The given expression is 4(xy)2− 2x + 5y.
It is required to find the value of the given expression when the value of x is 6 and y is 2.
To find the value of the given expression, rewrite the given expression. Substitute the given values for x and y. Then solve further to get the result.
The given expression is 4(xy)² – 2x+5y
Substitute 6 for x and 2 for y in the given expression.
4(xy)²-2x+5y = 4(6×2)²-2(6)+5(2)
4(xy)²-2x+5y=4(12)² -2(6)+5(2)
4(xy)²-2x+5y= 4(144)-12+10
4(xy)²-2x+5y=576-2
4(xy)²-2x+5y=574
The value of the expression 4(xy)2 − 2x + 5y is 574.

It is given that Camilla and Nadia start a business tutoring students in maths. They rent an office for $250 per month and charge $20 per hour per student.
It is required to calculate the profit they make each month if they have 10 students. It is also required to write a linear equation to solve this.
To find the profit, subtract the rent amount from the total amount they get from students. Then solve the linear equation and get the result.
Let x be the profit they make each month. Also, there are 4 weeks in a month.
The profit can be calculated by subtracting the rent amount from the total amount they get from students.
So the linear equation is
x=4(10×20)-250
x=4(200)-250
x=800-250
x=550
Therefore, Camilla and Nadia make a profit of $550 per month.
Camilla and Nadia make a profit of $550 per month. Also the linear equation is x = 4(10×20) − 250.

Given a system of equations,
4y − 3x = 14
y + 3x = 10
It is asked to solve the given equations.
To solve the problem make any one coefficient of the equation the same and then take a difference of both the equations. It will eliminate one variable, and then solve for x or y. Then put the value of x or y in any of the given equations to get both x and y.
Multiply the second equation by 5.
5(y+3x)=5(10)
5y+15x=50
Subtract the equation (of step 1) from the first given equation.
5y-3x-(5y+15x)=14(50)
5y-3x-5y-15x=-36

Given a system of equations,
x + 4y = 6
3x − 4y = 14
It is asked to solve the given equations.
To solve the problem add or take the difference of both the equations to eliminate any one variable from the equation, then solve for x or y. Then put the value of x or y in any of the given equations to get both x and y.
Add both of the equations and then simplify.
Given the System of equations,
x+4y=6
3x-4y=14
Add both of the equations and then simplify.
x+4y+(3x-4y) =6+(14)
x+4y+3x-4y=6+14
4x=20
x=5
So the value of x is 5
Now up the value of x in the first equation and simplify
5+4y=6
4y=6-5

\(y=\frac{1}{4}\)
So the solved ordered pair is \(\left(5, \frac{1}{4}\right)\).
The ordered pair of the given system of equation is \(\left(5, \frac{1}{4}\right)\).
Page 11 Exercise 3 Answer
Given that the total money spent is $52, the total number of movies watched is 6, the matinee cost is $7 and the evening show costs $12.
It is asked how many of each movie type he attends and to solve it by graphing.
To solve the problem first form the pair of equations according to the given information that is total movie watched and total money spent and then plot the graph using the equation in slope-intercept form that is \(\frac{x}{h}+\frac{y}{k}=1\), where h and k are the intercepts on the axes. The intersection in the graph is the solution of the equations.
Let x be the number of times Alejandro has gone to a matinee and y be the number of times he has attended the evening show. Then, the equation formed by the given data is,
x + y = 6
7x + 12y = 52
Solve this equation and write them in slope-intercept form.
\(\frac{x}{6}+\frac{y}{6}\) = 1
\(\frac{x}{\frac{52}{7}}+\frac{y}{\frac{13}{3}}\) = 1
Plot the lines using intercept on the graph.
Here the intersection point is (4,2).
So x = 4 and y = 2
So he attended 4 matinees and 2 evening shows.
The graphical plot of the equations formed is,
Alejandro attended 4 matinee movies and 2 evening show movies.
It is asked why the intersection of the graphs is the solution.
The intersection of the graph is the solution because it is the only point that satisfies both equations.
The equations are,
The Equations are, x+y=6
7x+12y=52
Multiply the first equation by 7 and subtract the second equation
(7x+7y)-(7x+12y)=42-52
7x+7y-7x-12y=-10
-5y=-10
\(y=\frac{10}{5}\)y=2
put the value of y in the first equation
x+y=6
x+2=6
x=6-2
x=4
So the solution is (2,4) which is the same as the intersection point. Also, these are the only points that satisfy both the equations.
The intersection of the graph is the solution because it is the only point that satisfies both equations.
Page 13 Exercise 1 Answer
A system of inequalities is given.
y > −x + 2
y < x + 4
It is asked to identify the graph of the solution of the given system from the options given below.
A
B
C
D
To solve this question, first consider the given inequalities as simple lines y = −x + 2 and,
y = x + 4. Determine its x and y intercepts for both and draw corresponding lines passing through these points. As the inequality y > −x + 2 is greater than the inequality, shade the area above the line, and for less than inequality y < x + 4, shade the area below the line. The common shaded area will be the solution for the given system.
Substitute 0 for y and determine the x-intercept of the line y = −x + 2.
0 = −x + 2
−x = −2
x = 2
Thus the x-intercept of the line y = −x + 2 is (2,0).
Substitute 0 for x and determine the y intercept of the line y = −x + 2.
y = 0 + 2
y = 2
Thus the y-intercept of the line y = −x + 2 is (0,2).
Substitute 0 for y and determine the x intercept of the line y = x + 4.
0 = x + 4
x = −4
Thus the x-intercept of the line y = x + 4 is (−4,0).
Substitute 0 for x and determine the y intercept of the line y = x + 4.
y = 0 + 4
y = 4
Thus the y-intercept of the line y = x + 4 is (0,4).
Plot the points (2,0) and (0,2), draw a line passing through them, and shade the area above the line to show the inequality y > −x + 2. Similarly, Plot the points (−4,0) and (0,4), draw a line passing through them, and shade the area below the line to show the inequality y < x + 4.
The common shaded area is the solution of the system.
Compare the graphs given in the options and determine the correct answer.
The graph given in option A is exactly similar to the obtained graph which represents the solution of the system of inequalities,
y > −x + 2
y < x + 4
The graph given in option B represents the system of inequality,
y > x + 2
y > x + 4
The graph given in option C represents the system of inequality,
y < x + 2
y < x + 4
The graph given in option D represents the system of inequality,
y < −x + 2
y < x + 4
Thus, option A is the correct answer.
The graph of the solution of the given system is obtained and therefore, option A is the correct answer.

