    A. B.
    C. D.
    Hint

  2.   Use Cramer's rule to solve the system of equations.


    A. (-0.4, -0.2) B. (0.011, 0.0055)
    C. (0.2, 0.4) D. (0.4, 0.2)
    Hint

  3.   Solve the system –2x – 4y = 7, 3x + 5y = 9.
    A. B.
    C. D. (71, –39)
    Hint

  4.   Which of the following cannot be true concerning Cramer's Rule for two variables?
    A. B.
    C. D.
    Hint

  5.   Which method of finding solutions would work best to find the solutions to the system 12.4x – 3.66y = 12.19, 3.9x + 6.17y = 19.28, and why?
    A. elimination, because 6.17 is a factor of 3.66
    B. Cramer's Rule, because there are fewer calculations.
    C. Cramer's Rule, because none of the other methods will correctly solve the problem
    D. elimination, because Cramer's Rule doesn't apply to this problem
    Hint
