1. Problem Description

The problem is divided into three exercises.
Exercise 1 involves points in an orthonormal coordinate system and asks to find coordinates of vectors, equations of lines, and relationships between points and lines.
Exercise 2 concerns a linear function ff such that f(7)=14f(7) = 14 and asks to find the expression for f(x)f(x), find the antecedent of 21 by ff and draw the graph of the function ff.
Exercise 3 deals with an affine function gg such that g(0)=3g(0) = 3 and g(2)=7g(2) = 7 and asks to find the expression for g(x)g(x), calculate g(1)g(1) and g(3)g(3), find the antecedent of 21 by gg and draw the graph of the function gg.

2. Solution Steps

Exercise 1:

1. Plot the points A(1,3), B(2,5), and C(-2,1) on a coordinate plane.

2. Determine the coordinates of vector $AB$:

AB=(xBxA,yByA)=(21,53)=(1,2)AB = (x_B - x_A, y_B - y_A) = (2-1, 5-3) = (1, 2)

3. Calculate the distance $AB$:

AB=(xBxA)2+(yByA)2=(21)2+(53)2=12+22=1+4=5AB = \sqrt{(x_B - x_A)^2 + (y_B - y_A)^2} = \sqrt{(2-1)^2 + (5-3)^2} = \sqrt{1^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{1 + 4} = \sqrt{5}

4. Determine the coordinates of the midpoint $I$ of segment $[AB]$:

I=(xA+xB2,yA+yB2)=(1+22,3+52)=(32,82)=(32,4)I = (\frac{x_A + x_B}{2}, \frac{y_A + y_B}{2}) = (\frac{1+2}{2}, \frac{3+5}{2}) = (\frac{3}{2}, \frac{8}{2}) = (\frac{3}{2}, 4)

5. Show that the reduced equation of line $(AB)$ is $y = 2x + 1$.

The slope of line (AB)(AB) is m=yByAxBxA=5321=21=2m = \frac{y_B - y_A}{x_B - x_A} = \frac{5-3}{2-1} = \frac{2}{1} = 2.
The equation of line (AB)(AB) is y=2x+by = 2x + b.
Substituting the coordinates of point A(1,3)A(1,3) into the equation:
3=2(1)+b3 = 2(1) + b
3=2+b3 = 2 + b
b=1b = 1
So the equation of line (AB)(AB) is y=2x+1y = 2x + 1.

6. Does point $C(-2, 1)$ belong to line $(AB)$?

Substituting the coordinates of point CC into the equation of line (AB)(AB):
1=2(2)+11 = 2(-2) + 1
1=4+11 = -4 + 1
1=31 = -3
Since the equation is not satisfied, point CC does not belong to line (AB)(AB).

7. Determine the reduced equation of line $(D)$ perpendicular to $(AB)$ and passing through point $C$.

The slope of line (AB)(AB) is

2. The slope of a line perpendicular to $(AB)$ is $-\frac{1}{2}$.

The equation of line (D)(D) is y=12x+by = -\frac{1}{2}x + b.
Substituting the coordinates of point C(2,1)C(-2, 1) into the equation:
1=12(2)+b1 = -\frac{1}{2}(-2) + b
1=1+b1 = 1 + b
b=0b = 0
So the equation of line (D)(D) is y=12xy = -\frac{1}{2}x.

8. Determine the reduced equation of line $(\Delta)$ parallel to $(AB)$ and passing through point $E(2, 5)$.

The slope of line (AB)(AB) is

2. The slope of a line parallel to $(AB)$ is also

2. The equation of line $(\Delta)$ is $y = 2x + b$.

Substituting the coordinates of point E(2,5)E(2, 5) into the equation:
5=2(2)+b5 = 2(2) + b
5=4+b5 = 4 + b
b=1b = 1
So the equation of line (Δ)(\Delta) is y=2x+1y = 2x + 1.
Exercise 2:

1. Determine the expression of $f(x)$ given that $f(7) = 14$ and $f$ is a linear function.

Since ff is a linear function, f(x)=axf(x) = ax.
f(7)=a(7)=14f(7) = a(7) = 14
a=147=2a = \frac{14}{7} = 2
So, f(x)=2xf(x) = 2x.

2. What is the number $a$ such that $f(a) = 21$?

f(a)=2a=21f(a) = 2a = 21
a=212=10.5a = \frac{21}{2} = 10.5

3. Draw the line $(D)$ representing the graph of the function $f$.

Since f(x)=2xf(x) = 2x, the line passes through the origin (0,0)(0, 0) and the point (1,2)(1, 2).
Exercise 3:

1. Determine the expression of $g(x)$ given that $g(0) = 3$ and $g(2) = 7$ and $g$ is an affine function.

Since gg is an affine function, g(x)=ax+bg(x) = ax + b.
g(0)=a(0)+b=3g(0) = a(0) + b = 3, so b=3b = 3.
g(2)=a(2)+3=7g(2) = a(2) + 3 = 7
2a=42a = 4
a=2a = 2
So, g(x)=2x+3g(x) = 2x + 3.

2. Calculate $g(1)$ and $g(3)$:

g(1)=2(1)+3=2+3=5g(1) = 2(1) + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5
g(3)=2(3)+3=6+3=9g(3) = 2(3) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

3. What is the number $a$ such that $g(a) = 21$?

g(a)=2a+3=21g(a) = 2a + 3 = 21
2a=182a = 18
a=9a = 9

4. Draw the line $(\Delta)$ representing the graph of the function $g$.

Since g(x)=2x+3g(x) = 2x + 3, the line passes through the points (0,3)(0, 3) and (1,5)(1, 5).

3. Final Answer

1. Plot the points A(1,3), B(2,5), and C(-2,1).

2. $AB = (1, 2)$
