Solve 5c - 7c = 4c - z - 7 for c in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{3}{14}\)z + \(\frac{9}{14}\)
6z - 7
-\(\frac{1}{12}\)z + \(\frac{1}{12}\)
2z - \(\frac{2}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (c) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

5c - 7z = 4c - z - 7
5c = 4c - z - 7 + 7z
5c - 4c = -z - 7 + 7z
c = 6z - 7


2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 9) and (2, -3). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 9) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (9.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


3

If the base of this triangle is 1 and the height is 3, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
42
36
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
18

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 1 x 3 = \( \frac{3}{2} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

If side x = 10cm, side y = 5cm, and side z = 5cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

83% Answer Correctly
34cm
20cm
21cm
36cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 10cm + 5cm + 5cm = 20cm


5

81% Answer Correctly

monomial

polynomial

quadratic

binomial


Solution

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