1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 6. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
320
96
18
54

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 2 x 8 x 6
v = 96


2

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

91% Answer Correctly

pairs

division

addition

exponents


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)


3

Solve for b:
-9b - 5 < 7 - 6b

55% Answer Correctly
b < -4
b < 3
b < 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
b < -\(\frac{2}{9}\)

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 < sign and the answer on the other.

-9b - 5 < 7 - 6b
-9b < 7 - 6b + 5
-9b + 6b < 7 + 5
-3b < 12
b < \( \frac{12}{-3} \)
b < -4


4

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

chord

circumference

diameter

radius


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).


5

Simplify (4a)(9ab) - (7a2)(5b).

62% Answer Correctly
156a2b
1a2b
a2b
156ab2

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.

(4a)(9ab) - (7a2)(5b)
(4 x 9)(a x a x b) - (7 x 5)(a2 x b)
(36)(a1+1 x b) - (35)(a2b)
36a2b - 35a2b
1a2b
