What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?
Answer: y = mx + b
The slope-intercept form y = mx + b identifies the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) directly, making it easy to graph and analyze linear relationships.
What is the Pythagorean theorem?
Answer: a² + b² = c²
The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Simplify: 3(2x - 4) + 5x
Answer: 11x - 12
Distribute: 6x - 12 + 5x = 11x - 12.
What is the area of a triangle with base 10 and height 6?
Answer: 30
Area of a triangle = ½ × base × height = ½ × 10 × 6 = 30 square units.
If f(x) = 2x + 3, what is f(4)?
Answer: 11
Substitute x = 4: f(4) = 2(4) + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11.
What is 15% of 60?
Answer: 9
15% of 60 = 0.15 × 60 = 9.
