2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 4. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
98
254
198
58

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 7 x 4) + (2 x 4 x 9) + (2 x 7 x 9)
sa = (56) + (72) + (126)
sa = 254


3

Simplify (y - 7)(y - 8)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 - 15y + 56
y2 + y - 56
y2 + 15y + 56
y2 - y - 56

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 - 8)
(y x y) + (y x -8) + (-7 x y) + (-7 x -8)
y2 - 8y - 7y + 56
y2 - 15y + 56


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

polynomial

monomial

quadratic

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


5

What is 7a5 + 6a5?

75% Answer Correctly
13a5
a510
42a10

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.

7a5 + 6a5 = 13a5