The function g(x) = \(\frac{1}{3}|x-2|+10\) is given.
It is asked to compare the given graph with the parent graph f(x) = ∣x∣.
To solve this question, first plot the graphs of f(x) = ∣x∣ and,
g(x) = \(\frac{1}{3}|x-2|+10\). Then observe the second graph and how it changes concerning the first graph.
Ploth the graphs of f(x) = ∣x∣ and,g(x) = \(\frac{1}{3}|x-2|+10\) in a single screen and compare them.
In the function, the value in the mode is x−2 which means that it is shifted 2 units to the right side of the parent graph which can be seen from the graph.
Thus, \(\frac{1}{3}\) is multiplied with |x – 2|, which is greater than zero and less than one, which indicates that the graph is vertically stretched by \(\frac{1}{3}\) units from the parent graph.
Finally, 10 is added to \(\frac{1}{3}\)|x-2|, which indicates that the graph is shifted 10 units vertically upward which also can be seen from the graph.
The graph of g(x) = \(\frac{1}{3}|x-2|+10\) is compared with its parent graph,
f(x) = |x| and three important results are obtained.
First, horizontal shift of 2 units to the right side.
Second, vertical stretch of \(\frac{1}{3}\)|x-2| units.
Third, a Vertical shift of 10 units in the upward direction.
Page 13 Exercise 3 Answer
It is given that Manuel wants to raise between $250 and $350 for charity. His parents donated $70 and he plans to ask others to contribute $10.
It is asked to write an inequality to determine the number of people who will be needed to contribute for Manuel to reach his goal.
To obtain the inequality, let the number of contributors be x. Each contributor will need to donate $10.Therefore, the total amount to be collected is $10x.
But it is given that Manuel already has $70 donated by his parents. Let y be the total amount of charity he would collect, then y = 70 + 10x.
This amount will be between $250 and $350. Therefore, the inequality to solve the problem will be,
Given, 250<y<350
250<70+10x<35
Simplify Further,
250-70<10x<350-70
180<10x<280
18<x<28
The inequality to solve the problem is 18 < x < 28.
It is given that Manuel wants to raise between $250 and $350 for charity. His parents donated $70 and he plans to ask others to contribute $10.
It is asked to show the solution on the graph to determine the number of people who will be needed to contribute for Manuel to reach his goal and explain the same in words.
To solve this question, use the inequality obtained in the previous part of this exercise which is,
250 < 70 + 10x < 350. First, solve this inequality for x and then graph the solution.
Solve the inequality 250 < 70 + 10x < 350 for x.
Subtract 70 forms from all parts of inequality,
250 − 70 < 70 + 10x − 70 < 350 − 70
180 < 10x < 280
Divide by 10 in all parts of inequality,
⇒\(\frac{180}{10}<\frac{10 x}{10}<\frac{280}{10}\)
18 < x < 28
Thus, the number of people who will be needed to contribute for Manuel to reach his goal is between 18 and 28.
To graph this solution, first plot the line y = 70 + 10x.
After that show the range of the money collection which is 250 < y < 350. For this, draw two lines, y = 250 and, y = 350, and shade the area between them.
After that from the intersection points of this region and the line y = 70 + 10x, draw two vertical lines that will give the solution of the system which is the range 18 < x < 28.
The number of people who will be needed to contribute for Manuel to reach his goal is between 18 and 28. The graph of the solution is obtained.

