1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, 4). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 2) and (2, 4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(4.0) - (2.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{2}{4} \)
m = \(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

If a = c = 3, b = d = 2, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
6
32
16
21

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 2
a = 6


3

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

5

2

3

4


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.

Solve for b:
b2 + 14b + 45 = 0

58% Answer Correctly
-5 or -9
-6 or -7
8 or -9
6 or 3

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

b2 + 14b + 45 = 0
(b + 5)(b + 9) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (b + 5) or (b + 9) must equal zero:

If (b + 5) = 0, b must equal -5
If (b + 9) = 0, b must equal -9

So the solution is that b = -5 or -9


5

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 19?

71% Answer Correctly
19π
32π
12π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 19π
