1

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

y-axis

x-axis

all of these

origin


Solution

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.


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -3) and (2, 7). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-3
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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, -3) and (2, 7) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(7.0) - (-3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

Simplify (6a)(7ab) + (8a2)(6b).

65% Answer Correctly
6ab2
182ab2
90a2b
90ab2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(6a)(7ab) + (8a2)(6b)
(6 x 7)(a x a x b) + (8 x 6)(a2 x b)
(42)(a1+1 x b) + (48)(a2b)
42a2b + 48a2b
90a2b


4

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?

70% Answer Correctly
25π
16π
36π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -3) and (2, 5). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = 3x + 4
y = -2x + 0
y = 2x + 1
y = 3x + 3

Solution

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 1. 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, -3) and (2, 5) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(5.0) - (-3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{8}{4} \)
m = 2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = 2x + 1
