Simplify (4a)(7ab) - (5a2)(2b).

62% Answer Correctly
-18ab2
38ab2
77ab2
18a2b

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.

(4a)(7ab) - (5a2)(2b)
(4 x 7)(a x a x b) - (5 x 2)(a2 x b)
(28)(a1+1 x b) - (10)(a2b)
28a2b - 10a2b
18a2b


2

If angle a = 48° and angle b = 34° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
128°
78°
52°
98°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 48° - 34° = 98°


3

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

intersects

bisects

trisects

midpoints


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


4

Solve -9a - 7a = -4a + 9x - 6 for a in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
-3\(\frac{1}{5}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{5}\)
1\(\frac{1}{6}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{7}{8}\)x + \(\frac{3}{8}\)
x + \(\frac{2}{7}\)

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.

-9a - 7x = -4a + 9x - 6
-9a = -4a + 9x - 6 + 7x
-9a + 4a = 9x - 6 + 7x
-5a = 16x - 6
a = \( \frac{16x - 6}{-5} \)
a = \( \frac{16x}{-5} \) + \( \frac{-6}{-5} \)
a = -3\(\frac{1}{5}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{5}\)


5

Simplify 6a x 6b.

86% Answer Correctly
36\( \frac{b}{a} \)
36a2b2
12ab
36ab

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.

6a x 6b = (6 x 6) (a x b) = 36ab
