The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -9). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?
| y = -3x - 3 | |
| y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1 | |
| y = x - 3 | |
| y = -2x - 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 -3. 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, -9) so the slope becomes:
m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-9.0) - (3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:
y = -3x - 3
When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).
acute, obtuse |
|
vertical, supplementary |
|
obtuse, acute |
|
supplementary, vertical |
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).
A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.
quadrilateral |
|
triangle |
|
trapezoid |
|
rhombus |
A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.
On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:
radius |
|
circumference |
|
chord |
|
diameter |
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 formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?
2lw x 2wh + 2lh |
|
h2 x l2 x w2 |
|
h x l x w |
|
lw x wh + lh |
A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.
