4. a) Answers may vary, e.g., I prefer x- and
y-intercepts because the equation will not
need to be rearranged.
b) Answers may vary, e.g., I could determine
the x- and y-intercepts of both lines, and then
compare them to see if they are equal.
5. a) 5x – 15
b) –8x + 28
c) –3x + 1
d) 13x – 9
6. a) x = 2
b) x = –17
c) x = 2
d) x = –6
7. The graphs will never be identical because they
have different y-intercepts. They will be parallel
only when m1 = m2 because the slopes are the
same for parallel lines.
The two lines are parallel because they have
the same slope but different y-intercepts.
If students have difficulty with the questions on the Diagnostic Test, it may be necessary
to review the following topics:
• expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions
• graphing a linear relation, given the x- and y-intercepts
• graphing a linear equation, given the y-intercept and the slope
• solving linear equations

4. a) Isolate y in both equations in the system
4y + 7x = 19 and 5x – 2y = 13.
b) Use graphing technology to solve the system,
expressing your answers to the nearest
hundredth.
5. A transversal crosses
two parallel lines,
creating angles that
measure a and b as
shown. Determine a
and b if tripling the
angle measure a creates the same measure as
doubling the angle measure b.

shown?
7. Jamal wants to make a 300 g serving of kiwi
and blueberries that contains 75 mg of
vitamin C. He knows that 1 g of kiwi contains
0.7 mg of vitamin C, and each gram of
blueberries contains 0.1 mg of vitamin C. Use
any appropriate strategy to determine how much
of each type of fruit Jamal should include.
8. a) Solve the system 3x + 2y = –4 and

linear system.
c) Which strategy is more efficient for solving
this system? Explain in terms of both
strategies.

8. a), b) (1, –3.5)
c) Elimination is more efficient because the two
equations can simply be added together. For
substitution, isolating either variable involves
dividing both sides of one of the equations by
a number.
