8 Obtain a condition on the numbers 𝑎, 𝑏, and 𝑐 such that the following system of
equations is consistent. When that condition is satisfied, find all solutions (in terms
of 𝑎, 𝑏, and 𝑐).
𝑥 + 3𝑦 + 𝑧 = 𝑎
−𝑥 − 2𝑦 + 𝑧 = 𝑏
3𝑥 + 7𝑦 − 𝑧 = 𝑐
9 Determine a quadratic function 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐𝑥 2 such that the graph of
𝑦 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐𝑥 2 contains each of the points (−1,6), (2,0), and (3,2).
10 Solve the following system of equations for 𝑥 and 𝑦.
𝑥 2 + 𝑥𝑦 − 𝑦 2 = 1
2𝑥 2 − 𝑥𝑦 + 3𝑦 2 = 13
𝑥 2 + 3𝑥𝑦 + 2𝑦 2 = 0
