What is 8a - 4a?

79% Answer Correctly
4
4a
12
32a

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.

8a - 4a = 4a


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
56
63
96
2

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 2 x 6 x 8
v = 96


3

If a = c = 8, b = d = 1, and the blue angle = 74°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
4
8
21
16

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 1
a = 8


4

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

49% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

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

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


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).

Simplify (4a)(8ab) - (6a2)(8b).

62% Answer Correctly
16ab2
80a2b
80ab2
-16a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(4a)(8ab) - (6a2)(8b)
(4 x 8)(a x a x b) - (6 x 8)(a2 x b)
(32)(a1+1 x b) - (48)(a2b)
32a2b - 48a2b
-16a2b
