Epress the solution set in interval notation. 1) (- 2)( + ) > 0 1) ) ) ) ( + 2)( - 1)( - 6) > 0 3) Solve the rational inequalit and graph the solution set on a real number line. Epress the solution set in interval notation. ) < 0 ) ) ( - 1)(3 - ) ( - 2)2 0 ) Solve the inequalit. 12 6) - > + 1 6) Solve the problem. 7) If varies directl as the square of, and = 0 when = 8, find when = 20. 7) 8) If the resistance in an electrical circuit is held constant, the amount of current flowing through the circuit is directl proportional to the amount of voltage applied to the circuit. When 3 volts are applied to a circuit, 7 milliamperes of current flow through the circuit. Find the new current if the voltage is increased to 11 volts. 8) 9) varies inversel as 2, and = when = 12. Find when =. 9) 1

2 Solve. ) If the voltage, V, in an electric circuit is held constant, the current, I, is inversel proportional to the resistance, R. If the current is 90 milliamperes when the resistance is ohms, find the current when the resistance is 12 ohms. ) Write an equation that epresses the relationship. Use k for the constant of proportionalit. 11) q varies jointl as r and s and inversel as the square root of a. 11) Write an equation that epresses the relationship. Use k as the constant of variation. 12) The weight of a bod above the surface of the earth is inversel proportional to the square of its distance from the center of the earth. What is the effect on the weight when the distance is multiplied b? 12) Find the variation equation for the variation statement. 13) c varies directl as a and inversel as b; c = when a = 8 and b = 8 13) Solve the problem. 1) f varies jointl as q2 and h, and f = 6 when q = and h = 2. Find f when q = 3 and h =. 1) 1) The amount of paint needed to cover the walls of a room varies jointl as the perimeter of the room and the height of the wall. If a room with a perimeter of 70 feet and 8-foot walls requires.6 quarts of paint, find the amount of paint needed to cover the walls of a room with a perimeter of feet and 6-foot walls. 1) Approimate the number using a calculator. Round our answer to three decimal places. 16) 2. 16) Solve the problem. 17) A cit is growing at the rate of 0.6% annuall. If there were,80,000 residents in the cit in 1993, find how man (to the nearest ten-thousand) are living in that cit in Use =,80,000(2.7)0.006t. 17) Graph the function b making a table of coordinates. 18) f() = 3 18)

Round our answer to three decimal places. 20) e1.6 20) Solve the problem. 21) The size of the bear population at a national park increases at the rate of.2% per ear. If the size of the current population is 138, find how man bears there should be in 3 ears. Use the function f() = 138e0.02t and round to the nearest whole number. 21) Use the compound interest formulas A = P1 + r n nt and A = Pe rt to solve. 22) Find the accumulated value of an investment of $800 at % compounded quarterl for ears. 22) 23) Find the accumulated value of an investment of $7000 at 7% compounded continuousl for 6 ears. 23) Write the equation in its equivalent eponential form. 2) log 3 9 = 2 2) 2) log b 23 = 2) Write the equation in its equivalent logarithmic form. 26) 63 = 26) 27) = 00 27) Evaluate the epression without using a calculator. 28) log ) 29) log ) 3
