Solve for b:
-2b - 3 < \( \frac{b}{-9} \)

44% Answer Correctly
b < -1\(\frac{7}{17}\)
b < -1\(\frac{10}{17}\)
b < 2\(\frac{2}{5}\)
b < -\(\frac{2}{13}\)

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.

-2b - 3 < \( \frac{b}{-9} \)
-9 x (-2b - 3) < b
(-9 x -2b) + (-9 x -3) < b
18b + 27 < b
18b + 27 - b < 0
18b - b < -27
17b < -27
b < \( \frac{-27}{17} \)
b < -1\(\frac{10}{17}\)


2

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute


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).


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 5. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
100π
224π
132π
216π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(52) + 2π(5 x 5)
sa = 2π(25) + 2π(25)
sa = (2 x 25)π + (2 x 25)π
sa = 50π + 50π
sa = 100π


4

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

52% Answer Correctly

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h

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.


5

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

76% Answer Correctly

equation

formula

expression

problem


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.
