1

If a = 7, b = 3, c = 8, and d = 6, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
16
24
19
22

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 7 + 3 + 8 + 6
p = 24


2

Solve for x:
-x + 7 < -5 - 3x

55% Answer Correctly
x < \(\frac{3}{4}\)
x < 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
x < -6
x < -\(\frac{1}{4}\)

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 < sign and the answer on the other.

-x + 7 < -5 - 3x
-x < -5 - 3x - 7
-x + 3x < -5 - 7
2x < -12
x < \( \frac{-12}{2} \)
x < -6


3

If side a = 5, side b = 6, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{68} \)
10
\( \sqrt{40} \)
\( \sqrt{61} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 52 + 62
c2 = 25 + 36
c2 = 61
c = \( \sqrt{61} \)


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 9. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
210
168
189
216

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 8 x 3 x 9
v = 216
