1

If a = c = 6, b = d = 7, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
42
9
14
21

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 7
a = 42


2

Solve for b:
-8b - 8 > \( \frac{b}{7} \)

44% Answer Correctly
b > \(\frac{24}{31}\)
b > -\(\frac{56}{57}\)
b > 1
b > 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

-8b - 8 > \( \frac{b}{7} \)
7 x (-8b - 8) > b
(7 x -8b) + (7 x -8) > b
-56b - 56 > b
-56b - 56 - b > 0
-56b - b > 56
-57b > 56
b > \( \frac{56}{-57} \)
b > -\(\frac{56}{57}\)


3

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

polynomial

quadratic

monomial

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


4

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h

4π r2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


5

If a = -1 and y = 1, what is the value of 5a(a - y)?

68% Answer Correctly
40
132
-108
10

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

5a(a - y)
5(-1)(-1 - 1)
5(-1)(-2)
(-5)(-2)
