Simplify (6a)(2ab) + (9a2)(7b).

65% Answer Correctly
75ab2
128ab2
75a2b
-51a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(6a)(2ab) + (9a2)(7b)
(6 x 2)(a x a x b) + (9 x 7)(a2 x b)
(12)(a1+1 x b) + (63)(a2b)
12a2b + 63a2b
75a2b


2

What is 3a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
7a
7a2
a2
-1

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.

3a + 4a = 7a


3

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

quadratic

polynomial


Solution

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


4

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


5

Simplify 9a x 7b.

86% Answer Correctly
63\( \frac{a}{b} \)
63ab
63a2b2
63\( \frac{b}{a} \)

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

9a x 7b = (9 x 7) (a x b) = 63ab
