MATH 110 UPDATED ACTUAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
Question 1.
X and Y coordinates
ANSWER
The x coordinate is a given number of pixels along the horizontal axis of a display starting
from the pixel (pixel 0) on the extreme left of the screen. The y coordinate is a given number
of pixels along the vertical axis of a display starting from the pixel (pixel 0) at the top of the
screen.
Question 2.
x-intercept
ANSWER
the x-coordinate of a point where a line, curve, or surface intersects the x-axis.
Question 3.
Slope of a line
ANSWER
, The slope of a line (also called the gradient of a line) is a number that describes how "steep" it
is. the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the
steepness of the line.
Question 4.
point-slope form
ANSWER
the equation of a straight line in the form y y1 = m(x x1) where m is the slope of the line
and (x1, y1) are the coordinates of a given point on the line — compare slope-intercept form.
Question 5.
linear equations
ANSWER
an equation between two variables that gives a straight line when plotted on a graph.
Question 6.
square function
ANSWER
