What is 9a - 6a?

79% Answer Correctly
15a2
3a
54a2
54a

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.

9a - 6a = 3a


2

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

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical


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).


3

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

52% Answer Correctly

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h

π r2h2

4π r2


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.


4

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

83% Answer Correctly

Last

Odd

Inside

First


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.


5

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

x-intercept

slope


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.
