Use a software program or a graphing utility to solve the system of linear equations. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION. If the system has an infinite number of solutions, set x5 = t and solve for x1, x2, x3, and x4 in terms of t.) x1 − x2 + 2x3 + 2x4 + 6x5 = 16 3x1 − 2x2 + 4x3 + 4x4 + 12x5 = 33 x2 − x3 − x4 − 3x5 = −9 2x1 − 2x2 + 4x3 + 5x4 + 15x5 = 34 2x1 − 2x2 + 4x3 + 4x4 + 13x5 = 34 (x1, x2, x3, x4, x5) =

After a weekend of lucrative gigs, a singer finds herself with an extra $ 1,500. She currently has $4350 of credit card debt, on which she is charged an annual yield of 24%. Putting $1,500 toward this would cut that debt to $1,850. Calculate the annual rate of return if she does this. Round, if necessary, to the nearest 0.1%.

Janine is considering buying a water filter and a reusable water
bottle rather than buying bottled water. Will doing so save her
money?
First, determine what information you need to answer this
question,
How much water does Janine drink in a day? She normally drinks 4 bottles a day, each 16.9 ounces.
How much does a bottle of water cost? She buys 24-packs of 16.9 ounce bottles for $3.79.
How much does a reusable water bottle cost? About $10.
How long does a reusable water bottle last? Basically forever (or until you lose it).
How much does a water filter cost? How much water will they filter?
A faucet-mounted filter costs about $28 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $33 for a 3-pack. The box says each filter will filter up to 100 gallons (378 liters)
A water filter pitcher costs about $22 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $20 for a 4-pack. The box says each filter lasts for 40 gallons or 4 months
An under-sink filter costs $130 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $60 each. The filter lasts for 500 gallons.
Which option is cheapest over one year (365 days)? Select an answer
Water bottles faucet-mount filter filter pitcher under-sink
filter
The cheapest option saves her $ over a year?
Give your answer to the nearest cent. Pro-rate the costs of
additional filters (so if you only use part of a filter, only count
the corresponding fraction of the filter cost).

The Sandersons are planning to refinance their home. The
outstanding principal on their original loan is $120,000 and was to
amortized in 240 equal monthly installments at an interest rate of
10%/year compounded monthly. The new loan they expect to secure is
to be amortized over the same period at an interest rate of 7%/year
compounded monthly. How much less can they expect to pay over the
life of the loan in interest payments by refinancing the loan at
this time? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Activity 1: How far can a soccer player kick a soccer ball down field? Through the application of a linear function and a quadratic function and ignoring wind and air resistance one can describe the path of a soccer ball. These functions depend on two elements that are within the control of the player: velocity of the kick (v k ) and angle of the kick (?). A skilled high school soccer player can kick a soccer ball at speeds up to 50 to 60 mi/h, while a veteran professional soccer player can kick the soccer ball up to 80 mi/h. Vectors Gravity The vectors identified in the triangle describe the initial velocity of the soccer ball as the combination of a vertical and horizontal velocity. The constant g represents the acceleration of any object due to Earth’s gravitational pull. The value of g near Earth’s surface is about ?32 ft/s2 . v x = v k cos ? & v y = v k sin ?
