Find the value of c:
4c + z = 7
-7c + z = -1

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{8}{11}\)
-2\(\frac{3}{16}\)
3\(\frac{1}{20}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of z:

4c + z = 7
z = 7 - 4c

then substitute the result (7 - 4c) into the second equation:

-7c + 1(7 - 4c) = -1
-7c + (1 x 7) + (1 x -4c) = -1
-7c + 7 - 4c = -1
-7c - 4c = -1 - 7
-11c = -8
c = \( \frac{-8}{-11} \)
c = \(\frac{8}{11}\)


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 6. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
12π
252π
18π
144π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(62 x 4)
v = 144π


3

What is 2a + 3a?

81% Answer Correctly
-a2
5a2
5
5a

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.

2a + 3a = 5a


4

Solve for x:
x2 - 5x + 6 = 0

58% Answer Correctly
9 or -1
9 or 6
6 or -3
2 or 3

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

x2 - 5x + 6 = 0
(x - 2)(x - 3) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (x - 2) or (x - 3) must equal zero:

If (x - 2) = 0, x must equal 2
If (x - 3) = 0, x must equal 3

So the solution is that x = 2 or 3


5

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 6?

70% Answer Correctly
81π

Solution

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

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{6}{2} \)
r = 3
a = πr2
a = π(32)
a = 9π
