1

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh


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.


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -4) and (2, 8). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
y = 3x + 2
y = 2x + 4
y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)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, -4) and (2, 8) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(8.0) - (-4.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = 3x + 2


3

Simplify (2a)(8ab) + (6a2)(6b).

65% Answer Correctly
52a2b
52ab2
120a2b
-20ab2

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.

(2a)(8ab) + (6a2)(6b)
(2 x 8)(a x a x b) + (6 x 6)(a2 x b)
(16)(a1+1 x b) + (36)(a2b)
16a2b + 36a2b
52a2b


4

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

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

bisects

trisects

intersects


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.


5

If the base of this triangle is 4 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
70
20
21
18

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 4 x 9 = \( \frac{36}{2} \) = 18
