1. QuestionMultiple choice

For the line y=2x+1y=2x+1, what is y when x = 4?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 9.

  1. Identify the coordinate information: Determine the points, quadrant, slope, distance, midpoint, transformation, or geometric model involved.
  2. Apply the coordinate rule: Substitute x = 4: y = 2(4) + 1 = 9.
  3. Check the position or measurement: The correct choice is 9.

Substitute x = 4: y = 2(4) + 1 = 9.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the x-intercept of y=3x−6y=3x-6?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 2.

  1. Identify the coordinate information: Determine the points, quadrant, slope, distance, midpoint, transformation, or geometric model involved.
  2. Apply the coordinate rule: Set y = 0: 3x - 6 = 0, so x = 2.
  3. Check the position or measurement: The correct choice is 2.

Set y = 0: 3x - 6 = 0, so x = 2.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

A line has slope -1 and passes through (2, 5). What is its y-intercept?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 7.

  1. Identify the coordinate information: Determine the points, quadrant, slope, distance, midpoint, transformation, or geometric model involved.
  2. Apply the coordinate rule: Use y = -x + b and substitute (2, 5): 5 = -2 + b, so b = 7.
  3. Check the position or measurement: The correct choice is 7.

Use y = -x + b and substitute (2, 5): 5 = -2 + b, so b = 7.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the equation through (-1, 2) and (3, 10)?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is y=2x+4y=2x+4.

  1. Identify the coordinate information: Determine the points, quadrant, slope, distance, midpoint, transformation, or geometric model involved.
  2. Apply the coordinate rule: The slope is 8/4 = 2. Using (-1, 2) gives 2 = -2 + b, so b = 4.
  3. Check the position or measurement: The correct choice is y=2x+4y=2x+4.

The slope is 8/4 = 2. Using (-1, 2) gives 2 = -2 + b, so b = 4.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

Are (0, 1), (2, 5), and (4, 9) collinear?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is Yes, because the slope between consecutive pairs is 2..

  1. Identify the coordinate information: Determine the points, quadrant, slope, distance, midpoint, transformation, or geometric model involved.
  2. Apply the coordinate rule: The slopes are (5 - 1)/(2 - 0) = 2 and (9 - 5)/(4 - 2) = 2.
  3. Check the position or measurement: The correct choice is Yes, because the slope between consecutive pairs is 2..

The slopes are (5 - 1)/(2 - 0) = 2 and (9 - 5)/(4 - 2) = 2.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the perimeter of the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (3, 0), and (3, 4)?
