1

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

exponents

addition

division

pairs


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)


2

If side x = 8cm, side y = 8cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
31cm
36cm
38cm
28cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 8cm + 8cm + 12cm = 28cm


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


4

Simplify (9a)(2ab) - (3a2)(6b).

62% Answer Correctly
0a2b
99ab2
36a2b
b2

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.

(9a)(2ab) - (3a2)(6b)
(9 x 2)(a x a x b) - (3 x 6)(a2 x b)
(18)(a1+1 x b) - (18)(a2b)
18a2b - 18a2b
0a2b


5

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

expression

equation

problem

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.
