Module 15 Answers

1. Correct Answer Explanation: A) First, subtract the weight of the trailer from the
total weight the truck can tow to find out how much weight in items the truck can tow.
This gives us 6000 − 600 = 5400 pounds. Then, divide this weight by the weight of each
item to find out how many items the truck can tow. This gives us 5400 ÷ 80 = 67.5.
Since we can’t have half an item, we round down to 67 items.

2. Correct Answer Explanation: A) The problem states that the difference between
10 times a number b and 2 is 58. This can be written as an equation: 10b − 2 = 58.

3. Correct Answer Explanation: C) In the function q(g) = 600 + 110g, g represents


the number of bi-weekly deposits and 110g is the total amount of money deposited after
g deposits. Therefore, 110 represents the amount of money that Lily deposits into her
bank account every two weeks.

4. Correct Answer Explanation: -7: The function r(x) = (x−2)(x+16) is a quadratic


function, and its graph is a parabola. The minimum value of a parabola that opens
upwards (which is the case here, since the coefficient of x2 is positive) is at its vertex.
The x-coordinate of the vertex of a parabola given by y = ax2 + bx + c is −b/2a. In
this case, a = 1 (the coefficient of x2 ) and b = −2 + 16 = 14 (the coefficient of x).
Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is −b/2a = −14/2 = −7.

5. Correct Answer Explanation: D) The baker uses 2 cups of flour for each loaf of
bread. He has 16 cups of flour. To find out how many loaves he can make, we divide
the total amount of flour by the amount of flour used for each loaf. So, 16 cups ÷ 2
cups/loaf = 8 loaves.

6. Correct Answer Explanation: C) Subtracting the second equation from the first,
we get 24x = −36, which gives x = −1.5. Substituting x = −1.5 into the first equation,
we get 36(−1.5) + y = 72, which simplifies to y = 72 − 36(−1.5) = 126.

7. Correct Answer Explanation: D) Since there is no solution for a, the equation of


the parabola cannot be written in the form y = vx2 + wx + z. Therefore, the value of
v + w + z is undefined.

8. Correct Answer Explanation: 13.33: Substitute h = 20 into the equation to get


9g + 60 = 180. Subtract 60 from both sides to get 9g = 120. Finally, divide both sides
by 9 to solve for g, which gives g = 120
9
= 13.33.

9. Correct Answer
√
Explanation: C) The area of an equilateral triangle
√
is given by
3 3
the formula 4 x side . Substituting 72 for the side length, we get 4 x 722 = 2244.7
2

square inches.

10. Correct Answer Explanation: D) Substitute p from the second equation into the
first equation to get 7q + q = 24. Simplify to get 8q = 24. Divide by 8 to get q = 3.
Substitute q = 3 into the first equation to get p + 3 = 24. Subtract 3 from both sides
to get p = 21.

11. Correct Answer Explanation: A) Substituting x = 0 into the function s(x), we get
s(0) = 350(0.35)0 = 350 ∗ 1 = 350.

12. Correct Answer Explanation: C) The range of the fraction of the population that
could have this attribute is calculated by adding and subtracting the margin of error
from the estimated fraction. So, 0.55 + 0.02 = 0.57 and 0.55 − 0.02 = 0.53. Therefore,
the range is 0.53 to 0.57.

13. Correct Answer Explanation: B) We know that 1 kilometer = 1,000 meters. To


convert meters to kilometers, we divide the number of meters by 1,000. So, 35,200
meters = 35200
1000
= 35.2 kilometers.

14. Correct Answer Explanation: C) Both 16q 3 and 5q 3 are like terms because they
have the same variable part, q 3 . We subtract the coefficients (the numbers in front of
the variable part) to combine these terms: 16q 3 − 5q 3 = (16 − 5)q 3 = 11q 3 .

15. Correct Answer Explanation: A) The general form of the equation of a circle is
(x − h)2 + (y − k)2 = r2 , where (h,k) is the center of the circle and √
r is the radius. In
the given equation, the center of circle M is (7,0) and the radius is 49 = 7. Shifting
the circle 7 units to the left means subtracting 7 from the x-coordinate of the center.
So, the center of circle N is (7-7,0) = (0,0). Therefore, the equation of circle N is
x2 + y 2 = 49.

16. Correct Answer Explanation: C) The slope of a line is the coefficient of x in the
line’s equation. In the equation v(x) = 11x − 2, the coefficient of x is 11. Since line s
is parallel to the graph of v(x), it must have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of
line s is 11.

17. Correct Answer Explanation: A) 300 is 200% more than 100, so y = 200.

18. Correct Answer Explanation: C) The new value of the stock is calculated by adding
the increase (10% of $1000, which is $100) to the initial value ($1000). This gives $1000
+ $100 = $1100.

19. Correct Answer Explanation: B) Subtracting 36 from both sides of the equation
24x + 36 = 108 gives 24x = 72. Dividing both sides by 24 gives the solution x = 3.

20. Correct Answer Explanation: D) The number of algae cells doubles every 10 hours,
so after 40 hours (which is 4 doubling periods), the number of cells will be 1, 000, 000 ×
24 = 16, 000, 000.

21. Correct Answer Explanation: A) The vertex of the parabola represents the maxi-
mum point. In this case, the vertex is (2017, 5000), so the year with the most visitors
is 2017.

22. Correct Answer Explanation: A) Substitute x = -2 into the equation y = r(x) to


get y = 2(−2)3 − 4(−2)2 + 1 = −16 − 16 + 1 = −31.
