Simplify 7a x 8b.

86% Answer Correctly
56\( \frac{b}{a} \)
56ab
56a2b2
56\( \frac{a}{b} \)

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.

7a x 8b = (7 x 8) (a x b) = 56ab


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 5?

71% Answer Correctly
24π
11π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 5π


3

Solve for y:
8y + 8 = \( \frac{y}{-4} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{32}{33}\)
\(\frac{2}{5}\)
-1\(\frac{10}{71}\)
\(\frac{7}{24}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

8y + 8 = \( \frac{y}{-4} \)
-4 x (8y + 8) = y
(-4 x 8y) + (-4 x 8) = y
-32y - 32 = y
-32y - 32 - y = 0
-32y - y = 32
-33y = 32
y = \( \frac{32}{-33} \)
y = -\(\frac{32}{33}\)


4

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 5) and (2, -7). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-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, 5) and (2, -7) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-7.0) - (5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


5

Solve for z:
-9z + 2 = -3 + 9z

59% Answer Correctly
9
-\(\frac{4}{7}\)
\(\frac{4}{7}\)
\(\frac{5}{18}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

-9z + 2 = -3 + 9z
-9z = -3 + 9z - 2
-9z - 9z = -3 - 2
-18z = -5
z = \( \frac{-5}{-18} \)
z = \(\frac{5}{18}\)
