Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

squaring

normalizing

deconstructing

factoring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


2

What is 9a9 - 8a9?

74% Answer Correctly
72a9
1a9
1
17a18

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.

9a9 - 8a9 = 1a9


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h

π r2h2

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -3) and (2, 9). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, -3) and (2, 9) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(9.0) - (-3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3
