What is 9a + 7a?

81% Answer Correctly
a2
16a
63a
2a2

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.

9a + 7a = 16a


2

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
252
192
405
50

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 6 x 8
v = 192


4

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

75% Answer Correctly

normalizing

factoring

squaring

deconstructing


Solution

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


5

What is 3a - 8a?

80% Answer Correctly
-5a
11a2
24a2
-5

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 - 8a = -5a
