1

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

91% Answer Correctly

division

pairs

exponents

addition


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

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 4?

71% Answer Correctly
12π
16π
24π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 4π


3

A right angle measures:

91% Answer Correctly

45°

90°

360°

180°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


4

What is 4a + 2a?

81% Answer Correctly
6a
6a2
6
8a

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 + 2a = 6a


5

Solve -3b - 5b = 4b + 3x - 1 for b in terms of x.

35% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{2}{11}\)x - \(\frac{6}{11}\)
1\(\frac{1}{8}\)x - \(\frac{1}{8}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{7}\)x + \(\frac{1}{7}\)
x + \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

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