1.   Hector needs to build a rectangular pen for his dog. He decides to use an area of 50 m2 in his backyard for the pen. Using l for the length and w for the width, express the area in terms of the two variables.
    A. w = 50 – w B.
    C. l + w = 50 D. lw = 50
    Hint

  2.   Hector needs to build a rectangular pen for his dog. He decides to use an area of 50 m2 in his backyard for the pen. Using w for the width, find a function f(w) that represents the perimeter of the fence in terms of w.
    A. lw = 50 B.
    C. l = 50 – w D. l + w = 50
    Hint

  3.   Find the x-intercepts of the graph of
f(x) = x2 – 2x – 3.
    A. –1, 4 B. 1, –3
    C. 1, –4 D. –1, 3
    Hint

  4.   Find the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x) = –x2 + 4x + 12.
    A. 2, 16 B. –2, 6
    C. –2, 16 D. –2, –6
    Hint
