Simplify (4a)(4ab) + (2a2)(7b).

65% Answer Correctly
72a2b
-2a2b
30ab2
30a2b

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)(4ab) + (2a2)(7b)
(4 x 4)(a x a x b) + (2 x 7)(a2 x b)
(16)(a1+1 x b) + (14)(a2b)
16a2b + 14a2b
30a2b

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 4?

70% Answer Correctly
49π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{4}{2} \)
r = 2
a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π


3

Solve -5b + 2b = -8b - 6x - 7 for b in terms of x.

35% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{1}{3}\)x + \(\frac{2}{9}\)
x + 9
\(\frac{12}{17}\)x + \(\frac{5}{17}\)
-2\(\frac{2}{3}\)x - 2\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (b) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

-5b + 2x = -8b - 6x - 7
-5b = -8b - 6x - 7 - 2x
-5b + 8b = -6x - 7 - 2x
3b = -8x - 7
b = \( \frac{-8x - 7}{3} \)
b = \( \frac{-8x}{3} \) + \( \frac{-7}{3} \)
b = -2\(\frac{2}{3}\)x - 2\(\frac{1}{3}\)


4

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

normalizing

factoring

deconstructing

squaring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


5

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.
