Answer:
Quite simply. The answer is X=6
Since you have a full fraction, you can find a common denominator in both fractions and multiply. (The common denominator would be 8, so you would multiply 4 by 2 to get 8. Do the same thing to the top, do multiply 3 by 2 to get 6). Now the fraction is 6/8, and since it's equal to incomplete fraction, you know X is 6.
13. Pick a point and see which formula works.
Ay = -4, A'y = 7. Only the formula of selection D makes that translation.
14. Use the compound interest formula A = P*(1 +r/n)^(nt).
..1500*1.015^80 = 4935.99, matching selection C
15. The lid has a perimeter of 90", so the area of the sides is
.. 90" * 24" = 2160 in^2
The area of the lid is
.. 30" * 15" = 450 in^2
The gray area is (2160 -450) in^2 = 1710 in^2 larger, corresponding to selection C.
16. The only formula that maps (7, -1) to (21, -3) is that of selection D.
_____
The middle two problems are the only ones that require you to have prior knowledge. The others could be answered simply by seeing if the answers work.
Yes, sqrt of 1815, cannot be rationalized
