1

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

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h


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.


2

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

70% Answer Correctly

all of these statements are correct

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.


3

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

polynomial

quadratic


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 17?

71% Answer Correctly
11π
17π
15π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 17π


5

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

51% Answer Correctly
258
306
88
150

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