1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 1. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
40
144
46
160

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 1) + (2 x 1 x 5) + (2 x 3 x 5)
sa = (6) + (10) + (30)
sa = 46


2

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

radius

diameter

chord

circumference


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


3

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

84% Answer Correctly

Odd

Inside

First

Last


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.


4

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

75% Answer Correctly

normalizing

factoring

deconstructing

squaring


Solution

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


5

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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π r

a = π d

a = 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.
