1

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 2, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
18
9
56
66

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 2 = \( \frac{18}{2} \) = 9


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 9. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
12
270
210
54

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 6 x 9
v = 270


3

If a = 4, b = 2, c = 6, and d = 4, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
22
17
16
26

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 2 + 6 + 4
p = 16


4

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 7) and (2, -3). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2
y = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3
y = 2x + 2
y = x + 3

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is 2. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 7) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-10}{4} \)
m = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2
