If b = 4 and z = -8, what is the value of -2b(b - z)?

69% Answer Correctly
-96
-1088
-21
-105

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.)

-2b(b - z)
-2(4)(4 + 8)
-2(4)(12)
(-8)(12)
-96


2

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

77% Answer Correctly

problem

expression

formula

equation


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to 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.


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

What is 4a + 2a?

81% Answer Correctly
8a2
6a
2a2
a2

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.

4a + 2a = 6a


5

If a = c = 5, b = d = 7, and the blue angle = 60°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
35
7
16
8

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 7
a = 35
