The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, 0). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 8) and (2, 0) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(0.0) - (8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2


3

If AD = 20 and BD = 16, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
9
15
4
18

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 20 - 16
AB = 4


4

Find the value of a:
-9a + y = -1
-8a + 4y = 9

41% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{3}{7}\)
-2\(\frac{2}{13}\)
\(\frac{13}{28}\)
5\(\frac{1}{6}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of a so solve the first equation in terms of y:

-9a + y = -1
y = -1 + 9a

then substitute the result (-1 - -9a) into the second equation:

-8a + 4(-1 + 9a) = 9
-8a + (4 x -1) + (4 x 9a) = 9
-8a - 4 + 36a = 9
-8a + 36a = 9 + 4
28a = 13
a = \( \frac{13}{28} \)
a = \(\frac{13}{28}\)


5

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

69% Answer Correctly
9π
25π
2π
8π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π
