1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, -1). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-3
1
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
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, -7) and (2, -1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-1.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{6}{4} \)
m = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

factoring

squaring

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 7 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
180π
486π
567π
96π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 7)
v = 567π


5

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

trapezoid

rhombus

quadrilateral

triangle


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.
