1

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

83% Answer Correctly

Last

First

Inside

Odd
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.

2

If the base of this triangle is 4 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
60
78
18
71\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 4 x 9 = \( \frac{36}{2} \) = 18

3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

deconstructing

factoring

squaring
Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.

4

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

division

exponents

pairs

addition
Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)

5

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π d2

a = π r
Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.
