1

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

quadratic

monomial

binomial

polynomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


2

What is 4a - 5a?

80% Answer Correctly
20a2
a2
-1a
9

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.

4a - 5a = -1a


3

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

parallel

equal angle

right angle

equal length


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


4

Solve 4c - c = 6c + 3x - 2 for c in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)x + 2
2x + 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)
-\(\frac{2}{9}\)x - \(\frac{2}{9}\)
-2x + 1

Solution

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

4c - x = 6c + 3x - 2
4c = 6c + 3x - 2 + x
4c - 6c = 3x - 2 + x
-2c = 4x - 2
c = \( \frac{4x - 2}{-2} \)
c = \( \frac{4x}{-2} \) + \( \frac{-2}{-2} \)
c = -2x + 1


5

If c = -4 and y = 9, what is the value of -9c(c - y)?

68% Answer Correctly
350
-108
-468
144

Solution

To solve this equation, 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.)

-9c(c - y)
-9(-4)(-4 - 9)
-9(-4)(-13)
(36)(-13)
-468
