A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

origin

3

Simplify (y + 1)(y + 4)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 - 3y - 4
y2 + 5y + 4
y2 + 3y - 4
y2 - 5y + 4

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:

(y + 1)(y + 4)
(y x y) + (y x 4) + (1 x y) + (1 x 4)
y2 + 4y + y + 4
y2 + 5y + 4


4

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

61% 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

If side x = 11cm, side y = 7cm, and side z = 5cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
29cm
34cm
39cm
23cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 7cm + 5cm = 23cm
