1

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)
40\(\frac{1}{2}\)
78
24\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 9 = \( \frac{81}{2} \) = 40\(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

Simplify (3a)(2ab) - (3a2)(2b).

62% Answer Correctly
0a2b
25a2b
2b
12a2b

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.

(3a)(2ab) - (3a2)(2b)
(3 x 2)(a x a x b) - (3 x 2)(a2 x b)
(6)(a1+1 x b) - (6)(a2b)
6a2b - 6a2b
0a2b


3

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r2

c = π r

c = π d


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


4

Solve for c:
-c - 7 > \( \frac{c}{3} \)

44% Answer Correctly
c > -1\(\frac{13}{43}\)
c > -\(\frac{4}{7}\)
c > -1\(\frac{11}{14}\)
c > -5\(\frac{1}{4}\)

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.

-c - 7 > \( \frac{c}{3} \)
3 x (-c - 7) > c
(3 x -c) + (3 x -7) > c
-3c - 21 > c
-3c - 21 - c > 0
-3c - c > 21
-4c > 21
c > \( \frac{21}{-4} \)
c > -5\(\frac{1}{4}\)


5

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

radius

diameter


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).
