What is 2a8 + 4a8?

76% Answer Correctly
a816
6a16
6a8
8a16

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.

2a8 + 4a8 = 6a8


2

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

84% Answer Correctly

Odd

First

Last

Inside


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.


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 5) and (2, -5). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
2
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1
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, 5) and (2, -5) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-5.0) - (5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-10}{4} \)
m = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

origin

y-axis

x-axis

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.


5

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

4π r2

π r2h

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.
