1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 5. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
120
50
320
15

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 1 x 3 x 5
v = 15


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

x-axis

y-axis

all of these

origin


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


3

If angle a = 62° and angle b = 59° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
118°
134°
147°
137°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 62° - 59° = 59°

So, d° = 59° + 59° = 118°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 62° = 118°


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

monomial

polynomial

quadratic

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, -4). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 0) and (2, -4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-4.0) - (0.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-4}{4} \)
m = -1
