1

What is 2a + 9a?

81% Answer Correctly
11a2
-7
11a
18a2

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.

2a + 9a = 11a


2

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r

c = π r2

c = π d2

c = π d


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


3

Simplify (y - 3)(y - 4)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 + y - 12
y2 + 7y + 12
y2 - 7y + 12
y2 - y - 12

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:

(y - 3)(y - 4)
(y x y) + (y x -4) + (-3 x y) + (-3 x -4)
y2 - 4y - 3y + 12
y2 - 7y + 12


4

Solve -7c - 3c = -9c + 2x + 7 for c in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{1}{3}\)x + 3
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - \(\frac{3}{14}\)
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-\(\frac{4}{9}\)x + \(\frac{2}{3}\)

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.

-7c - 3x = -9c + 2x + 7
-7c = -9c + 2x + 7 + 3x
-7c + 9c = 2x + 7 + 3x
2c = 5x + 7
c = \( \frac{5x + 7}{2} \)
c = \( \frac{5x}{2} \) + \( \frac{7}{2} \)
c = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)


5

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
