1

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

deconstructing

factoring

normalizing

squaring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 7. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
182
212
314
208

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 3 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 7) + (2 x 3 x 7)
sa = (42) + (98) + (42)
sa = 182


3

Simplify 3a x 8b.

85% Answer Correctly
24ab
24a2b2
24\( \frac{a}{b} \)
11ab

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

3a x 8b = (3 x 8) (a x b) = 24ab


4

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d

c = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


5

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 16?

71% Answer Correctly
32π
18π
16π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 16π
