1

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

3

4

2

5


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


2

Simplify (5a)(3ab) - (8a2)(2b).

62% Answer Correctly
ab2
80ab2
-a2b
-1a2b

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)(3ab) - (8a2)(2b)
(5 x 3)(a x a x b) - (8 x 2)(a2 x b)
(15)(a1+1 x b) - (16)(a2b)
15a2b - 16a2b
-1a2b


3

Solve for c:
-4c + 4 < -3 - 9c

55% Answer Correctly
c < 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
c < -1\(\frac{2}{5}\)
c < -1
c < \(\frac{1}{9}\)

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 < sign and the answer on the other.

-4c + 4 < -3 - 9c
-4c < -3 - 9c - 4
-4c + 9c < -3 - 4
5c < -7
c < \( \frac{-7}{5} \)
c < -1\(\frac{2}{5}\)


4

Simplify 6a x 9b.

86% Answer Correctly
54\( \frac{a}{b} \)
54\( \frac{b}{a} \)
54ab
15ab

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.

6a x 9b = (6 x 9) (a x b) = 54ab


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 5. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
26
126
262
146

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 3 x 5) + (2 x 5 x 6) + (2 x 3 x 6)
sa = (30) + (60) + (36)
sa = 126
