1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, -4). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-3
-1
2
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, -4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-4.0) - (8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
32π
96π
24π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 6)
v = 96π


3

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

61% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


4

What is 8a + 8a?

81% Answer Correctly
16
16a
64a2
a2

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

8a + 8a = 16a


5

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).
