Solve 6a - 9a = -a + 6z - 7 for a in terms of z.

35% Answer Correctly
-z + 1
-z - \(\frac{4}{11}\)
-2\(\frac{3}{7}\)z - \(\frac{3}{7}\)
2\(\frac{1}{7}\)z - 1

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (a) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

6a - 9z = -a + 6z - 7
6a = -a + 6z - 7 + 9z
6a + a = 6z - 7 + 9z
7a = 15z - 7
a = \( \frac{15z - 7}{7} \)
a = \( \frac{15z}{7} \) + \( \frac{-7}{7} \)
a = 2\(\frac{1}{7}\)z - 1


2

Simplify 8a x 7b.

86% Answer Correctly
56ab
56\( \frac{a}{b} \)
56a2b2
15ab

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.

8a x 7b = (8 x 7) (a x b) = 56ab


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
81
35
32
48

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 2 x 6 x 4
v = 48


4

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r

c = π d2

c = π d

c = π r2


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.


5

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

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w


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.
