1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 9. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
234π
20π
90π
252π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(92) + 2π(9 x 5)
sa = 2π(81) + 2π(45)
sa = (2 x 81)π + (2 x 45)π
sa = 162π + 90π
sa = 252π


2

Solve for a:
-3a + 8 > \( \frac{a}{6} \)

45% Answer Correctly
a > 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
a > 2
a > 1\(\frac{13}{36}\)
a > 2\(\frac{10}{19}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

-3a + 8 > \( \frac{a}{6} \)
6 x (-3a + 8) > a
(6 x -3a) + (6 x 8) > a
-18a + 48 > a
-18a + 48 - a > 0
-18a - a > -48
-19a > -48
a > \( \frac{-48}{-19} \)
a > 2\(\frac{10}{19}\)


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 7. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
729π
245π
72π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(72 x 5)
v = 245π


5

What is 9a - 3a?

80% Answer Correctly
6a
6a2
12
6

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.

9a - 3a = 6a
