1

If angle a = 56° and angle b = 26° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
48°
92°
98°
84°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 56° - 26° = 98°


2

Solve for b:
b - 7 < -5 + 5b

55% Answer Correctly
b < -1\(\frac{2}{7}\)
b < \(\frac{7}{9}\)
b < -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
b < 3

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.

b - 7 < -5 + 5b
b < -5 + 5b + 7
b - 5b < -5 + 7
-4b < 2
b < \( \frac{2}{-4} \)
b < -\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

trapezoid

quadrilateral

triangle

rhombus


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


4

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

44% Answer Correctly
x > 1\(\frac{8}{13}\)
x > \(\frac{2}{19}\)
x > -\(\frac{8}{9}\)
x > -\(\frac{16}{57}\)

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.

-8x - 7 > \( \frac{x}{-8} \)
-8 x (-8x - 7) > x
(-8 x -8x) + (-8 x -7) > x
64x + 56 > x
64x + 56 - x > 0
64x - x > -56
63x > -56
x > \( \frac{-56}{63} \)
x > -\(\frac{8}{9}\)


5

Find the value of b:
-b + x = 2
-3b + 4x = -6

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{9}{13}\)
-\(\frac{50}{67}\)
-14
-6\(\frac{1}{6}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of x:

-b + x = 2
x = 2 + b

then substitute the result (2 - -1b) into the second equation:

-3b + 4(2 + b) = -6
-3b + (4 x 2) + (4 x b) = -6
-3b + 8 + 4b = -6
-3b + 4b = -6 - 8
b = -14
b = \( \frac{-14}{1} \)
b = -14
