1

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

2

4

3

5


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 3 and radius (r) = 6. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
12π
108π
60π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(62) + 2π(6 x 3)
sa = 2π(36) + 2π(18)
sa = (2 x 36)π + (2 x 18)π
sa = 72π + 36π
sa = 108π


3

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

radius

diameter

circumference

chord


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


4

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

slope

y-intercept

x-intercept


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.

Simplify (5a)(9ab) - (5a2)(3b).

62% Answer Correctly
60a2b
-30ab2
30a2b
112a2b

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)(9ab) - (5a2)(3b)
(5 x 9)(a x a x b) - (5 x 3)(a2 x b)
(45)(a1+1 x b) - (15)(a2b)
45a2b - 15a2b
30a2b
