Solve 5c - 7c = -3c + 8z + 2 for c in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{7}{8}\)z + \(\frac{1}{4}\)
2\(\frac{1}{4}\)z + 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)
-z + 3
-\(\frac{1}{9}\)z - \(\frac{4}{9}\)

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.

5c - 7z = -3c + 8z + 2
5c = -3c + 8z + 2 + 7z
5c + 3c = 8z + 2 + 7z
8c = 15z + 2
c = \( \frac{15z + 2}{8} \)
c = \( \frac{15z}{8} \) + \( \frac{2}{8} \)
c = 1\(\frac{7}{8}\)z + \(\frac{1}{4}\)

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

74% Answer Correctly

squaring

factoring

deconstructing

normalizing


Solution

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


3

Simplify (y + 5)(y + 9)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 - 14y + 45
y2 + 14y + 45
y2 - 4y - 45
y2 + 4y - 45

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 5)(y + 9)
(y x y) + (y x 9) + (5 x y) + (5 x 9)
y2 + 9y + 5y + 45
y2 + 14y + 45


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 5. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
272π
168π
100π
32π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(52) + 2π(5 x 5)
sa = 2π(25) + 2π(25)
sa = (2 x 25)π + (2 x 25)π
sa = 50π + 50π
sa = 100π


5

If angle a = 59° and angle b = 67° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
64°
54°
71°
61°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 59° - 67° = 54°
