Solve: x + y + z = 580, x = y + z −20, z = y + 120 The solution is (280,90,210), so the sandwich has 280 calo- ries, the soup has 90 calories, and the cookie has 210 calo- ries. 24. 16.

It is possible for a vertical line to intersect the graph more than once, so this is not the graph of a function. 28. There is no vertical line that can intersect the graph more than once, so this is the graph of a function. 30. Let T , G, and H represent the number of tickets Tom, Gary, and Hal begin with, respectively. After Hal gives tickets to Tom and Gary, each has the following number of tickets: Tom: T + T, or 2T, Gary: G + G, or 2G, , so the meal should have 11 The solution is 8 3 18. Let x, y, and z represent the amount of the Perkins loan, the Stafford loan, and the bank loan, respectively. Solve: x + y + z = 32, 000, 0.05x + 0.04y + 0.07z = 1500, 0.05x = 0.07z + 220 The solution is (10, 000, 18, 000, 4000), so Terrance has a Perkins loan for $10,000, a Stafford loan for $18,000, and a bank loan for $4000. Hal: H −T −G. After Tom gives tickets to Gary and Hal, each has the following number of tickets: Gary: 2G + 2G, or 4G, (H −T −G) + (H −T −G), or 2(H −T −G), 2T −2G −(H −T −G), or 3T −H −G After Gary gives tickets to Hal and Tom, each has the following number of tickets: 2(H −T −G) + 2(H −T −G), or 4(H −T −G) Tom: (3T −H −G) + (3T −H −G), or 2(3T −H −G), Gary: 4G −2(H −T −G) −(3T −H −G), or 7G −H −T. Since Hal, Tom, and Gary each finish with 40 tickets, we write the following system of equations: 4(H −T −G) = 40, 2(3T −H −G) = 40, 7G −H −T = 40 Solving the system we find that T = 35, so Tom started with 35 tickets. Hal: 20. Let x, y, and z represent the number of 2-point field goals, 3-point field goals, and 1-point foul shots made, respec- tively. The total number of points scored from each of these types of goals is 2x, 3y, and z. Solve: 2x + 3y + z = 92, x + y + z = 50, x = 19 + z The solution is (32, 5, 13), so the Knicks made 32 two-point field goals, 5 three-point field goals, and 13 foul shots. Tom: Hal: 22. Let x, y, and z represent the number of orders that can be processed alone by Steven, Teri, and Isaiah, respectively.

Machines B and C can polish 4200 lenses, so machine B can polish 4200 −2300, or 1900 lenses.

The total attendance is 100, so we have Equation (1), x + y + z = 100. The amount taken in was $100, so Equa- tion (2) is 10x + 3y + 0.5z = 100. There is no other in- formation that can be translated to an equation. Clearing decimals in Equation (2) and then eliminating z gives us Equation (3), 95 + 25y = 500. Dividing by 5 on both sides, we have Equation (4), 19x + 5y = 100. Since we have only two equations, it is not possible to eliminate z from another pair of equations. However, in Equation (4), note that 5 is a factor of both 5y and 100. Therefore, 5 must also be a factor of 19x, and hence of x, since 5 is not a factor of 19. Then for some positive integer n, x = 5n. (We require n to be positive, since the number of adults clearly cannot be negative and must also be nonzero since the exercise states that the audience consists of adults, senior citizens, and children.) We have: 19 · 5n + 5y = 100 19n + y = 20 Dividing by 5 Since n and y must both be positive, n = 1. (If n > 1, then 19n + y > 20.)