(x2 + 6x2) + (−4x2 + 2x − 4x + 16x)
It is required to classify the given equations as those equivalent to 3x2 + 14x and not equivalent to 3x2 + 14x.
To do so, simplify each given expression and check whether it is equivalent to 3x2 + 14x or not.
Simplify the first given expression (5x2 + 10x + 6) − (2x2 − 4x + 6).
Given expression (5x²+10x+6)-(2x²-4x+6)
(5x²+10x+6)-(2x²-4x+6)= 5x²+10x+6-2x²+4x-6
(5x²+10x+6)-(2x²-4x+6)= (5-2)x² +(10+4)x+6-6
(5x²+10x+6)-2x²-4c+6)=3x²+14
Therefore, (5x2 + 10x + 6) − (2x2 − 4x + 6) is equivalent to 3x2 + 14x.
Simplify the second given expression x (3x + 14).
x(3x + 14) = 3x2 + 14x

6x²-(9x²+12x)-2x=(6-9)x²-(12-2)x
6x²-(9x²+12x)-2x=-3x²-14x
Therefore, 6x2 − (9x2 + 12x) − 2x is not equivalent to 3x2 + 14x.
Simplify the fourth given expression (x2 + 6x2) + (−4x2 + 2x − 4x + 16x).
Given Expression (x²+6x²)+(-4x²+2x-4x+16x)
(x²+6x²)+(-4x²+2x-4x+16x)=x²+6x²-4x²+2x-4x+16)x
(x²+6x²)+(-4x²+2x-4x+16x)=(1+6-4)x²+(2-4+16)x
(x²+6x²)+ (-4x²+2x-4x+16x)=3x²+14x

Given is the polynomial representing the area of a square.
64x2 + 96x + 36
It is asked to find the expression for the length of the sides.
To solve the problem use the formula for the area of the square that is side2 and equate it to the given polynomial and then simplify and solve for the side.
Equate the given polynomial with the area of the square that is side 2.
Given Expression 64x² +96x+36
Side² =4((4x)²+2.4x.3+3²)
Side²=(2(4x+3))²
Side2=8x+6
So the expression for the side of the square is (8x+6).
The expression for the side length is (8x+6) units.
Page 20 Exercise 3 Answer
Given, the dimension of the garden is 12m × 8m. A pathway of xm is to be made around the perimeter of the garden having the same area as the garden.
It is asked to sketch the situation and to find a polynomial representing the total area of the garden and pathway.
To solve the problem first sketch the situation and then find the area of the garden using the formula for the area of the rectangle substituting the values of length and breadth
Then find the area of the pathway assuming it to be made up of four different rectangles.
Then add the area of the garden and the area of the pathway to get the polynomial representing the total area of the garden and the pathway.
Sketch of the given situation.
The length of the garden is l = 12m.
Breadth of the garden is b=8m
The area of the garden is,
A=lxb
A=12×8
A=96
So the area of the garden is 96m2.
Assume that the pathway is formed of 4 rectangles. Two rectangles having the length of 12m and breadth of xm, and other two rectangles having the length of 8m + 2xm and breadth of xm, then the total area of the pathway is given by,
A=lxb+lxb+lxb+lxb
⇒ \(\begin{aligned}
& A=(12 \times x)+(12 \times x)+((8+2 x) \times x)+((8+2 x) \times x) \\
& A=2 \cdot(12 \times x)+2 \cdot((8+2 x) \times x) \\
& A=24 x+16 x+4 x^2 \\
& A=4 x^2+40 x
\end{aligned}\)
So the area of the pathway is A = 4x2 + 40x.
The total area will be the sum of the area of the pathway and the area of the garden.
Total Area= Area of the garden+Area of the pathway
2A=96+4x²+40x
A=48+2x²+20x
A=2x²+20x+48
The polynomial for the total area of the garden and the pathway is 2x2 + 20x + 48.
Given, the dimension of the garden is 12m × 8m. A pathway of xm is to be made around the perimeter of the garden having the same area as the garden.
It is asked to find the width of the pathway.
To solve the problem, first equate the area of the pathway from the previous problem with the area of the garden to get a polynomial. Then factorise the polynomial and simplify and solve for x.
The area of the garden is 96m2 and the area of the pathway from the previous part of the question is A = 4×2 + 40x.
Equate the area of the pathway with the area of the garden.
\(\begin{aligned}& 4 x^2+40 x=96 \\
& x^2+10 x=24 \\
& x^2+10 x-24=0
\end{aligned}\)
So the polynomial is x2+10x-24=0
Now factorize the polynomial to get the value of x.
\(\begin{aligned}
& x^2+10 x-24=0 \\
& x^2+12 x-2 x-24=0 \\
& x(x+12)-2(x+12)=0 \\
& (x-2) \cdot(x+12)=0
\end{aligned}\)
So x = 2 or −12 but as length cannot be negative,
x = 2m
As x is the width of the pathway so width of the pathway is 2m.
The width of the pathway is 2 meters.
