1

Simplify (y + 7)(y + 4)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 + 11y + 28
y2 - 3y - 28
y2 - 11y + 28
y2 + 3y - 28

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 7)(y + 4)
(y x y) + (y x 4) + (7 x y) + (7 x 4)
y2 + 4y + 7y + 28
y2 + 11y + 28


2

If a = c = 7, b = d = 4, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
35
7
5
28

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 4
a = 28


3

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

87% Answer Correctly

division

exponents

addition

pairs


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)


4

What is 6a8 + 4a8?

74% Answer Correctly
10a8
24a8
2
a816

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.

6a8 + 4a8 = 10a8


5

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
