Solve -6c - 6c = 5c + 9y + 5 for c in terms of y.

34% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{3}{14}\)y + \(\frac{5}{14}\)
-1\(\frac{4}{11}\)y - \(\frac{5}{11}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{4}\)y + \(\frac{7}{8}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

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.

-6c - 6y = 5c + 9y + 5
-6c = 5c + 9y + 5 + 6y
-6c - 5c = 9y + 5 + 6y
-11c = 15y + 5
c = \( \frac{15y + 5}{-11} \)
c = \( \frac{15y}{-11} \) + \( \frac{5}{-11} \)
c = -1\(\frac{4}{11}\)y - \(\frac{5}{11}\)

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

4π r2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.

Simplify (9a)(4ab) - (8a2)(6b).

62% Answer Correctly
-12a2b
182ab2
84a2b
84ab2

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.

(9a)(4ab) - (8a2)(6b)
(9 x 4)(a x a x b) - (8 x 6)(a2 x b)
(36)(a1+1 x b) - (48)(a2b)
36a2b - 48a2b
-12a2b


4

Solve for z:
-9z - 9 > -4 + 9z

55% Answer Correctly
z > 4
z > -1
z > \(\frac{1}{5}\)
z > -\(\frac{5}{18}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

-9z - 9 > -4 + 9z
-9z > -4 + 9z + 9
-9z - 9z > -4 + 9
-18z > 5
z > \( \frac{5}{-18} \)
z > -\(\frac{5}{18}\)


5

If a = 6, b = 3, c = 1, and d = 3, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
15
13
24
18

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 6 + 3 + 1 + 3
p = 13
