1

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 1?

71% Answer Correctly
20π
15π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 1π


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 5. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
125π
36π
320π
384π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(52 x 5)
v = 125π


3

What is 5a6 + 3a6?

75% Answer Correctly
8
8a6
8a12
a612

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.

5a6 + 3a6 = 8a6


4

If side a = 7, side b = 1, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{68} \)
\( \sqrt{82} \)
\( \sqrt{5} \)
\( \sqrt{50} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 72 + 12
c2 = 49 + 1
c2 = 50
c = \( \sqrt{50} \)


5

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

71% Answer Correctly

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

all of these statements are correct

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

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


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.
