Simplify (8a)(2ab) + (9a2)(3b).

65% Answer Correctly
120ab2
43a2b
11ab2
43ab2

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.

(8a)(2ab) + (9a2)(3b)
(8 x 2)(a x a x b) + (9 x 3)(a2 x b)
(16)(a1+1 x b) + (27)(a2b)
16a2b + 27a2b
43a2b


2

Simplify (y + 3)(y - 9)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 + 6y - 27
y2 - 6y - 27
y2 - 12y + 27
y2 + 12y + 27

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:

(y + 3)(y - 9)
(y x y) + (y x -9) + (3 x y) + (3 x -9)
y2 - 9y + 3y - 27
y2 - 6y - 27


3

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

vertical, supplementary


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


4

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

90% Answer Correctly

3

4

2

5


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


5

If angle a = 51° and angle b = 26° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
86°
116°
103°
112°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 51° - 26° = 103°
