Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

91% Answer Correctly

exponents

pairs

division

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)


2

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

circumference

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


3

If side x = 12cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 15cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
36cm
18cm
41cm
39cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 14cm + 15cm = 41cm


4

Solve for b:
-7b + 5 > \( \frac{b}{-6} \)

44% Answer Correctly
b > \(\frac{30}{41}\)
b > -\(\frac{9}{13}\)
b > 1\(\frac{1}{15}\)
b > \(\frac{8}{15}\)

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.

-7b + 5 > \( \frac{b}{-6} \)
-6 x (-7b + 5) > b
(-6 x -7b) + (-6 x 5) > b
42b - 30 > b
42b - 30 - b > 0
42b - b > 30
41b > 30
b > \( \frac{30}{41} \)
b > \(\frac{30}{41}\)


5

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

x-axis

all of these

origin

y-axis


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.
