24 The volume of the box is 10 × 15 × 20 = 3,000. Each of the small cubes being placed into the box has a volume of 5^3 = 125. ...

The x-coordinate designates the horizontal position of a point. If a point is to the right of the origin, then its x-coordinate ...

y x Positive slope/atter To determine the slope of a line, you are looking for the ratio of how much the line rises vertically ...

Y-intercept In the equation y = mx + b, b refers to the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept of a line refers to where a lin ...

Using Two Points to Determine a Line Generally, if the GRE asks you to determine the equation for a line, it will do so by provi ...

SOLUTION: Plug each point into the equation. Whichever point keeps the equation true will be your answer. A: 7 = 7(3) + 3? → Fal ...

Parallel and Perpendicular Lines If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal and the lines never intersect. (See figu ...

Distance Between Two Points You can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance between two points on the coordinate p ...

Step 3: Calculate the lengths of each side of the resulting triangle: (1,3) 4 3 (4,3) (4,7) y x The length of the horizontal leg ...

Exercise: The Coordinate Plane Discrete Quantitative Questions For this question, write your answer in the box. What is the slo ...

For this question, indicate all answers that apply. If the slope of a line on the coordinate plane is negative, which of the fo ...

Line k is defined by the equation ax + by = c. If the slope of line k is positive, which of the following must be true? A ab & ...

(3, 5) (0, 0) l m Lines l and m intersect at the point (3,5) QUANTITY A QUANTITY B The slope of line l 2 A B C D Line q passes ...

In the xy-plane, the circumference of Circle C contains the points (x,0) and (0,y). QUANTITY A QUANTITY B The diameter of the c ...

A First, determine the equation for the line. Since the slope is^23 , the equation initially reads: y =^23 x + b. To solve for ...

II I III IV y x All three lines have negative slopes and pass through Quadrants II and IV. Whether the lines pass through the ot ...

D Since lines l and k are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals. Since the slope of line l is 3, the slope of li ...

C Since the circle touches the axes at these points, the distance between the center of the circle and (0,y) must equal the dis ...
