1

If side x = 12cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 5cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
24cm
31cm
27cm
30cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 14cm + 5cm = 31cm


2

Solve 5c + 2c = -2c - 3z - 7 for c in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{5}{7}\)z - 1
-\(\frac{2}{15}\)z + \(\frac{8}{15}\)
-6z - 5
1\(\frac{1}{5}\)z - \(\frac{7}{10}\)

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 + 2z = -2c - 3z - 7
5c = -2c - 3z - 7 - 2z
5c + 2c = -3z - 7 - 2z
7c = -5z - 7
c = \( \frac{-5z - 7}{7} \)
c = \( \frac{-5z}{7} \) + \( \frac{-7}{7} \)
c = -\(\frac{5}{7}\)z - 1


3

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

chord

radius

circumference

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


4

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

division

addition

pairs

exponents


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)


5

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

67% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


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.
