What is 8a2 + 3a2?

75% Answer Correctly
5a4
11a2
11a4
a24

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.

8a2 + 3a2 = 11a2


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 6. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
180π
49π
20π
150π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(62 x 5)
v = 180π


3

If angle a = 52° and angle b = 44° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
84°
61°
54°
60°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 52° - 44° = 84°


4

If a = c = 7, b = d = 8, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
45
56
7
27

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 8
a = 56


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 9) and (2, -3). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3
y = 3x - 1
y = -3x + 3
y = 3x + 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 3. 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, 9) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (9.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -3x + 3
