1

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.


2

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

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h

2(π r2) + 2π rh

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.


3

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

70% Answer Correctly

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

all of these statements are correct

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 16?

71% Answer Correctly
20π
19π
16π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 16π


5
