Each week, Rosario drives to an ice-skating rink that is 60 miles away. The round-trip takes 2.75 hours. If he averages 55 miles per hour on his way to the rink, which equation can be used to find x, the number of miles per hour he averages on his way home? A) 60/55 + 60/x = 2.75 B) (60/55) (60/x) = 2.75 C) 60(55) + 60x = 2.75 D) [60(55)] (60x) = 2.75

A) 60/55 + 60/x = 2.75

A) The value of the comic book decreased by a total of $0.04 between m = 36 and m = 60. B) The value of the comic book increased by a total of $0.04 between m = 36 and m = 60. C) The value of the comic book decreased by an average of $0.04 each month between m = 36 and m = 60. D) The value of the comic book increased by an average of $0.04 each month between m = 36 and m = 60.

C) The value of the comic book decreased by an average of $0.04 each month between m = 36 and m = 60.

A) -6

If f(x) is an even function and (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), which reason explains why (-6, 8) must also be a point on the graph? A) Since the function is even, the outputs of a negative x-value and a positive x-value are the same. B) Since the function is even, the outputs of a negative y-value and a positive y-value are the same. C) The graph has rotational symmetry, so the point will be reflected across the y-axis. D) The graph has rotational symmetry, so the point will be rotated 90 degrees about the origin.

A) Since the function is even, the outputs of a negative x-value and a positive x-value are the same.

Paul can install a 300-square-foot hardwood floor in 18 hours. Matt can install the same floor in 22 hours. How long would it take Paul and Matt to install the floor working together? A) 4 hours B) 9.9 hours C) 13.2 hours D) 30 hours

B) 9.9 hours

To determine whether a graph of a relation is also a function, Shayla declares that the y-axis is a vertical line and counts the number of times that the graph intersects the y-axis. If the graph has exactly one y-intercept, Shayla concludes that the graph shows a function. In all other cases, she declares that it is not a function. Is Shayla applying the vertical line test correctly? A) No, because the y-axis is a horizontal line. B) No, because using the y-axis tests only whether x = 0 is mapped to multiple values. C) Yes, because multiple y-intercepts represent multiple x-values being mapped to y = 0. D) Yes, because the y-axis represents all vertical lines of the x-values.

B) No, because using the y-axis tests only whether x = 0 is mapped to multiple values.
