A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?
all of these |
|
x-axis |
|
y-axis |
|
origin |
The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.
Find the value of c:
-7c + y = -3
-c - 8y = -1
| \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{5}{16}\) | |
| 3\(\frac{9}{17}\) | |
| \(\frac{25}{57}\) |
You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of y:
-7c + y = -3
y = -3 + 7c
then substitute the result (-3 - -7c) into the second equation:
-c - 8(-3 + 7c) = -1
-c + (-8 x -3) + (-8 x 7c) = -1
-c + 24 - 56c = -1
-c - 56c = -1 - 24
-57c = -25
c = \( \frac{-25}{-57} \)
c = \(\frac{25}{57}\)
The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -10). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?
| y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1 | |
| y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 3 | |
| y = -x - 4 | |
| y = -3x - 4 |
The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -4. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -10) so the slope becomes:
m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-10.0) - (2.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:
y = -3x - 4
The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 3, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 2. What is the surface area?
| 22 | |
| 182 | |
| 38 | |
| 136 |
The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):
sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 1 x 2) + (2 x 2 x 3) + (2 x 1 x 3)
sa = (4) + (12) + (6)
sa = 22
If angle a = 61° and angle b = 58° what is the length of angle d?
| 145° | |
| 119° | |
| 122° | |
| 143° |
An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:
d° = b° + c°
To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 61° - 58° = 61°
So, d° = 58° + 61° = 119°
A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:
a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 61° = 119°
