1

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

91% Answer Correctly

addition

division

exponents

pairs


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

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

y-intercept

x-intercept

slope


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.

If angle a = 21° and angle b = 69° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
95°
90°
112°
74°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 21° - 69° = 90°


4

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

radius

diameter

chord


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

quadratic

monomial

binomial

polynomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
