What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 10?

69% Answer Correctly
49π
25π
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{10}{2} \)
r = 5
a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


2

Simplify (5a)(5ab) + (8a2)(4b).

65% Answer Correctly
57a2b
7ab2
120a2b
7a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(5a)(5ab) + (8a2)(4b)
(5 x 5)(a x a x b) + (8 x 4)(a2 x b)
(25)(a1+1 x b) + (32)(a2b)
25a2b + 32a2b
57a2b


3

What is 4a5 + 9a5?

75% Answer Correctly
-5
13a5
36a5
13a10

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.

4a5 + 9a5 = 13a5


4

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.


5

If side a = 4, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{90} \)
5
\( \sqrt{50} \)
\( \sqrt{34} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 32
c2 = 16 + 9
c2 = 25
c = \( \sqrt{25} \)
c = 5
