1

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

parallel

equal length

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


2

If b = 3 and z = 9, what is the value of -3b(b - z)?

68% Answer Correctly
-448
84
54
-176

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

-3b(b - z)
-3(3)(3 - 9)
-3(3)(-6)
(-9)(-6)
54


3

Simplify (2a)(5ab) + (3a2)(2b).

65% Answer Correctly
16a2b
4ab2
35a2b
4a2b

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.

(2a)(5ab) + (3a2)(2b)
(2 x 5)(a x a x b) + (3 x 2)(a2 x b)
(10)(a1+1 x b) + (6)(a2b)
10a2b + 6a2b
16a2b


4

If a = c = 5, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
27
40
45
18

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 9
a = 45


5

What is 5a + 2a?

80% Answer Correctly
7a
a2
3a2
7a2

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 + 2a = 7a
