The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -5) and (2, 5). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?
| y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 4 | |
| y = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 2 | |
| y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0 | |
| y = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 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 0. 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, -5) and (2, 5) so the slope becomes:
m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(5.0) - (-5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:
y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0
Simplify (3a)(5ab) + (6a2)(6b).

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.
(3a)(5ab) + (6a2)(6b)
(3 x 5)(a x a x b) + (6 x 6)(a2 x b)
(15)(a1+1 x b) + (36)(a2b)
15a2b + 36a2b
51a2b
If angle a = 41° and angle b = 39° what is the length of angle d?
| 112° | |
| 142° | |
| 139° | |
| 117° |
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° - 41° - 39° = 100°
So, d° = 39° + 100° = 139°
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° - 41° = 139°
On this circle, line segment CD is the:
diameter |
|
circumference |
|
chord |
|
radius |
A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 4, b = 4, c = 6, d = 9, and h = 3. What is the area?
| 19\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 22\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 10 | |
| 5 |
The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:
a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(4 + 9)(3)
a = ½(13)(3)
a = ½(39) = \( \frac{39}{2} \)
a = 19\(\frac{1}{2}\)
