SHOW ALL WORK ON THIS TEST OR ON SEPARATE PAPER.  Circle answers.

TURN IN ALL WORKSHEETS.  CALCULATORS ARE REQUIRED ON THIS TEST.

 1.  Solve the systems of equations:

     a)     50x  9y  =    1                    b)        y  = 2x   4

              7x  2y  = – 8                              4x – 2y  =  8

                          

 

 

 

 

2.    Solve the system:                          3.     Solve the system:

       3x  +  2y  +  5z  =    2                                                       3x  +  2y           =  – 2

       2x  –  3y  +  2z  = 4                                                                 2y  –  3z  =     1

         x  +  4  +  2z =    2                                                        x  –  2y  +  2z  =    4                      

         

 

 

 

 

 

4.    Solve the system:                                                         5.     Solve the system:

        y 2 –  4x 2  = 105                                                                              xy = – 12

        y  =  3x  –  5                                                                                2x – y = – 11

 

 

 

 

 6.  Evaluate the determinants:    

   a)                                      b)                                   

 

 7.  Evaluate the determinant:

       

 

 

 8.  Solve by Cramer's Rule:              9.  Graph the intersection:

         x  –  2y  =  8                                      x  ³  0

     –8x  +  6y  = 32                                    2x – 3y  ³  12

                                                                  7x + 4y  >  28 

                                                                                                                                   

 

   

10.  Find the remainder if x 7 – 6 x 2 + 3 is divided by x – 1.

 

 

 

11.  Find a quadratic equation whose roots are x = 5 ± 3i.

 

  

 

12.  Solve for x.  Give irrational roots in radical form:

         x 4 – x 3 – 2 x 2 + x + 1 = 0

                              

 

  

In 13 - 14, find all roots and multiplicities by synthetic division: 

13.    x 3 + x 2 – 8 x – 12 = 0                             14.    x 4 – 5 x 3 + x 2 + 21 x – 18 = 0

 

  

 

In 15 - 16, sketch the graphs and give roots:

15.     y = (x – 2)3(x + 3)2(x – 4)                       16.     y = x 3 + 2 x 2 – 4 x – 8

 

 

                                                                                   

 In 17 - 20, solve the inequalities.  Give interval notation.

                  Sketch graphs when using graphing methods.

 17.    | x + 8 |  ≥ 6                                              18.     –7x2 + 40x > –12      (Give exact form!)

                                                                                      

  19.                                                       20.
