What is 5a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
a2
9a2
9a
20a2

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.

5a + 4a = 9a


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

origin

y-axis

all of these

x-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


3

If side x = 15cm, side y = 7cm, and side z = 14cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
34cm
36cm
22cm
37cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 15cm + 7cm + 14cm = 36cm


4

Solve for b:
-5b - 2 < \( \frac{b}{-2} \)

44% Answer Correctly
b < \(\frac{35}{48}\)
b < -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
b < 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)
b < -\(\frac{4}{9}\)

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.

-5b - 2 < \( \frac{b}{-2} \)
-2 x (-5b - 2) < b
(-2 x -5b) + (-2 x -2) < b
10b + 4 < b
10b + 4 - b < 0
10b - b < -4
9b < -4
b < \( \frac{-4}{9} \)
b < -\(\frac{4}{9}\)


5
