Solve the equation y2 for X in terms of y. x 2 Solution X xy2 - 2y2 2 y xy X 12. How many roots does the equation y x 6 -X have Solution -A I V -A X2 X - 6 0 x-3 x 2 0 X 3 X -2 Check X 3 5 9 -3 does not check Check X -2 5 4 2 does check There is one root. 8. Inequalities The following principles are important in solving problems dealing with inequalities. 1. For all real values ofp q and r ifp q then p r q r. 2. For all real values ofp q r r 0 ifp q thenpr qr for values of r 0 andpr qr for values of r 0. 3. If x a then -a X a. 4. The sum of the lengths of two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. 5. If two sides of a triangle have unequal measure the angles opposite have unequal measure and the angle with greater measure lies opposite the longer side and conversely. In solving quadratic inequalities or trigonometric inequalities a graphic approach is often desirable. ARCO SAT II Math arco 36 Part III Illustrative Problems 1.
