Find the value of b:
3b + y = 5
4b + 5y = -7

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{5}\)
-\(\frac{11}{17}\)
1\(\frac{2}{5}\)
2\(\frac{10}{11}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of y:

3b + y = 5
y = 5 - 3b

then substitute the result (5 - 3b) into the second equation:

4b + 5(5 - 3b) = -7
4b + (5 x 5) + (5 x -3b) = -7
4b + 25 - 15b = -7
4b - 15b = -7 - 25
-11b = -32
b = \( \frac{-32}{-11} \)
b = 2\(\frac{10}{11}\)


2

If AD = 24 and BD = 17, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
14
7
4
15

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 24 - 17
AB = 7

4

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π d2

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.
