1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -9) and (2, 3). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-2
3
1

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, -9) and (2, 3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(3.0) - (-9.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3


2

What is 5a - 7a?

80% Answer Correctly
-2
-2a
35a2
12

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 - 7a = -2a


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 8 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
234π
180π
66π
18π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 8)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(8)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 8)π
sa = 2π + 16π
sa = 18π

91% Answer Correctly

3

2

4

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

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).
