1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 5) and (2, 1). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 5) and (2, 1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(1.0) - (5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-4}{4} \)
m = -1


2

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse, right

right, obtuse, acute

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

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.


4

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal length

parallel

equal angle

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


5

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

pairs

division

exponents

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)
