1

If a = 6, b = 4, c = 7, and d = 3, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
14
22
24
20

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 6 + 4 + 7 + 3
p = 20


2

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

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

quadrilateral

trapezoid


Solution

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


3

Solve for z:
z2 - z - 12 = 0

58% Answer Correctly
8 or -3
5 or -1
-3 or 4
9 or -5

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

z2 - z - 12 = 0
(z + 3)(z - 4) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (z + 3) or (z - 4) must equal zero:

If (z + 3) = 0, z must equal -3
If (z - 4) = 0, z must equal 4

So the solution is that z = -3 or 4

Simplify 5a x 9b.

86% Answer Correctly
14ab
45\( \frac{a}{b} \)
45ab
45a2b2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

5a x 9b = (5 x 9) (a x b) = 45ab
