Solve for c:
7c - 8 = \( \frac{c}{4} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{16}{19}\)
1\(\frac{2}{19}\)
1\(\frac{5}{27}\)
\(\frac{30}{41}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

7c - 8 = \( \frac{c}{4} \)
4 x (7c - 8) = c
(4 x 7c) + (4 x -8) = c
28c - 32 = c
28c - 32 - c = 0
28c - c = 32
27c = 32
c = \( \frac{32}{27} \)
c = 1\(\frac{5}{27}\)


2

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

triangle

trapezoid


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


4

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

factoring

squaring

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


5

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r

a = π d2

a = π r2

a = π d


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.
