Section 2: Find the Equation for The Parabola (No Calculator)
 What is the equation for the parabola that passes through the ordered pairs
(-1, 12), (0, 3), and (3, 0) ?
 What is the equation for the parabola that passes through the ordered pairs
(-1, 7), (1, -1), and
(2, -14) ?
Section 3: Solve the System of Equation Using any Method
If there are no solutions or infinitely many solutions you must say which.
 x – y = 11
2x + y = 19
 5x + 4y = -30
3x – 9y = -18
 3x – 2y = 2
5x – 5y = 10
 2x + 8y = 6
-5x -20y = -15
 -14 = -20y – 7x
10y + 4 = 2x
Section 4: Solve Using the Substitution Method (You will not receive full credit if you don’t show substitution method
work.)
 y = 30
12x – 2y = 0
 x = -4
-3x – 2y = 0
 3x – y = 8
2x + 5y = 28
Section 5: Elimination Method (Show Your Work)
 3x + y = 13
x – 5y = 15
 6x – y = 14
2x + y = 12
 3x – 4y = 22
2x + 5y = 7
