Graphs And Relations Practice Quiz! Test - Quiz


What is a graph? The representation of a relation on a quadrangular coordinate plane is called a graph. A relation is any curve graphed on a rectangular coordinate plane and represents a set of ordered pairs. A graph is a configuration amounting to a set of objects in which some objects are somehow‘ related. ’ For this quiz, you will be shown algebraic equations, and it is up to you to determine the answer. Good luck.

    What is the equation for the relationship between x and y as shown in the graph above? 

    Correct Answer
    y=0.125/x, y=1/8x
    Explanation
    pointn2eqn - but the graph here has been LINEARISED where n=1
    When the graph is linear, make sure you observe the x axis values which linearise a NON LINEAR equation.
    This problem is a linearised version of y=k/xn, and the value for 'k' is 1/8 or 0.125

    The line graph above shows a day trip to the beach, where the x axis is the time taken in hours, and the y axis is the distance from home in km. What is the total distance travelled on the day.

    Correct Answer
    400km, 400 km, 400 kilometres, 400kilometres

    My plumber uses a cost equation where C = ax + b, where a is the rate he charges me per hour, and b is the call out fee.He charges me $290 for 6 hours of work, then the next week he returns to do 8 hours of work for $370.If I want him to return to replace a few tap washers - for one hour - how much will he charge?

    Correct Answer
    $90
    Explanation
    this looks like a simequation, or cost equation question and would work that way, but twopoints works better.
    (6, 290) and (8, 370) gives you the equation for the line ... y=50+40x
    then, you can just substitute x = 1 (1 hour) into the equation and you have the answer.
