1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 7 and radius (r) = 5. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
24π
120π
36π
110π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(52) + 2π(5 x 7)
sa = 2π(25) + 2π(35)
sa = (2 x 25)π + (2 x 35)π
sa = 50π + 70π
sa = 120π


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 11?

71% Answer Correctly
28π
11π
26π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 11π


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

53% Answer Correctly

4π r2

π r2h

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.

Factor y2 - 4y - 5

54% Answer Correctly
(y + 5)(y + 1)
(y - 5)(y + 1)
(y - 5)(y - 1)
(y + 5)(y - 1)

Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -5 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal -4. For this problem, those two numbers are -5 and 1. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):

y2 - 4y - 5
y2 + (-5 + 1)y + (-5 x 1)
(y - 5)(y + 1)


5

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

74% Answer Correctly

squaring

factoring

deconstructing

normalizing


Solution

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