1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 5) and (2, -1). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
3
-2
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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, 5) and (2, -1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-1.0) - (5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-6}{4} \)
m = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

What is 8a8 + 6a8?

76% Answer Correctly
a816
14
14a16
14a8

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

8a8 + 6a8 = 14a8


3

Simplify (2a)(7ab) + (5a2)(5b).

65% Answer Correctly
90a2b
11a2b
39a2b
-11ab2

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)(7ab) + (5a2)(5b)
(2 x 7)(a x a x b) + (5 x 5)(a2 x b)
(14)(a1+1 x b) + (25)(a2b)
14a2b + 25a2b
39a2b


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 1?

71% Answer Correctly
19π
14π
36π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 1π


5

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 + a2

a2 - c2

c - a

c2 - a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
