1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
64π
225π
324π
45π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 4)
v = 64π


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 8?

71% Answer Correctly
30π
12π
19π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 8π


3

What is 9a6 - 5a6?

73% Answer Correctly
a612
4
4a6
45a6

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.

9a6 - 5a6 = 4a6


4

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 1) and (2, 3). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -x + 0
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2
y = x + 1
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is 2. 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, 1) and (2, 3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(3.0) - (1.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{2}{4} \)
m = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2


5

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 - a2

c - a

a2 - c2

c2 + a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
