Simplify (8a)(3ab) + (2a2)(6b).

65% Answer Correctly
88ab2
88a2b
36a2b
-12ab2

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.

(8a)(3ab) + (2a2)(6b)
(8 x 3)(a x a x b) + (2 x 6)(a2 x b)
(24)(a1+1 x b) + (12)(a2b)
24a2b + 12a2b
36a2b


2

If a = 8, b = 3, c = 8, and d = 9, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
28
21
19
22

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 8 + 3 + 8 + 9
p = 28


3

If angle a = 21° and angle b = 59° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
70°
93°
100°
53°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 21° - 59° = 100°


4

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

c2 + a2

a2 - c2

c2 - a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


5

What is 9a5 + 6a5?

76% Answer Correctly
15a5
3
54a10
3a10

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.

9a5 + 6a5 = 15a5
