Simplify 8a x 9b.

85% Answer Correctly
72a2b2
17ab
72ab
72\( \frac{a}{b} \)

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.

8a x 9b = (8 x 9) (a x b) = 72ab


2

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% 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).


3

Solve for a:
-6a + 9 > \( \frac{a}{5} \)

44% Answer Correctly
a > -\(\frac{28}{33}\)
a > \(\frac{10}{19}\)
a > \(\frac{15}{41}\)
a > 1\(\frac{14}{31}\)

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.

-6a + 9 > \( \frac{a}{5} \)
5 x (-6a + 9) > a
(5 x -6a) + (5 x 9) > a
-30a + 45 > a
-30a + 45 - a > 0
-30a - a > -45
-31a > -45
a > \( \frac{-45}{-31} \)
a > 1\(\frac{14}{31}\)


4

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


5

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

radius

chord

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).
