1

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

88% Answer Correctly

addition

pairs

division

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.)


2

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

90% Answer Correctly

2

4

5

3


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 5. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
48π
80π
110π
24π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(52) + 2π(5 x 6)
sa = 2π(25) + 2π(30)
sa = (2 x 25)π + (2 x 30)π
sa = 50π + 60π
sa = 110π


4

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, -4). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
1
2
3
-3

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, 8) and (2, -4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-4.0) - (8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


5

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

circumference

diameter

chord

radius


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).
