Step-by-step explanation:
there is no mathematical problem to solve.
just follow the instructions as given.
this is an exercise for you to get a feeling about what is what. it is imperative that you do it.
there is really nothing to solve.
remember, that a positive slope means the line goes up (from left to right), and a negative slope means the line goes down (again from left to right).
and I am sure you know what vertical and horizontal means.

Answer:
d = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Add -8 -5 +7
take that number : -6
72 divided by -6 = -12
d = -12
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.
