Factor y² - 4

54% Answer Correctly

	(y - 2)(y - 2)
	(y + 2)(y - 2)
	(y + 2)(y + 2)
	(y - 2)(y + 2)

Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -4 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal 0. For this problem, those two numbers are -2 and 2. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y²):

y² - 4
y² + (-2 + 2)y + (-2 x 2)
(y - 2)(y + 2)

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

	Inside
	First
	Last
	Odd

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.

If a = c = 5, b = d = 7, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly

	35
	16
	63
	28

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 7
a = 35

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 6. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly

	36π
	4π
	5π
	9π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h:

v = πr²h
v = π(6² x 1)
v = 36π

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

	trisects
	midpoints
	intersects
	bisects

Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
