1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 2 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
216π
320π
512π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 2)
v = 2π


2

Solve for c:
c2 - 9c + 49 = 5c + 1

48% Answer Correctly
-4 or -4
-2 or -4
6 or 8
7 or -8

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic expression that's not set to zero is to solve the equation so that it is set to zero:

c2 - 9c + 49 = 5c + 1
c2 - 9c + 49 - 1 = 5c
c2 - 9c - 5c + 48 = 0
c2 - 14c + 48 = 0

Next, factor the quadratic equation:

c2 - 14c + 48 = 0
(c - 6)(c - 8) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (c - 6) or (c - 8) must equal zero:

If (c - 6) = 0, c must equal 6
If (c - 8) = 0, c must equal 8

So the solution is that c = 6 or 8


3

Solve for z:
8z + 6 > \( \frac{z}{9} \)

44% Answer Correctly
z > \(\frac{27}{40}\)
z > -\(\frac{14}{27}\)
z > -\(\frac{21}{25}\)
z > -\(\frac{54}{71}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

8z + 6 > \( \frac{z}{9} \)
9 x (8z + 6) > z
(9 x 8z) + (9 x 6) > z
72z + 54 > z
72z + 54 - z > 0
72z - z > -54
71z > -54
z > \( \frac{-54}{71} \)
z > -\(\frac{54}{71}\)


4

If AD = 16 and BD = 12, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
4
9
13
6

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 = 16 - 12
AB = 4


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

bisects

intersects

trisects

midpoints


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
