    Find the Slope of a line with the points (-4,6) and (1,10)

    • -4/3

    • 4/3

    • 4/5

    • -5/4

    Correct Answer
    A. 4/5
    Explanation
    To find the slope of a line, we use the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of two points on the line. In this case, the coordinates are (-4,6) and (1,10). Plugging these values into the formula, we get (10 - 6) / (1 - (-4)), which simplifies to 4/5. Therefore, the correct answer is 4/5.

    What is the length of c? a = 9 ft, b = 5ft, and c = ?

    • √106 ft

    • 106 ft

    • √196 ft

    • 196 ft

    Correct Answer
    A. √106 ft
    Explanation
    The length of c can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (a and b). In this case, a = 9 ft and b = 5 ft. Thus, c^2 = 9^2 + 5^2 = 81 + 25 = 106. Taking the square root of 106 gives us the length of c, which is approximately √106 ft.

    Solve the equation 3(6 + 5y) = 2(-5 + 4y)

    • Y = -7

    • Y = -4

    • Y = 4

    • Y = 7

    Correct Answer
    A. Y = -4
    Explanation
    To solve the equation, we first distribute the numbers inside the parentheses. This gives us 18 + 15y = -10 + 8y. Next, we combine like terms by subtracting 8y from both sides, which gives us 10y = -28. Finally, we divide both sides by 10 to solve for y, which gives us y = -2.8. However, since the options provided are whole numbers, we round -2.8 to the nearest whole number, which is -3. Therefore, the correct answer is y = -4.

    Solve the equation (2/3)x - 1/6 = (1/2)x + 5/6

    • 2

    • 3

    • 5

    • 6

    Correct Answer
    A. 6
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 6. This is because when solving the equation (2/3)x - 1/6 = (1/2)x + 5/6, we can simplify it by multiplying every term by 6 to eliminate the fractions. This results in 4x - 1 = 3x + 5. By rearranging the equation, we get x = 6.

    What is the perimeter of the figure?

    • 19 ft

    • 14 ft

    • 23 ft

    • 17 ft

    Correct Answer
    A. 19 ft
  • 7. 

    What are the coordinates of the points on the top triangle?  (put a comma between your answers, placing them in order of A, B, C)[e.g. (5,6), (10, 123), (57, 88)]

    Correct Answer
    (-2,4), (2,3), (-1,1)
    (-2, 4), (2, 3), (-1, 1)
    (-2,4),(2,3),(-1,1)
    (-2, 4),(2, 3),(-1, 1)

    What would be the correct expression to represent the are of the circle? π is pi

    • 49 π

    • 7 π

    • 14 π

    • √49 π

    Correct Answer
    A. 49 π
    Explanation
    The correct expression to represent the area of a circle is given by multiplying the square of the radius by pi. In this case, the radius is 7, so the expression becomes 7^2 * π, which simplifies to 49π.

    A dripping faucet wastes 3 cups of water every 24 hours.  How much water is wasted in a week?

    • 504 cups

    • 72 cups

    • 21 cups

    • 168 cups

    Correct Answer
    A. 21 cups
    Explanation
    If a dripping faucet wastes 3 cups of water every 24 hours, then in a week (which consists of 7 days), it will waste 3 cups x 7 days = 21 cups of water.

    25 ft, 15 ft, 375 ft sq
    25,15,375
    25 ft,15 ft, 375 ft
    25ft,15ft,375ft^2
    Explanation
    The length of the pool is 25 ft and the width is 15 ft. The area of the pool is 375 sq ft.
