult tickets and 190 student tickets. c. Methods may vary. Sample: By multiplying the second equation by 6, it becomes 6a + 6s = 1,440. You can then use subtraction to eliminate a. 21. ANS: The system has one solution. A system of linear equations has no solution when the equations are of parallel lines and infinitely many solutions when the equations are of the same line. The slopes of the lines are not equal, so neither case applies. 5
