To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

First

Odd

Inside

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


2

Simplify (5a)(7ab) - (2a2)(6b).

62% Answer Correctly
47a2b
-23ab2
96a2b
23a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(5a)(7ab) - (2a2)(6b)
(5 x 7)(a x a x b) - (2 x 6)(a2 x b)
(35)(a1+1 x b) - (12)(a2b)
35a2b - 12a2b
23a2b


3

equal angle

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


4

Find the value of c:
-7c + x = -8
-6c - 9x = 6

42% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{10}{11}\)
\(\frac{45}{68}\)
\(\frac{22}{23}\)
\(\frac{25}{34}\)

Solution

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

-7c + x = -8
x = -8 + 7c

then substitute the result (-8 - -7c) into the second equation:

-6c - 9(-8 + 7c) = 6
-6c + (-9 x -8) + (-9 x 7c) = 6
-6c + 72 - 63c = 6
-6c - 63c = 6 - 72
-69c = -66
c = \( \frac{-66}{-69} \)
c = \(\frac{22}{23}\)


5

If side a = 9, side b = 5, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{32} \)
\( \sqrt{106} \)
\( \sqrt{68} \)
5

Solution

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

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 92 + 52
c2 = 81 + 25
c2 = 106
c = \( \sqrt{106} \)
