1

If AD = 16 and BD = 11, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
15
5
13
2

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 - 11
AB = 5


2

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

46% Answer Correctly
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-3

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

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(0.0) - (2.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-2}{4} \)
m = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

Which of the following statements about a triangle is not true?

58% Answer Correctly

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

area = ½bh

perimeter = sum of side lengths

sum of interior angles = 180°


Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.


4

If b = -1 and y = -3, what is the value of 5b(b - y)?

69% Answer Correctly

42
-324
-10

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

5b(b - y)
5(-1)(-1 + 3)
5(-1)(2)
(-5)(2)
-10


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 2. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
128π
25π
24π
567π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(22 x 6)
v = 24π
