1. Solve the system by the method of substitution{x2 + y = 0x2 − 4x− y = 0

Similar question: {x2 + y2 = 169x2 − 8y = 104

2. Break-Even Analysis A small software company invests $ 25,000 to produce a software package that

will sell for $ 69.95. Each unit can be produced for $ 45.25

(a) How many units must be sold to break even?

(b) How many items must be sold to make a profit of $ 12,000?

3. Solve the system by the method of elimination{x+34 + y−1

3 = 12x− y = 12

4. Sketch the graph of the system of inequalities{x2 + y2 ≤ 364x− 3y ≤ 0

5. Sketch the region determined by the constraints. The find the minimum and maximum values of

the objective function (if possible) and where they occur, subject to the indicated constrains.

Objective function:

z = 3x + 4y

Constrains: x + 3y ≤ 123x + 2y ≤ 15x ≥ 0y ≥ 0

6. Use matrices to solve the system of equations (if possible). Use Gaussian elimination with

back-substitution 3x + 2y − z + w = 0x− y + 4z + 2w = 25−2x + y + 2z − w = 2x + y + z + w = 6

7. In this exercise, find x and y 16 4 5 4−3 13 15 60 2 4 0

8. Solve for X in the equation 3X + A = B, given

A =

(1 −20 3

), B =

(−3 42 1

)

9. Evaluate the expression
