Factor y2 + 15y + 56

54% Answer Correctly
(y - 7)(y - 8)
(y - 7)(y + 8)
(y + 7)(y - 8)
(y + 7)(y + 8)

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 56 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal 15. For this problem, those two numbers are 7 and 8. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):

y2 + 15y + 56
y2 + (7 + 8)y + (7 x 8)
(y + 7)(y + 8)


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 3. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
64π
288π
54π
175π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(32 x 6)
v = 54π


3

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


4

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

83% Answer Correctly

Inside

Last

First

Odd


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.


5

What is 7a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
11a
3a2
28a2
28a

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.

7a + 4a = 11a
