O7n. e indicator of a declining economy is a continued decline in birth rates. In 2010, birth rates in Europe were at an all-time low, with the average number of children that a woman has in her lifetime at well below two. In the figure above, f(t) represents birth rates for Portugal between 1960 and 2010, and g(t) represents birth rates in Slovakia for the same time period. For which value(s) of t is f(t) > g(t)? 1. 1960 < t < 1980 only 2. 1980 < t < 2000 only 3. 1960 < t < 1980 and 1990 < t < 2000 4. 1960 < t < 1980 and 2000 < t < 2010T8h.e blue whale is the largest creature in the world and has been found in every ocean in the world. A marine biologist surveyed the blue whale population in Monterey Bay, off the coast of California, every three years between 1995 and 2010. The figure above shows her results. If w is the number of blue whales present in Monterey Bay and t is the number of years since the study began in 1995, which of the following equations best represents the blue whale population of Monterey Bay? 1. w = 100 + 2t 2. 3. 4.T9h.e figure above shows the straight-line depreciation of a laptop computer over the first five years of its use. According to the figure, what is the average rate of change in dollars per year of the value of the computer over the five-year period? 1. −1,100 2. −220 3. −100 4. 100 1W0.hat is the coefficient of x 2 when is multiplied by ? 1. −4 2. −2 3. 2 4. 4 1T1h.e graph above could represent which of the following equations? 1. −6x − 4y = 5 2. −6x − 4y = −5 3. −6x + 4y = 5 4. −6x + 4y = −51I2f.the system of linear equations above has no solution, and k is a constant, what is the value of k? 1. 2. 3. 3 4. 4 1I3n. Delray Beach, Florida, you can take a luxury golf cart ride around downtown. The driver charges $4 for the first mile, plus $1.50 for each additional mile.

Suppose a town has a treatment plant but decides to build a second, more efficient facility. The new treatment plant can filter the water in the reservoir four times as quickly as the older facility. Working together, the two facilities can filter all the water in the reservoir in 72 hours. The equation above represents the scenario. Which of the following describes what the term represents? 1. The portion of the water the older treatment plant can filter in 1 hour 2. The time it takes the older treatment plant to filter the water in the reservoir 3. The time it takes the older treatment plant to filter of the water in the reservoir4. The portion of the water the new treatment plant can filter in 4 hours 2. 1. Directions For questions 16–20, enter your responses into the appropriate grid on your answer sheet, in accordance with the following: 1. You will receive credit only if the circles are filled in correctly, but you may write your answers in the boxes above each grid to help you fill in the circles accurately. 2. Don't mark more than one circle per column. 3. None of the questions with grid-in responses will have a negative solution. 4. Only grid in a single answer, even if there is more than one correct answer to a given question. 5. A mixed number must be gridded as a decimal or an improper fraction. For example, you would grid as 7.5 or 15/2. (Were you to grid it as , this response would be interpreted as .) 6. A decimal that has more digits than there are places on the grid may be either rounded or truncated, but every column in the grid must be filled in order to receive credit.I2f. , what is the value of x + 2y? I3f. (a, b) is a point in the solution region for the system of inequalities shown above and a = 6, what is the minimum possible value for b?
