Question: The two lines y = x and x = -4 intersect on the coordinate plane. If z represents the area of the figure formed by the intersecting lines and the x-axis, what is the side length Q of a cube whose surface area is equal to 6z?
Options:
A)Q=16
B)Q=8√2
C)Q=8
D)Q=2√2
E)(√2)/3
Rationale: 800score Official Solution:
The first step to solving this problem is to actually graph the two lines. The lines intersect at the point (-4, -4) and form a right triangle whose base length and height are both equal to 4. As you know, the area of a triangle is equal to one half the product of its base length and height: A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(4 × 4) = 8; so z = 8.
The next step requires us to find the length of a side of a cube that has a face area equal to 8. As you know the 6 faces of a cube are squares. So, we can reduce the problem to finding the length of the side of a square that has an area of 8. Since the area of a square is equal to s², where s is the length of one of its side, we can write and solve the equation s² = 8. Clearly s = √8 = 2√2 , oranswer choice (D).

Options:
A)21
B)18
C)16
D)12

Options:
A)12
B)16
C)20
D)30
E)81
Rationale: It seems like you were really close but you solved for p - 1 instead. I am curious - how did you reason through the question? Perhaps you figured the answer has to be in the form of p(p -1), e.g. (3)(4) = 12. Even then, had you figured p has to be a little bigger (plugging in 4 for p gives you 81 which is too low), So when you reasoned the answer to be 4 you may have plugged the 4 in the (p - 1) exponent place.
Again, a quick plugging in should get you (C) 20 as, the only other answer with consecutive integers as factors is far too big.

Question: A wheel has a diameter of x inches and a second wheel has a diameter of y inches. The first wheel covers a distance of D feet in 100 revolutions. How many revolutions does the second wheel make in covering d feet?
Options:
A)100xy
B)100y - x
C)100x/y
D)100y/x
E)100x - y
Rationale: First Wheel with diameter x inches ----> So the circumference = x*pi --------- (1)
Second Wheel with diameter y inches ----> So the circumference = y*pi --------- (2)
Revolutions = distance/circumference
So, from equation (1)
100 = D/(x*pi)
D = 100 * x * pi ---------- (3)
From equation (2)
Revolutions = D/(y*pi) = (100 * x * pi) / (y*pi) = 100x/y
Answer (C)
