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

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w


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

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

chord

radius

circumference

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

squaring

factoring

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


4

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.


5

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

42% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

slope

x-intercept

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


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.
