1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 9) and (2, -3). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-3
1
-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, 9) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (9.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 8. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
98π
64π
18π
180π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(82 x 1)
v = 64π


3

Solve for x:
x2 - 10x + 24 = 0

57% Answer Correctly
-1 or -9
4 or 6
-1 or -6
9 or -5

Solution

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

x2 - 10x + 24 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 6) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (x - 4) or (x - 6) must equal zero:

If (x - 4) = 0, x must equal 4
If (x - 6) = 0, x must equal 6

So the solution is that x = 4 or 6


4

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

49% Answer Correctly

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
28
4
10
70

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 1 x 1
v = 4
