Solve for y:
-y - 2 = \( \frac{y}{-8} \)

46% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{6}{17}\)
\(\frac{8}{13}\)
-2\(\frac{2}{7}\)
-2\(\frac{4}{19}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-y - 2 = \( \frac{y}{-8} \)
-8 x (-y - 2) = y
(-8 x -y) + (-8 x -2) = y
8y + 16 = y
8y + 16 - y = 0
8y - y = -16
7y = -16
y = \( \frac{-16}{7} \)
y = -2\(\frac{2}{7}\)


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

92% 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.


3

If a = c = 7, b = d = 3, and the blue angle = 53°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
63
45
9
21

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 3
a = 21


4

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π r2


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.


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
729π
320π
216π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 9)
v = 729π
