1

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

parallel

equal length

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


2

Simplify (3a)(8ab) + (7a2)(2b).

65% Answer Correctly
38a2b
38ab2
99a2b
10ab2

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.

(3a)(8ab) + (7a2)(2b)
(3 x 8)(a x a x b) + (7 x 2)(a2 x b)
(24)(a1+1 x b) + (14)(a2b)
24a2b + 14a2b
38a2b


3

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

problem

expression

equation

formula


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.


4

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 1) and (2, -3). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1
-3
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-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, 1) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (1.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-4}{4} \)
m = -1
