1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 3 and radius (r) = 7. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
384π
16π
147π
256π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(72 x 3)
v = 147π


2

Simplify (y + 8)(y + 9)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 - y - 72
y2 + 17y + 72
y2 - 17y + 72
y2 + y - 72

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 + 8)(y + 9)
(y x y) + (y x 9) + (8 x y) + (8 x 9)
y2 + 9y + 8y + 72
y2 + 17y + 72


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -1) and (2, -7). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
3
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-2

Solution

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, -1) and (2, -7) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-7.0) - (-1.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-6}{4} \)
m = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

If a = c = 4, b = d = 5, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
14
15
9
20

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 5
a = 20


5

What is 3a + 2a?

81% Answer Correctly
a2
5
5a
6a

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.

3a + 2a = 5a
