1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 6) and (2, -6). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1
-3
2
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

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, 6) and (2, -6) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-6.0) - (6.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-12}{4} \)
m = -3


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 9. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
150
212
214
58

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 3 x 9) + (2 x 9 x 4) + (2 x 3 x 4)
sa = (54) + (72) + (24)
sa = 150


3

If angle a = 70° and angle b = 53° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
110°
154°
127°
112°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 70° - 53° = 57°

So, d° = 53° + 57° = 110°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 70° = 110°


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 2. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
567
48
108
168

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 6 x 9 x 2
v = 108


5

What is 5a + 5a?

81% Answer Correctly
10a
2
a2
10

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.

5a + 5a = 10a
