NOTE: This is the minimum number of questions you should do to develop a basic understanding of the concepts in
this unit. If you have trouble doing these, go to your teacher for extra help. Then try some of the unassigned
questions. The unassigned questions may also be used for extra practise before the unit test.
THE ASSIGNED MARK (5%): Since the answers to all the questions are at the back of the textbook, the mark
assigned to the assignments will be based on the quality of the work : handed in on time, complete, neat, organized,
etc.
Math 10C – Linear Systems
The Problem: Bill knows that each pen costs $1 more than twice the price of a small notepad. He also knows that
he can buy four pads and two pens for $10. How could he find the price of each pad and each pen?
Take the next few minutes to think about this problem. Your
task is not to find a numerical solution to the problem now (you
will do that at the end of the unit). Your task is to put thought
into what facts, skills, formulas, and procedures you will need
to solve the problem.
Make a list of those concepts and skills you think you need to
solve this problem.
