Example 2 Multiple Choice Practice You can buy a skating park membership for a fee of $100. Each park visit costs members $8 and nonmembers $12. After how many visits will the total costs for a member and a nonmember be equal? 8 16 25 24 SOLUTION STEP 1 Use verbal models to write equations representing each option.
4
Example 2 Multiple Choice Practice Equation 1 (members) y = 8x8x 100 + Equation 2 (nonmembers) y = 12x
5
Example 2 Multiple Choice Practice STEP 2 Graph the equations and in only the first quadrant because negative values of x and y do not make sense in this situation. y = 8x8x 100 + y = 12x STEP 3 ( ).). 25, 300 Estimate the point of intersection. The graphs appear to intersect at
6
Example 2 Multiple Choice Practice ANSWER The correct answer is D. After 25 visits, the total costs are equal. STEP 4 Check the solution. 300 100 = ( 258 ) + Equation 1 checks. 300 = ( 2512 ) Equation 2 checks.

Guided Practice for Examples 1 and 2 Solve the linear system by graphing. Then check the solution. 1. y = 3 x – + y = 7 x– ANSWER 2 – ( 5,5, )
8
Guided Practice for Examples 1 and 2 Solve the linear system by graphing. Then check the solution. 2. yx = 2 – 2y2y6x6x = 8 – ANSWER 1 – ( 1,1, )
9
Guided Practice for Examples 1 and 2 Solve the linear system by graphing. Then check the solution. 3. y = 5 x– 3x3x + 3 y= –– ANSWER 6 – 1,1, )( –
