(1 pt) An important application of systems of equations arises in connection with supply and demand. As the price of a product increases, the demand for that produce decreases. However, at higher prices, suppliers are willing to produce greater quantities of the product. Suppose a chain of electronics stores sells hand-held color televisions. The weekly demand and supply models are given as follows 4. (1 pt) Solve the following system of equations. 4x + 3y −3x − y =9 = −2 Please write your solution(s) in the ordered-pair form.

The first few perfect squares are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36. Now suppose we have a square whose area is 2 square units. First, you might ask yourself whether or not it is possible to have such a square. You might be surprised to find out that this is really an important question to mathematicians, but here we will just assume that there is such a thing. Well, if there is such a thing as a square whose area is 2 square units, what is the length of its side? Its length must be more than 1 unit since a square whose side has length 1 unit has area 1 square unit. Its length must be less than 2 units, since a square whose sides have length 2 units has area 4 square units. √ We can, of course, say that its length is 2 units, but how long would that be? √ Surprisingly, 2 is not only not a whole number, it is not even a fraction. We can find better and better approximations to it, but we can never find a fraction whose square is 2. In fact, it turns out that if a number is not a perfect square its square root can never be equal to a fraction. But, since there are squares whose areas are 2 units, these square roots are really numbers and we must figure out how to deal with them. √ 1. (1 pt) Simplify the numerical expression − 121. Answer: Note: You cannot use any operations except negation (-). 2. (1 pt) Change the radical √ −5 8 √ into simplest radical form A C, where A and C are all integers. Answer: A = and C = 3. (1 pt) Change the radical √ 3 27 √ into simplest radical form A C, where A and C are all integers. Answer: A = and C = One of the things that we do is to simplify things somewhat. For example, suppose we have found approximate values for the square roots of the√numbers than 8. √ smaller √ Since 8 = 4*2, 8 = 4 ∗ 2 but 4 is a perfect square and √ 4√= 2 √ √ so 8 = 2 ∗ 2. [We will usually write this as 2 2] and we can just double the value we have used to approximate the square root of 2. This gives the idea that we can make our calculations with square roots somewhat easier by taking out the largest square in under the square root sign. √ For example if we want to simplify 4608 we√should just notice √ that 4608 = 2 × 2304 and 2304 = 482 . Thus 4608 = 48 2. But most of us can’t notice things like that quite so easily. But we can use prime factorization to make that job much easier. 4608 = 2 × 2304 = 22 × 1152 = 23 × 576 = 24 × 288 = 25 × 144 = 26 × 72 = 27 × 36 = 28 × 18 = 29 × 9 = 29 × 32 . Now 28 = 24 × 24 since if we multiply four 2’s together and multiply them by four more 2’s we have multiplied √ So √ eight 2’s together. 4 ) ∗ (24 ) ∗ 2 and thus 4608 = 24 × 3 × 2 = 4608 = 3 × 3 × (2 √ 48 2. If we were writing this as the answer to a problem we 4. (3 pts) If we start with the idea that if a square with sides of length one unit then its area is one square unit. We call this a square whose sides have length one unit a unit square Now, if a square has sides lengths are whole numbers of units we can see how to find the area by breaking it into unit squares (see the diagram). Thus, we can see that if a square had sides of length 3 units we can exactly fit 9 unit squares into it. Suppose we have measured a square in square units, for example, if its area is 9 square units. Then we say that the length of a side of the square the is the square root of the area of the square. So, in the case of a square of area 9 square units, the length of the side is 3 units and 3 is called the square root of 9 [which we 1 would write 48*sqrt(2) because the answer box cannot make a √ and the * separates the number from the s in sqrt. Simplify each of the following: √ 1) √32= . 2) √27= . . 3) √18= 4) √50= . . 5) √72= 6) 300= . Sometimes things are a bit√more complicated. For example suppose we want to simplify 1080. When we factor we find that 1080 = (23 ) × (33 ) × 5 = (22 ) ∗ ×32 ) ∗ 2 ∗ 3 ∗ 5. The only factors that are perfect squares are 22 and 32 . √ So we can √ take out 2 and 3 and we are left with 2×3× 2 ∗ 3 ∗ 5 which is 6 30. Simplify: √ 1) √24= . 2) √420= . . 3) √375= 4) √96= . . 5) 27000= 5. (1 pt) Express the number r 3 − 27 64 as a reduced fraction.
