Simplify (9a)(8ab) + (9a2)(3b).

65% Answer Correctly
99a2b
-45a2b
204ab2
45ab2

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.

(9a)(8ab) + (9a2)(3b)
(9 x 8)(a x a x b) + (9 x 3)(a2 x b)
(72)(a1+1 x b) + (27)(a2b)
72a2b + 27a2b
99a2b


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, -4). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-3
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, -4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-4.0) - (8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


3

What is 7a - 3a?

79% Answer Correctly
a2
4a
4a2
4

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

7a - 3a = 4a


4

If a = c = 2, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
4
40
6
48

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 3
a = 6


5

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

triangle

trapezoid

rhombus


Solution

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