What is 7a - 7a?

78% Answer Correctly
49a
a2
0a
14a2

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.

7a - 7a = 0a


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

x-axis

origin

y-axis

all of these


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


3

Simplify 7a x 2b.

85% Answer Correctly
14\( \frac{b}{a} \)
14ab
14a2b2
14\( \frac{a}{b} \)

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.

7a x 2b = (7 x 2) (a x b) = 14ab


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 6. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
24
162
108
224

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 2 x 9 x 6
v = 108

Solve -3a - 9a = -4a - 2y + 1 for a in terms of y.

34% Answer Correctly
-2\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
-\(\frac{1}{15}\)y + \(\frac{1}{15}\)
\(\frac{1}{8}\)y + \(\frac{1}{2}\)
7y + 1

Solution

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

-3a - 9y = -4a - 2y + 1
-3a = -4a - 2y + 1 + 9y
-3a + 4a = -2y + 1 + 9y
a = 7y + 1
