Find the value of a:
9a + x = -4
7a - 7x = -6

42% Answer Correctly
5\(\frac{3}{4}\)
-\(\frac{13}{87}\)
-15
-\(\frac{17}{35}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of a so solve the first equation in terms of x:

9a + x = -4
x = -4 - 9a

then substitute the result (-4 - 9a) into the second equation:

7a - 7(-4 - 9a) = -6
7a + (-7 x -4) + (-7 x -9a) = -6
7a + 28 + 63a = -6
7a + 63a = -6 - 28
70a = -34
a = \( \frac{-34}{70} \)
a = -\(\frac{17}{35}\)


2

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


3

If angle a = 38° and angle b = 50° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
83°
92°
91°
110°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 38° - 50° = 92°


4

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

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

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.


5

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

90% Answer Correctly

4

2

5

3


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.
