1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 5. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
100π
288π
25π
80π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(52 x 1)
v = 25π


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -1) and (2, -3). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 2
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0
y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 4
y = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 1

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 -2. 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, -1) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (-1.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-2}{4} \)
m = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 2


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

h2 x l2 x w2

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 8. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
224π
126π
12π
48π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(82) + 2π(8 x 6)
sa = 2π(64) + 2π(48)
sa = (2 x 64)π + (2 x 48)π
sa = 128π + 96π
sa = 224π


5

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
