Ma18 Long Test # 1 90 Minutes May 20, 2015 INSTRUCTIONS. Show Your Complete Solutions To Each Problem. Box

This document contains the instructions and problems for a 90 minute long test involving solving equations, finding solution sets, using properties of functions like the greatest integer function, and proving inequalities. The test contains 6 problems of varying point values testing skills like finding the other endpoint of a line segment given one endpoint and the midpoint, finding solution sets of absolute value and greatest integer functions, and proving an inequality relationship between positive values. It also contains a geometry problem asking to find the third vertex of a triangle given information about two vertices and the point where medians meet.

INSTRUCTIONS. Show your complete solutions to each problem. Box
answer for non-proving questions.
1. [10 pts.] One endpoint of a line segment is (8,1) and its midpoint is
(3,7). Find the other endpoint.
2. [15 pts.] Find the solution set of:
|x2015| x+2015 x
3. [15 pts.] The function

g ( x ) = x

is called the greatest integer

function.
The function is defined such that

a rounds down a to the nearest

integer.
For example:

5.3 =5, 7.6 =7, 10.99 =10, 5 =5 .

Find the solution set of:


x 2x +1 =2
(Hint:

x =c if c x <c +1 where c is an integer.)

4. [20 pts.] Find the solution set of:


3 x +2
4<
9
5

5. [20 pts.] Find the solution set of:


5|65 x|+| x2|=32 x+3
6. [10 pts.] A median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to
the midpoint of the opposing side. If two vertices of a triangle at (3,6)
and (5,-2). Find the third vertex of the triangle if the medians meet at
(2,0).
7. [10 pts.] Use the principles of Chapter 1.1 to prove that for a,b,c >0,
6 abc bc ( b+c ) +ac ( a+c ) +ab (a+b)
