THE BASICS; what is the vertical axis of a graph called?

A. z-axis

B. x-axis

C. y-axis

D. time-axis - (ANSWER)y-axis ;

the vertical axis of a graph is called the y-axis and extends up and down



THE BASICS; what is the name of the horizontal axis of a graph? - (ANSWER)x-axis

the horizontal axis of a graph is the x-axis. the x-axis extends side to side.



THE BASICS; how are scores on the ultrasound board exams related to study time? - (ANSWER)directly ;

two variables are related when changes in one variable result in changes in the other. when the changes
go in the same direction (both increase or both decrease), variables are directly related. Since scores
increase as study time increases, these variables are directly related.



THE BASICS; how are caloric intake and weight related? - (ANSWER)directly ;

these two terms are directly related. as food intake increases, weight increases. similarly, as food intake
decreases, weight decreases.



THE BASICS; how is weight related to a sonographer's time spent exercising? - (ANSWER)inversely ;

two variables are related when changes in one variable result in changes in the other. when the changes
follow in the opposite direction (one increases as at the other decreases), the variables are inversely
related.



THE BASICS; what is the reciprocal of 1,000? - (ANSWER)0.001 ;

a pair of reciprocal numbers, when multiplied together, have a value of 1. in this case, 1,000 x 0.001 = 1.

a pair of reciprocal numbers, when multiplied together, have value of 1. in this case, 5 x 1/5 = 1



THE BASICS; what is the reciprocal of 1/10? - (ANSWER)10 ;

a pair of reciprocal numbers, when multiplied together, have value of 1. in this case, 10 x 1/10 = 1



THE BASICS; a sack contains 6 pounds of flour. the contents of the bag are increased by a factor of 5. how
much flour is in the bag? - (ANSWER)30 pounds ;

the term "increase by a factor" means to multiply. 6 x 5 = 30 pounds.



THE BASICS; a bouquet has 30 flowers. the size of the bouquet is decreased by a factor of 3. how many
flowers remain? - (ANSWER)10 ;

the term "decrease by a factor" means to divide. 30/3 = 10.



THE BASICS; which of the following is not a measure of area?

A. square cm

B. meters squared

C. cubic meters

D. feet x feet - (ANSWER)cubic meters ;

Cubic meters are not used to measure

area; they are used to measure volume. An area is measured in units of distance

squared. For example, a rectangle's area is

its length multiplied by its width, and can be reported in square feet, in^2, or square miles



THE BASICS; a sonographer measures the perimeter of an anatomical structure. which of the following
choices is a reasonable value for the measurement?

A. 6 cm^2

B. 5 cc

C. 15 mm

D. 18 dB - (ANSWER)15 mm

"perimeter" means the length of the outer boundary of a structure. for example, a square with an edge
that is 5 inches long will have a perimeter measuring 20 inches (four sides, each with a length of 5
inches).



THE BASICS; what are the units associated with the circumference of a circle? - (ANSWER)mm ;

the circumference of a circle is the length of the circle's outer boundary and is measured in units of

is an acceptable measurement of this volume?

A. 6

B. 6 cm

C. 6 cm^2

D. 6 cm^3 - (ANSWER)6 cm^3

the units of volume are length cubes, such as ft^3 or cubic centimeters. volume may also be expressed
as length to the third power.



THE BASICS; the speed of the red blood cells traveling through a blood vessel is 750 cm/sec. you are
asked to measure this speed in miles per hour. what information would be sufficient for you to complete
your task? - (ANSWER)how many seconds per hour and the number of miles in a centimeter;



To convert one unit to another requires a

factor that relates the two terms. For

example, to change a measurement of

length from feet into inches, we must know. now many inches are in a foot. In this case We are asked to
convert cm per sec into miles per hour. Therefore, we require two pieces of information: the relationship
between seconds and hours (relating one Unit of time to another) and the relationship between miles

and centimeters (relating one unit of distance to another). When units are changed, the actual amount
does not change. For example, ten dimes provide the same purchasing power as four quarters. The units
