1

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 8, c = 9, d = 4, and h = 5. What is the area?

50% Answer Correctly
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)
30
35
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(8 + 4)(5)
a = ½(12)(5)
a = ½(60) = \( \frac{60}{2} \)
a = 30


2

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

81% Answer Correctly

monomial

binomial

polynomial

quadratic


Solution

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


3

Simplify (y + 2)(y + 4)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 + 2y - 8
y2 - 2y - 8
y2 + 6y + 8
y2 - 6y + 8

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:

(y + 2)(y + 4)
(y x y) + (y x 4) + (2 x y) + (2 x 4)
y2 + 4y + 2y + 8
y2 + 6y + 8


4

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

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

trapezoid

quadrilateral


Solution

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


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
48
60
504
189

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 1 x 6 x 8
v = 48
