Writing: A cafe sells a regular cup of coffee for $1 and a large cup for $1.50. Melissa and her friend buy 5 cups of coffee and spend a total of $6. Explain how to write and solve a system of equations to find the number of large cups of coffee they bought. Use the canvas to explain. You are not required to solve the system of questions, but your response should include the system and a narrative explaining how you set it up.

Review Lesson 2-1: Use the vertical line test to determine whether each graph represents a function. Categorize each graph appropriately.

  • Is a function (passes the vertical line test)
  • Is not a function (fails the vertical line test)

Vocabulary Review: Group the equations that are in standard form.

  • Standard Form

Use Your Vocabulary: Pair up x- and y-values to form two different solutions of the equation.

  • x = 0
  • x = 1
  • y = -2
  • y = -7
  • y = 3

Use Your Vocabulary: Consider the system below. Categorize each statement regarding the system as true or false.

  • The system has a unique solution.
  • The system has infinitely many solutions.
  • The system has no solution.
  • The solution is (0, 0).
  • The solution of a system can be found by graphing the equations of the system.
  • True
  • False
