Homework 3 1. Find five pairs of numbers (a,b) which are solutions to ab = 70. (Note that

you can use negative numbers and fractions.)

2. Write down five number pairs that are solutions to ab = 95. (Note that you can use negative numbers and fractions.)

3. Write down five number pairs that are solutions to ab = 0. (Note that you can use negative numbers and fractions.)

4. How is the answer to Question 3 different from the first two?

5. Write five number pairs (g, h) to solve (g – 3)(h + 2) = 95. (Note that you can use negative numbers and fractions.)

6. Write five number pairs (g, h) to solve (g – 3)(h+ 2) = 0. (Note that you can use negative numbers and fractions.)

7. Was Question 5 or Question 6 easier for you? Why?
