1. Midtown Delivery Service delivers packages which cost $1.80 per package to deliver. The fixed cost to run the delivery truck is $105 per day. If the company charges $8.80 per package, how many packages must be delivered daily to reach the equilibrium point?
A) 9 packages
B) 15 packages
C) 10 packages
D) 58 packages
2. Determine whether the given ordered set of numbers is a solution of the system of equations.
(6, -2)
x + y = -8
x - y = -4
Yes or no?
3. Determine whether the given ordered set of numbers is a solution of the system of equations.
(-3, 2)
x + y = -1
x - y = -5
Yes or no?
4. Solve the problem.
The bank\'s temperature display shows that it is 34° Celsius. What is the temperature in Fahrenheit?
A) 118.8°
B) 93.2°
C) 1.1°
D) 36.7°
Solution
1. Let x be the number of packages that must be delivered to reach the equilibrium point. Then the delivery cost is: 1.8x+105. And the company\'s charge is: 8.8x. At the equilibrium we have: 1.8x+105 = 8.8x which yields x=15.
Therefore 15 packages must be delivered.
2. (6,-2) is NOT a solution to the system since:
6 + (-2) != 8 and 6- (-2) != -4
3. (-3,2) is a solution to the system since:
(-3) + 2 = -1 and (-3) - 2 = -5
4. If T is the temperature in celsius then 9/5*T + 32 = F, where F is the temperature in Farenheit.
Since given: T= 34, we get : F = (9/5)*34 + 32 = 93.2 degrees Farenheit.
