1

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


2

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

70% Answer Correctly

right angle

equal angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

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


3

If a = 4, b = 2, c = 6, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
19
22
18
17

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 2 + 6 + 5
p = 17


4

Solve for y:
3y + 1 < 5 + 9y

55% Answer Correctly
y < -2
y < -\(\frac{5}{8}\)
y < -1
y < -\(\frac{2}{3}\)

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 + 1 < 5 + 9y
3y < 5 + 9y - 1
3y - 9y < 5 - 1
-6y < 4
y < \( \frac{4}{-6} \)
y < -\(\frac{2}{3}\)


5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 5, c = 8, d = 6, and h = 3. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
12
16\(\frac{1}{2}\)
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)
27\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(5 + 6)(3)
a = ½(11)(3)
a = ½(33) = \( \frac{33}{2} \)
a = 16\(\frac{1}{2}\)
