If c = 3 and z = 8, what is the value of -3c(c - z)?

69% Answer Correctly

	-160
	-20
	45
	108

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.)

-3c(c - z)
-3(3)(3 - 8)
-3(3)(-5)
(-9)(-5)

If AD = 24 and BD = 20, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly

	7
	5
	4
	20

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 = 24 - 20
AB = 4

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

71% Answer Correctly

	all of these statements are correct
	you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents
	you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent
	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.

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

	isosceles and right
	equilateral and right
	equilateral and isosceles
	equilateral, isosceles and right

Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

	origin
	y-axis
	all of these
	x-axis

Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.
