Into how many sections do the two axes cut the coordinate plane?

  1. Two sections
  2. Four sections
  3. Three sections
  4. Eight sections
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Four sections

1. The x-axis runs across and the y-axis runs up and down, and they meet at right angles. 2. Two lines crossing at right angles cut the plane into four sections. 3. Each of those sections is called a quadrant, and they are numbered anticlockwise. _Source: OpenStax College Algebra (CC BY 4.0), section 2.1 The Rectangular Coordinate Systems and Graphs_

To find the x-intercept of a graph, which value is set to zero?

  1. The value of x
  2. The slope value
  3. The input value
  4. The value of y
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. The value of y

1. The x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the x-axis. 2. Every point on the x-axis has a y-coordinate of 0. 3. So set y equal to zero and solve the equation for x. _Source: OpenStax College Algebra (CC BY 4.0), section 2.1 The Rectangular Coordinate Systems and Graphs_

An equation that is true for every value of the variable is called what?

  1. An identity equation
  2. A conditional equation
  3. An inconsistent rule
  4. A quadratic equation
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. An identity equation

1. Linear equations in one variable come in three kinds. 2. An identity equation is true for all values of the variable, so its solution set is all real numbers. 3. A conditional equation is true for only some values, and an inconsistent one is true for none. _Source: OpenStax College Algebra (CC BY 4.0), section 2.2 Linear Equations in One Variable_
