Determine what is required. Answers must be handwritten on separate sheet. Show the
necessary computations if needed or an explanation as the basis of your answer. Thanks.

A. Determine whether each of the following equation is linear or not. If the answer is “not linear” support
your answer.[10 pts]

1. 3x + 5y + 15 = 0 4. 5x - 4xy = 12
2. 3x - 12 = 0 5. 16 + 4y = 0
3. 2x + 4y2 = 12

B. Determine the slope, x-intercept and y intercept of the lines with the following equations. [ 10 pts]

1. 4x = 2y + 16 4. 2x = 10

3. with equation 𝑥 − 3 𝑦 + 4 = 0

D. Tell whether the graph of each pair of equations are parallel, perpendicular or neither. Show the necessary
information to support your answer. [3 pts each]

1. 5y = x – 7 2. 2x + 5y = 8 3. 3x + 2y = 6
5y = 3 + x 6 + 2y = 5x 3x - 2y + 1 =0

F. Verbal Application. Determine what is required.

1. Some college students decide to set up a tutoring service for high school students. One
student was charged 100 pesos for 3 hours of tutoring. Another student was charged 350
pesos for 7 hours of tutoring. The relationship between the cost (C) and time (t) is linear and
applicable for minimum of two hours and maximum of 10 hours.
a. What is the independent variable in this situation? [1pt]
b. What is the dependent variable? [1 pt]
c. what is the domain in this situation? [1 pt]
d. Determine an equation to model the relationship between cost and time. [4 pts]
e. How much is the charge for tutoring 5 hours? [2 pts]
f. How is the slope interpreted in this case? [2pts]
g. what is the cost intercept? [1 pt]

2. In certain parts of the world, the number of deaths 𝑁 per week have been observed to be
linearly related to the average concentration 𝑠 of sulfur dioxide in the air. Suppose there are
97 deaths when 𝑠=100 mg/m3 and 110 deaths when 𝑠=500 mg/m3.
a. What is the independent variable in this case? Spell out. What is the dependent variable?
Spell out
b. What is the functional relationship between 𝑁 and 𝑠 ?
c. Use the function in c to find the number of deaths per week when the average
concentration of sulfur dioxide is 300 mg/m3

3. Temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit is a linear function of temperature measured in


degrees Celsius.
a. Use the fact that 0° Celsius is equal to 32° Fahrenheit and 100° Celsius is equal to 212°
Fahrenheit to write an equation for this linear function.
b. Use the function you obtained in part a to convert 15° Celsius to Fahrenheit.
c. Convert 68° Fahrenheit to Celsius.
d. What temperature is the same in both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scale?
