<p>A line graphed on a coordinate plane.</p>

  1. See graph.
  2. Yes. Sample explanations: There is a linear relationship because the equation relating height and volume is in the same form as y=mx+by = mx + b with m=12πm=12\pi and b=0b=0; There is a linear relationship because there is a proportional relationship, and all proportional relationships are linear.

Minimal Tier 1 response:

  • Work is complete and correct.
  • Sample:
  1. See graph.
  2. Yes, because the volume is 12π12 \pi times the height.

Tier 2 response:

  • Work shows general conceptual understanding and mastery, with some errors.
  • Sample errors: Some points in part a are incorrectly plotted, but the explanation for part b is correct based on independent justification; answer for part b is something like "the graph looks like a line" without further justification that the graph is linear.

Tier 3 response:

  • Significant errors in work demonstrate lack of conceptual understanding or mastery.
  • Sample errors: Any explanation for part b that does not appeal to slope, proportionality, the form of the equation for a line, or other concepts related to linearity; an incorrect graph in part a, with an incorrect answer to part b (including answers based on the nonlinearity of the graph).

11.8 meters. If the height in meters is hh, then the equation π⋅(1.6)2⋅h=95\pi \boldcdot (1.6)^2 \boldcdot h = 95 is true. Using 3.14 as an approximation for π\pi gives the equation 8.04h=958.04h = 95, and the solution to this equation is h≈11.8h \approx 11.8.
6.

Sample explanations:

  • Cone B has radius 3 units and height 16 units. When the radius is halved, the height must be multiplied by 4 to keep the volume the same.
  • Cone B could have any radius rr and height hh as long as 13r2h=48\frac 1 3 r^2h = 48, or r2h=144r^2h = 144. One possible solution is radius 2 units and height 36 units, but there are others.

Minimal Tier 1 response:

  • Work is complete and correct.
  • Acceptable errors: Omission of units; work demonstrates that the volume of Cone B is 48π48\pi but does not directly compare to Cone A.
  • Sample: Radius 4 and height 9, which has volume 13⋅π⋅42⋅9\frac13 \cdot\pi \cdot 4^2 \cdot 9. This is 48π48\pi cubic units, the same as Cone A.

Tier 2 response:

  • Work shows general conceptual understanding and mastery, with some errors.
  • Sample errors: Arithmetic errors involving scaling; carefully written work reveals arithmetic errors involving the volume formula of a cone; scaling arguments involving a similar but incorrect volume formula, such as the formula for the volume of a cylinder.

Tier 3 response:

  • Significant errors in work demonstrate lack of conceptual understanding or mastery.
  • Sample errors: Conceptual errors involving scaling; calculations are done using an incorrect volume formula; incorrect answer with no or little work shown; correct answer with no work shown and no comparison to Cone A.
