If a = 5 and y = 6, what is the value of -3a(a - y)?

68% Answer Correctly
-648
15
216
0

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.)

-3a(a - y)
-3(5)(5 - 6)
-3(5)(-1)
(-15)(-1)
15

Simplify (8a)(9ab) - (3a2)(8b).

62% Answer Correctly
187a2b
48a2b
96a2b
-48ab2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(8a)(9ab) - (3a2)(8b)
(8 x 9)(a x a x b) - (3 x 8)(a2 x b)
(72)(a1+1 x b) - (24)(a2b)
72a2b - 24a2b
48a2b

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

53% Answer Correctly

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h2

π r2h

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.


4

If a = c = 9, b = d = 2, and the blue angle = 57°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
54
30
18
56

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 9 x 2
a = 18


5

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

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

vertical, supplementary


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).
