1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 3. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
168
315
12
36

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 7 x 8 x 3
v = 168


2

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


3

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

70% Answer Correctly

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

all of these statements are correct

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.


4

If a = 2, b = 3, c = 8, and d = 9, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
22
21
30
16

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 2 + 3 + 8 + 9
p = 22


5

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

76% Answer Correctly

a = π d

a = π r

a = π r2

a = π d2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.
