If AD = 19 and BD = 14, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
10
17
5
2

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 19 - 14
AB = 5

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If w° = 32, what is the value of b°?

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with w° = 32, the value of b° is 148.

If a = -8 and y = -4, what is the value of 8a(a - y)?

68% Answer Correctly
64
180
-160
256

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

8a(a - y)
8(-8)(-8 + 4)
8(-8)(-4)
(-64)(-4)
256

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 3. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly

8
120
14

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 8 x 3
v = 120

What is 2a7 - 2a7?

73% Answer Correctly
a714
0a7
4a7
4

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.

2a7 - 2a7 = 0a7
