1

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

69% Answer Correctly
49π
25π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


2

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

42% Answer Correctly

x-intercept

y-intercept

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

slope


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

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

right angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


4

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π r

a = π d2


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

Solve for x:
-7x + 3 = 6 - 6x

59% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
-3
1
2\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-7x + 3 = 6 - 6x
-7x = 6 - 6x - 3
-7x + 6x = 6 - 3
-x = 3
x = \( \frac{3}{-1} \)
x = -3
