1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 5. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
125π
128π
48π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(52 x 5)
v = 125π


2

Solve for c:
9c + 2 = \( \frac{c}{9} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{28}{31}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{7}\)
-\(\frac{9}{40}\)

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.

9c + 2 = \( \frac{c}{9} \)
9 x (9c + 2) = c
(9 x 9c) + (9 x 2) = c
81c + 18 = c
81c + 18 - c = 0
81c - c = -18
80c = -18
c = \( \frac{-18}{80} \)
c = -\(\frac{9}{40}\)


3

If b = 7 and y = 9, what is the value of b(b - y)?

68% Answer Correctly
30
-162
12
-14

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

b(b - y)
1(7)(7 - 9)
1(7)(-2)
(7)(-2)
-14


4

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

180°

360°

90°

45°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


5

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the lengths of all sides are equal

all interior angles are right angles

the area is length x width

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).
