Noah's cousin is exactly 7 years younger than Noah. Let \(M\) represent Noah's cousin's age in months and \(N\) represent Noah's age in years. 

1. If Noah is 15 years old, how old is his cousin, in months?
2. When Noah's cousin is 132 months old, how old is Noah, in years?
3. Write a function that gives the age of Noah's cousin in months, as a function of Noah's age in years.
4. Write the inverse of the function you wrote. What are the input and the output of this inverse function?

Each equation represents a function. For each, find the inverse function. 

1. \(c=w+3\)
2. \(y=x-2\)
3. \(y=5x\)
4. \(w=\frac{d}{7}\)

The number of years, \(y\), is a function of the number of months, \(m\). The number of months, \(m\), is also a function of the number of years, \(y\).  

1. Write two equations, one to represent each function.
2. Explain why the two functions are inverses.  

Sketch a graph to represent each quantity described as a function of time. Be sure to label the vertical axis.

Swing: the height of your feet above ground while swinging on a swing at a playground    

Slide: the height of your shoes above ground as you walk to a slide, go up a ladder, and then go down a slide

Merry-go-round: your distance from the center of a merry-go-round as you ride the merry-go-round

Merry-go-round, again: your distance from your friend, who is standing next to the merry-go-round as you go around

Lin charges \$5.50 per hour to babysit. The amount of money earned, in dollars, is a function of the number of hours that she babysits.

Which of the following inputs is impossible for this function?

1. Describe the instructions in words so that they can be followed by someone using the pressure cooker.
2. Graph function \(f\).

   

The absolute value function \(Q(x)=|x|\) gives the distance from 0 of the point \(x\) on the number line.

\(Q\) can also be defined using piecewise notation: \(Q(x)=\begin{cases} x,& x\geq 0 \\ \text-x,& x < 0 \end{cases} \)

Determine if each point is on the graph of \(Q\). For each point that you believe is not on the graph of \(Q\), change the output coordinate so that the point is on the graph of \(Q\).

1. \((\text- 3, 3)\)
2. \((0,0)\)
3. \((\text-5, \text-5)\)
4. \((\text-72, 72)\)
5. \((\frac45,\text- \frac45)\)

Is triangle \(EJH\) congruent to triangle \(EIH\)?
Explain your reasoning.
