1

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

53% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles

equilateral, isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.


2

Simplify 2a x 3b.

85% Answer Correctly
6\( \frac{b}{a} \)
5ab
6ab
6\( \frac{a}{b} \)

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.

2a x 3b = (2 x 3) (a x b) = 6ab


3

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

Inside

First

Odd

Last


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


4

Solve for y:
3y + 7 < \( \frac{y}{-5} \)

44% Answer Correctly
y < 1\(\frac{11}{34}\)
y < \(\frac{18}{55}\)
y < -2\(\frac{3}{16}\)
y < -\(\frac{18}{19}\)

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.

3y + 7 < \( \frac{y}{-5} \)
-5 x (3y + 7) < y
(-5 x 3y) + (-5 x 7) < y
-15y - 35 < y
-15y - 35 - y < 0
-15y - y < 35
-16y < 35
y < \( \frac{35}{-16} \)
y < -2\(\frac{3}{16}\)


5
