1

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

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h

4π r2

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh


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.


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 2 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
48π
50π
32π
180π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 2)
v = 32π


3

Solve for y:
2y - 7 = 2 - 8y

59% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{9}{10}\)
-\(\frac{4}{7}\)
\(\frac{4}{9}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

2y - 7 = 2 - 8y
2y = 2 - 8y + 7
2y + 8y = 2 + 7
10y = 9
y = \( \frac{9}{10} \)
y = \(\frac{9}{10}\)


4

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 9, c = 8, d = 8, and h = 4. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
24
7\(\frac{1}{2}\)
22
34

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(9 + 8)(4)
a = ½(17)(4)
a = ½(68) = \( \frac{68}{2} \)
a = 34


5

Find the value of b:
5b + x = 2
6b - 7x = 3

42% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{2}{5}\)
7
\(\frac{17}{41}\)
14\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of x:

5b + x = 2
x = 2 - 5b

then substitute the result (2 - 5b) into the second equation:

6b - 7(2 - 5b) = 3
6b + (-7 x 2) + (-7 x -5b) = 3
6b - 14 + 35b = 3
6b + 35b = 3 + 14
41b = 17
b = \( \frac{17}{41} \)
b = \(\frac{17}{41}\)
