1

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

formula

equation

problem

expression


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.


2

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


3

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d2

a = π d

a = π r


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

quadratic

monomial

polynomial

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -8) and (2, 0). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1
2
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -8) and (2, 0) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(0.0) - (-8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{8}{4} \)
m = 2
