Solve 9c + c = 7c + 4z + 9 for c in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{7}{10}\)z - \(\frac{3}{10}\)
-5\(\frac{1}{2}\)z + 4
\(\frac{1}{2}\)z + 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)z + 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)

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.

9c + z = 7c + 4z + 9
9c = 7c + 4z + 9 - z
9c - 7c = 4z + 9 - z
2c = 3z + 9
c = \( \frac{3z + 9}{2} \)
c = \( \frac{3z}{2} \) + \( \frac{9}{2} \)
c = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)z + 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 2. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
144π
12π
30π
182π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(22) + 2π(2 x 1)
sa = 2π(4) + 2π(2)
sa = (2 x 4)π + (2 x 2)π
sa = 8π + 4π
sa = 12π


3

If side x = 12cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
30cm
36cm
28cm
34cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 9cm + 9cm = 30cm


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
128
42
16
24

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 2 x 2 x 4
v = 16


5

Factor y2 + 5y - 36

54% Answer Correctly
(y - 4)(y - 9)
(y + 4)(y - 9)
(y - 4)(y + 9)
(y + 4)(y + 9)

Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -36 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal 5. For this problem, those two numbers are -4 and 9. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):

y2 + 5y - 36
y2 + (-4 + 9)y + (-4 x 9)
(y - 4)(y + 9)
