1

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


2

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

42% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

x-intercept

slope

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


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.


3

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
12
28
42
40

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 6 x 7 x 1
v = 42


5

If a = c = 8, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
72
12
2
5

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 9
a = 72
