1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
245π
96π
225π
405π
Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 6)
v = 96π

2

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

polynomial

quadratic
Solution

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

3

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

71% Answer Correctly

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

all of these statements are correct

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent
Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.

4

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

84% Answer Correctly

Last

Inside

Odd

First
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.

5

Simplify 2a x 3b.

86% Answer Correctly
6a2b2
6\( \frac{b}{a} \)
6ab
5ab
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.

2a x 3b = (2 x 3) (a x b) = 6ab
