2

What is 6a + 2a?

81% Answer Correctly
8a
4a2
12a
8a2

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.

6a + 2a = 8a


3

Solve for a:
-9a + 4 < \( \frac{a}{4} \)

44% Answer Correctly
a < \(\frac{9}{23}\)
a < \(\frac{16}{37}\)
a < 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)
a < -1\(\frac{6}{29}\)

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.

-9a + 4 < \( \frac{a}{4} \)
4 x (-9a + 4) < a
(4 x -9a) + (4 x 4) < a
-36a + 16 < a
-36a + 16 - a < 0
-36a - a < -16
-37a < -16
a < \( \frac{-16}{-37} \)
a < \(\frac{16}{37}\)


4

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

equilateral and isosceles

isosceles and right

equilateral, isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.


5

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

y-axis

x-axis

origin

all of these


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.
