What is 6a - 8a?

79% Answer Correctly
48a
-2a
-2
a2

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.

6a - 8a = -2a


2

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

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

intersects

trisects

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.


3

If a = c = 3, b = d = 6, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
42
18
28
36

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 6
a = 18


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
18
24
126
180

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 9 x 4
v = 180


5

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

c2 - a2

a2 - c2

c2 + a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
