Solve 8c + 2c = 4c + 9x - 5 for c in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}\)x - \(\frac{3}{4}\)
x - \(\frac{1}{3}\)
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + \(\frac{1}{5}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (c) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

8c + 2x = 4c + 9x - 5
8c = 4c + 9x - 5 - 2x
8c - 4c = 9x - 5 - 2x
4c = 7x - 5
c = \( \frac{7x - 5}{4} \)
c = \( \frac{7x}{4} \) + \( \frac{-5}{4} \)
c = 1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)


2

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

84% Answer Correctly

Last

Inside

Odd

First


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.


3

What is 4a + 3a?

81% Answer Correctly
7a
1
a2
12a

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

4a + 3a = 7a


4

If a = 7, b = 5, c = 6, and d = 8, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
21
25
12
26

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 7 + 5 + 6 + 8
p = 26


5

If a = c = 1, b = d = 4, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
12
6
36
4

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 1 x 4
a = 4
