1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 2. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
2
12
125
18

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 1 x 6 x 2
v = 12


2

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

41% Answer Correctly

x-intercept

slope

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

y-intercept


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.


3

If a = c = 3, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
27
3
16
6

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 9
a = 27


4

If side x = 12cm, side y = 8cm, and side z = 7cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
29cm
27cm
30cm
31cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 8cm + 7cm = 27cm


5

What is 8a5 - 7a5?

73% Answer Correctly
15a10
1a5
15
56a10

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.

8a5 - 7a5 = 1a5
