1

Solve for c:
-9c - 6 < -9 + 3c

55% Answer Correctly
c < -\(\frac{1}{9}\)
c < \(\frac{3}{4}\)
c < -\(\frac{2}{7}\)
c < \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

-9c - 6 < -9 + 3c
-9c < -9 + 3c + 6
-9c - 3c < -9 + 6
-12c < -3
c < \( \frac{-3}{-12} \)
c < \(\frac{1}{4}\)


2

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


3

If c = 6 and x = -3, what is the value of -3c(c - x)?

68% Answer Correctly
-384
-162
18
90

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 - x)
-3(6)(6 + 3)
-3(6)(9)
(-18)(9)
-162


4

Simplify (y + 9)(y + 8)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 - y - 72
y2 + y - 72
y2 - 17y + 72
y2 + 17y + 72

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 + 9)(y + 8)
(y x y) + (y x 8) + (9 x y) + (9 x 8)
y2 + 8y + 9y + 72
y2 + 17y + 72


5

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 15?

71% Answer Correctly
12π
15π
14π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 15π
