- 1
- 2
- 3 ✓

- y = 3x + 2
- y = −3x + 2
- y = 3x − 2 ✓

Solve for y: −4y = −2x + 8 → y = (1/2)x − 2. The slope is 1/2.
-
A line passes through (2, 5) and (6, 13). What is the y-intercept?
- −1
- 0
- 1 ✓
- 2

- y = 3x − 2
- y = −3x + 1
- y = (1/3)x + 2
- y = −(1/3)x + 4 ✓
Explicación
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals. The slope of y = 3x + 5 is 3, so the perpendicular slope is −1/3. Only y = −(1/3)x + 4 has this slope.
-
Line L passes through (1, 4) and is parallel to 3x + 2y = 6. What is the equation of L?

- y = (3/2)x + 5/2
- y = −(2/3)x + 14/3
- y = −(3/2)x + 4
Explicación
3x + 2y = 6 → y = −(3/2)x + 3, so slope = −3/2. L: y − 4 = −(3/2)(x − 1) → y = −(3/2)x + 3/2 + 4 = −(3/2)x + 11/2.

The system ax + 2y = 6 and 3x + y = 4 has no solution. What is a?
- 2
- 4
- 6 ✓
- 8
Explicación
For no solution, coefficient ratios must match but constants must not: a/3 = 2/1 → a = 6. Check: 6/3 = 2 = 2/1, but 6 ≠ 2 × 4 = 8. Confirmed no solution.
-
A store sells apples for $0.50 each and bananas for $0.30 each. Maria buys 20 pieces of fruit for $8.00. How many apples did she buy?
- 8
- 9
- 10 ✓
- 12
Explicación
Let a = apples, b = bananas. a + b = 20 and 0.5a + 0.3b = 8. Substituting b = 20 − a: 0.5a + 0.3(20 − a) = 8 → 0.2a = 2 → a = 10.
