Mth 86 Exam 3 Practice Franz Helfenstein NAME

Show your work. It must be neat and organized with answers simplified and boxed in for full credit. Use a ruler to draw straight lines. Label all axis. Put scales on all graphs. Use two decimal accuracy.

|1) (a) Graph: 6x + 5y = -12 |[pic] |

|(b) Graph: y = x + 8 | |

|(c) Give the lines' intersection ( , ) | |

| | |

|(d) Graph y = | |

|(e) Give the y-intercept. y = | |

| | |

|(f) Give the max coordinates. ( , ) | |

2) There are 3 roots for y = 0.1x3 – 2x2 + 3. Find all three and give their coordinates.

| | | | |

3) For #2, what value of x will give y = 5? x =

4) Give the slope of the line which passes through (-4.6 , 8.2) & (2.5 , -4.6).

5) Give the equation of the line (in slope-intercept form) that passes through (-10, 26) and (15, 11)

|6) Give the equation of this line in slope-intercept form. |[pic] |

|7) Give the equation of this line in slope-intercept form. |[pic] |

Graph the following two equations in the proscribed region. You graph must cross the boundary correctly.

|8) y = 0.5 x – 2750 |9) y = -9.45 x + 2740 |

|10) Consider the plot of Joe's Trip. |[pic] |

|(a) What are the units of the slope? | |

| | |

|(b) Give a short story that could produce this graph. | |

| |[pic] |

| | |

|11) Consider the case where time is plotted on the x-axis and population numbers are plotted on the y-axis. | |

| | |

| | |

|Give a narrative interpretation of: | |

(b) positive slope? (c) negative slope? (d) zero slope?

|12) Use your calculator's linear regression feature to find the "best fit" linear equation for this data in |x |y |

|slope-intercept form. |0 |20.3 |

| |10 |28.3 |

|a) y = |20 |32.2 |

| |30 |42.1 |

|b) Using the equation, what is the y-value when x is 100? y = |40 |45.6 |

| |50 |52.5 |

|c) Using the equation, what x-value will yield y = 0? x = | | |

13) This data represents mercury concentration found in the sea bottom of Lake Superior.

|Depth (cm) |0 |

d) Using your regression equation, give the sediment depth at which the mercury level drops to 10 ppb

See last page for graphing hints and answers.

Note: Problem 13 does not make sense as an exponential. It should be a quadratic. y = ax2 + bx + c
