Simplify (3a)(2ab) - (7a2)(2b).
| -8a2b | |
| 45a2b | |
| 8ab2 | |
| 20ab2 |
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) - (7a2)(2b)
(3 x 2)(a x a x b) - (7 x 2)(a2 x b)
(6)(a1+1 x b) - (14)(a2b)
6a2b - 14a2b
-8a2b
If the area of this square is 64, what is the length of one of the diagonals?
| 6\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 4\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{2} \) |
To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:
a = s2
so the length of one side of the square is:
s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{64} \) = 8
The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 82
c2 = 128
c = \( \sqrt{128} \) = \( \sqrt{64 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{64} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?
| 3π | |
| 4π | |
| 9π | |
| 5π |
The formula for area is πr2:
a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π
If a = 1, b = 1, c = 3, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?
| 23 | |
| 10 | |
| 6 | |
| 24 |
Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:
p = a + b + c + d
p = 1 + 1 + 3 + 5
p = 10
Solve for b:
-8b + 3 < 5 - 7b
| b < 1\(\frac{1}{7}\) | |
| b < 3 | |
| b < -1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| b < -2 |
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.
-8b + 3 < 5 - 7b
-8b < 5 - 7b - 3
-8b + 7b < 5 - 3
-b < 2
b < \( \frac{2}{-1} \)
b < -2
