Example Question #1 : Graphing An Ordered Pair

Which of the following ordered pairs is in Quadrant III?

Possible Answers:

(-5,2)

(-5,-2)

(5,2)

(5,-2)

(-5,0)

Correct answer:

(-5,-2)

Explanation:

Example Question #21 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair

Which quadrant or axis includes the point (-1,3) ?

Possible Answers:

Quadrant III

Quadrant II

The -axis

Quadrant I

Quadrant IV

Correct answer:

Quadrant II

Explanation:

The ordered pair (-1,3) has a negative -coordinate and a positive -coordinate. By definition, all ordered pairs with negative -coordinates and a positive -coordinates exist in Quadrant II.

Example Question #6 : Graphing An Ordered Pair

Which quadrant or axis includes the point (0,7) ?

Possible Answers:

The -axis

Quadrant III

The -axis

Quadrant II

Quadrant I

Correct answer:

The -axis

Explanation:

The ordered pair (0,7) has a zero -coordinate and a nonzero -coordinate. By definition, all ordered pairs with zero -coordinates and nonzero -coordinates is on the -axis.

Example Question #101 : Graphing

Which of the following ordered pairs is in Quadrant I?

Possible Answers:

(-2,-7)

(2,7)

(-2,7)

(2,-7)

None of these coordinates

Correct answer:

(2,7)

Explanation:

By definition, all ordered pairs with positive -coordinates and positive -coordinates are in Quadrant I. Therefore, the only ordered pair in this quadrant is (2,7) .

Example Question #1 : Graphing A Point

The point (3,k) lies on a line with slope m=-2 that passes through the point (2,5) .

What is ?

Possible Answers:

cannot be determined

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We first need to find an equation of the line with a slope of that passes through the point (2, 5).

y-5=-2(x-2)

y-5=-2x+4

y=-2x+9

Now, plug in the point (3,k) and solve for .

k=-2(3)+9=3

Example Question #51 : Graphing

A line goes through points (4, 8), (1, 4), (-3, N) . What is ?

Possible Answers:

N = -1

N = -7

$N=-3 \frac{1}{3}$

$N=-1 \frac{1}{3}$

$N=-9 \frac{1}{3}$

Correct answer:

$N=-1 \frac{1}{3}$

Explanation:

The slope of the line through (4, 8) and (1, 4) can be found using the slope formula:

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Set $x_{1}=1,x_{2} = 4, y_{1}=4,y_{2} = 8$ :

$m = \frac{8-4}{4-1} = \frac{4}{3}$

We can use this slope and the slope formula; set $x_{1}=1,x_{2} = -3, y_{1}=4,y_{2} = N$ :

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = m$

$\frac{N-4}{-3-1} = \frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{N-4}{-4} = \frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{N-4}{-4}\cdot \left ( -4\right ) = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \left ( -4\right )$

$N-4= -\frac{16}{3}$

$N-4+4= -\frac{16}{3} +4$

$N= -\frac{4}{3} = -1 \frac{1}{3}$

Example Question #3 : Graphing A Point

The point (5,v) lies on a line with a slope m=3 that passes through (1,2) . What is the value of ?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{2}$

Correct answer:

Explanation:

In order to find the value of , we first need to find the equation for the line with slope m=3 that passes through the point (1,2) .

y-2=3(x-1)

y-2=3x-3

y=3x-1

Plugging in (5,v) and solving for :

v=3(5)-1

v=15-1

v=14

Example Question #4 : Graphing A Point

The point (2,d) lies on a line with a slope $m=\frac{1}{2}$ that passes through (3,6) . What is the value of ?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{11}{2}$

$\frac{13}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{7}{2}$

$\frac{9}{2}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{11}{2}$

Explanation:

In order to find the value of , we first need to find the equation for the line with a slope $m=\frac{1}{2}$ that passes through (3,6) .

$y-6=\frac{1}{2}(x-3)$

$y-6=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{9}{2}$

Plugging in (2,d) and solving for :

$d=\frac{1}{2}(2)+\frac{9}{2}$

$d=\frac{11}{2}$

Example Question #5 : Graphing A Point

The point (7,a) lies on a line with a slope m=4 that passes through (1,3) . What is the value of ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

In order to find the value of , we first need to find the equation for the line with a slope m=4 that passes through (1,3) .

y-3=4(x-1)

y-3=4x-4

y=4x-1

Plugging in (7,a) and solving for :

a=4(7)-1

a=28-1

a=27

Example Question #121 : Graphing

What is the domain of $y = 4 - x^{2}$ ?

Possible Answers:

$x \geq 4$

all real numbers

x=0

$x \leq 4$

$x \leq 0$

Correct answer:

all real numbers

Explanation:

The domain of the function specifies the values that can take. Here, $4-x^{2}$ is defined for every value of , so the domain is all real numbers.
