Simplify (3a)(4ab) - (2a2)(9b).

63% Answer Correctly
77ab2
-6a2b
30a2b
6ab2

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.

(3a)(4ab) - (2a2)(9b)
(3 x 4)(a x a x b) - (2 x 9)(a2 x b)
(12)(a1+1 x b) - (18)(a2b)
12a2b - 18a2b
-6a2b


2

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


3

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

92% Answer Correctly

x-axis

y-axis

origin

all of these


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


4

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

71% Answer Correctly

parallel

equal length

equal angle

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


5

What is 9a6 + 6a6?

76% Answer Correctly
15a6
54a6
15
15a12

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.

9a6 + 6a6 = 15a6
