What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 1?

71% Answer Correctly
15π
14π
18π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 1π


2

Simplify (5a)(7ab) + (5a2)(4b).

66% Answer Correctly
55a2b
108a2b
-15a2b
55ab2

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.

(5a)(7ab) + (5a2)(4b)
(5 x 7)(a x a x b) + (5 x 4)(a2 x b)
(35)(a1+1 x b) + (20)(a2b)
35a2b + 20a2b
55a2b


3

Simplify (y + 7)(y + 2)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 + 5y - 14
y2 - 5y - 14
y2 - 9y + 14
y2 + 9y + 14

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 + 7)(y + 2)
(y x y) + (y x 2) + (7 x y) + (7 x 2)
y2 + 2y + 7y + 14
y2 + 9y + 14

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -6). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

42% Answer Correctly
y = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
y = x + 2
y = -2x - 2
y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -2. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -6) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-6.0) - (2.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2x - 2


5

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

47% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

circumference

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).
