What is the definition of absolute value? Find |-20|
Absolute value is the distance a number is from 0. |-20| = 20
What is the slope of y = x?
m = 1
What is the y intercept of the equation 2y = -4x - 10
b = -5
A jukebox has 2 rock CDs, 5 country CDs, 7 R&B CDs, and 6 rap CDs. The jukebox randomly selects a CD to play. What are the odds the jukebox will not choose a rock CD?
2 + 5 + 7 + 6 = 20 CDs total Only 2 are rock, so 18/20 are not rock = 9/10 or 90%
The slope AND y intercept from the equation
5x - 8y = -16
m = 5/8
b = 2
Solve the following inequality for the variable: x/2 - 4 > 8
x > 24
Solve the following proportions: 16 / x = 2 / 3 x = ? n / 8 = 3 / 4 n = ?
x = 24 n = 6
The following equation in function form is
2y + 2= -3x
y = -3/2x - 1
A 7th grader is taking his crush to the movies. He has $40 to spend. They go to the movies in the afternoon, when the tickets are only $8 each. He really wants to buy some snacks, too, which are on special for $5 each. Set up an inequality to depict this scenario, and then explain how many possible snacks he could buy.
2*8 + 5x < 40 (Note: < means less than or equal to) 1. Subtract 16 from both sides: 5x < 24 2. Divide both sides by 5: x < 4 remainder 4 So, he can buy UP TO 4 snacks.
Chandler and Ross are playing cards. What is the probability that Chandler will get a 5 (and keep it) AND THEN Ross will get an 8?
4/52 * 4/51 = 16/2652 1/13*4/51 = 4/663
The inequality for the following graph is

y < 3
