Simplify 6a x 4b.

86% Answer Correctly
24\( \frac{a}{b} \)
24a2b2
10ab
24ab

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 4b = (6 x 4) (a x b) = 24ab


2

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

diameter

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


3

If a = c = 5, b = d = 9, and the blue angle = 57°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
45
35
16
20

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 9
a = 45


4

Solve 2a + 3a = -7a + x - 9 for a in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)x + \(\frac{1}{3}\)
-\(\frac{2}{5}\)x + 1
-\(\frac{2}{9}\)x - 1
x + 2\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (a) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

2a + 3x = -7a + x - 9
2a = -7a + x - 9 - 3x
2a + 7a = x - 9 - 3x
9a = -2x - 9
a = \( \frac{-2x - 9}{9} \)
a = \( \frac{-2x}{9} \) + \( \frac{-9}{9} \)
a = -\(\frac{2}{9}\)x - 1


5

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 8, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
36
84
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)
40

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 8 = \( \frac{72}{2} \) = 36
