1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 3 and radius (r) = 3. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
90π
36π
130π
120π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(32) + 2π(3 x 3)
sa = 2π(9) + 2π(9)
sa = (2 x 9)π + (2 x 9)π
sa = 18π + 18π
sa = 36π


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 2. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
120
108
54
20

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 6 x 9 x 2
v = 108


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 1). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = 3x - 4
y = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2
y = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 1
y = 2x - 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 -3. 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, 1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(1.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{8}{4} \)
m = 2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = 2x - 3


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

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2


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.


5

What is 3a - 6a?

79% Answer Correctly
a2
-3a2
-3a
-3

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.

3a - 6a = -3a
