REVIEW: 6.1 Solving by Graphing:

Remember:

To graph a line we use the slope intercept form:

y = mx +b

Slope = = STARING POINT (The point where it crosses the y-axis)

System Solution: The point where the two lines intersect (cross):

(1, 3)

Remember: What are the requirements

for this to happen?

REVIEW: 6.2: Solving by Substitution:

1): Isolate a variable2): Substitute the variable into the other equation3): Solve for the variable

4): Go back to the original equations, substitute, solve for the second variable

0): THINK - Which variable is the easiest to isolate?

5): Check

6.3: Solving by Elimination:

1): Pick a variable to eliminate

2): Add the two equations to Eliminate a variable3): Solve for the remaining variable

4): Go back to the original equation, substitute, solve for the second variable.

0): THINK: Which variable is easiest to eliminate.

5): Check

NOTE:

We can solve system of equations using a graph, the substitution or eliminations process.

The best method to use will depend on the form of the equations and how precise we want the answer to be.

CONCEPT SUMMARY: METHOD WHEN TO USE

Graphing When you want a visual display of the equations, or when you want to estimate the solution.

6.4 Application of Linear Systems:Break-Even Point: The point for business is where the income equals the expenses.

GOAL:

MODELING PROBLEMS: Systems of equations are useful to for solving and modeling problems that involve mixtures, rates and Break-Even points.Ex: A puzzle expert wrote a new sudoku puzzle book. His initial costs are $864. Binding and packaging each book costs $0.80. The price of the book is $2.00. How many books must be sold to break even?

SOLUTION:1) Write the system of equations described in the problem.

Income: y = $2x

Let x = number of books soldLet y = number of dollars of expense

or income

Expense: y = $0.80x + 864

SOLUTION: (Continue)2) Solve the system of equations for the break-even point using the best method.

$0.80x + 864 = $2x

To break even we want: Expense = Income

864 = 2x -0.80x 864 = 1.2x 720 = x

There should be 720 books sold for the puzzle expert to break-even.

YOU TRY IT:

Ex: A fashion designer makes and sells hats. The material for each hat costs $5.50. The hats sell for $12.50 each. The designer spends $1400 on advertising. How many hats must the designer sell to break-even?

SOLUTION:1) Write the system of equations described in the problem.

Income: y = $12.50x

Let x = number of hats soldLet y = number of dollars of expense

or income

Expense: y = $5.50x + $1400

SOLUTION: (Continue)2) Solve the system of equations for the break-even point using the best method.

$5.50x + $1400 = $12.50x

To break even we want: Expense = Income

1400 = 12.5x -5.50x 1400 = 7x 200 = x

There should be 200 hats sold for the fashion designer to break-even.
