1

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

83% Answer Correctly

Odd

First

Last

Inside


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.


2

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

71% Answer Correctly
16π
19π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 16π


3

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

slope

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

x-intercept


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.


4

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

trisects

intersects

bisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, 6). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
3
-3
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, 6) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(6.0) - (0.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{6}{4} \)
m = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
