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

71% Answer Correctly

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 4π


2

Simplify (y + 5)(y - 4)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 + y - 20
y2 - y - 20
y2 + 9y + 20
y2 - 9y + 20

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 5)(y - 4)
(y x y) + (y x -4) + (5 x y) + (5 x -4)
y2 - 4y + 5y - 20
y2 + y - 20


3

Solve for x:
2x - 1 = \( \frac{x}{9} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{11}{13}\)
\(\frac{9}{17}\)
\(\frac{18}{55}\)
-\(\frac{10}{11}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

2x - 1 = \( \frac{x}{9} \)
9 x (2x - 1) = x
(9 x 2x) + (9 x -1) = x
18x - 9 = x
18x - 9 - x = 0
18x - x = 9
17x = 9
x = \( \frac{9}{17} \)
x = \(\frac{9}{17}\)


4

What is 2a8 + 7a8?

75% Answer Correctly
-5
9a8
14a8
-5a16

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.

2a8 + 7a8 = 9a8


5

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

radius

chord

circumference


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).
