writing  your  final  answer.   𝑦 = −0.20𝑥 ! + 80  and  𝑦 = 0.10𝑥 ! + 𝑥 + 40  
  −0.20𝑥 ! + 80 = 0.10𝑥 ! + 𝑥 + 40

𝑦-­‐intercept,  let  𝑥 = 0   !
substituting  𝑥 = 10  to  either  equation  
𝑦 = 0 ! − 5 0 + 8 = 8

3. A  
18. C  
𝑏 ! − 4𝑎𝑐 = −5 ! − 4 1 8 = −7  which  is  less  than  0;  
36𝑥 ! − 360𝑥 + 49𝑦 ! + 490𝑦 + 361 = 0  
therefore  it  has  no  𝑥 -­‐intercept  
𝑏 ! − 4𝑎𝑐 = 0! − 4 36 49 = −7,644  which  is  less  than  0,    
OR,  computing  for  𝑥 -­‐intercept  by  letting  𝑦 = 0  results  to  x  as  an

36𝑥 ! − 360𝑥 + 49𝑦 ! + 490𝑦 + 361 = 0  
4. C  
36𝑥 ! − 360𝑥 + 49𝑦 ! + 490𝑦 = −361  
𝑏 ! − 4𝑎𝑐 = 0! − 4 1 1 = −4  which  is  less  than  0,    
36 𝑥 ! − 10𝑥 + 49 𝑦 ! + 10𝑦 = −361  
𝑏 = 0, 𝑎𝑛𝑑  𝑎 = 𝑐;  therefore,  the  graph  is  a  circle   36 𝑥 ! − 10𝑥 + 25 + 49 𝑦 ! + 10𝑦 + 25 = −361 + 25 ∙ 36 + (25 ∙ 49)

8. A   19. B  
9. B   The  major  axis  is  parallel  to  the  𝑥 -­‐axis  since  the  larger  value  (49  
Since  the  variable  𝑦  is  the  one  raised  to  2,  the  parabola  opens  either   against  36)  is  associated  with  the  variable  𝑥 .  If  the  major  axis  is  
towards  the  left  of  the  right.  Here,  we  cannot  just  look  at  the  sigh  of  𝑦 ! .   parallel  to  the  𝑥 -­‐axis

𝑝 = ;  𝑝  being  positive  means  that  the  parabola  opens  to  the   22. C

right.   𝑝! = 2𝑥 + 36,  when  𝑥 = 0  then  𝑝! = 2 0 + 36 = 36  
10. A   𝑝 = 36 = 6  
𝑏 ! − 4𝑎𝑐 = 0! − 4 0 1 = 0  ,  therefore,  the  graph  is  a   23. A

14. B   𝑏 = 0, 𝑎𝑛𝑑  𝑎 = 𝑐;  therefore,  the  graph  is  a  circle  
𝑑 = 0   𝑥 ! + 𝑦 ! + 12𝑥 − 12𝑦 − 16 = 0  
0 = 200 − 0.50𝑝!   (𝑥 ! + 12𝑥) + (𝑦 ! − 12) = 16  
0.50𝑝! = 200   (𝑥 ! + 12𝑥 + 36) + 𝑦 ! − 12 + 36 = 16 + (36 ∙ 1) + (36 ∙ 1)  
0.50𝑝! = 200   (𝑥 ! + 12𝑥 + 36) + 𝑦 ! − 12 + 36 = 88
