Chapter 1 Review: Pages 8-19

This document provides a review of chapter 1 which covers topics like translating sentences to equations, graphing lines, solving linear systems using substitution and elimination, and applying linear systems to solve word problems. There are 17 multi-part questions reviewing these concepts. The chapter wrap-up problem asks students to determine the cheapest rental car option for a family trip based on cost per km and total distance traveled, considering both price and other factors.

Chapter Problem Wrap-Up

The Clarke family will be leaving soon for Victoria. Mrs. Clarke suggests that
they rent a car that costs $180 for the week plus 41¢/km. Mr. Clarke has found
a car for $275 for the week plus 21¢/km.
a) Use your skills with linear systems to find the number of kilometres
driven for which the cost will be the same for either of these cars.
b) The Clarkes want to go to Parksville and to visit an aunt who lives in
Crofton. They would also like to go to Tofino. These trips will be a total
of 628 km. Write a note to explain which of the two cars would cost less.
c) Look back at question 17 in Section 1.2, question 16 in Section 1.3, and
question 17 in Section 1.4. Of the cars that the Clarkes have considered,
which is the cheapest?
d) What other factors should they consider when choosing the car?
