Simplify 6a x 3b.

86% Answer Correctly
18\( \frac{a}{b} \)
18ab
18a2b2
9ab

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.

6a x 3b = (6 x 3) (a x b) = 18ab


2

If a = 7, b = 4, c = 2, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
13
15
20
19

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 7 + 4 + 2 + 2
p = 15


3

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

41% Answer Correctly
y = 3x + 1
y = -3x - 3
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 4
y = -2x + 4

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -3. 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, 3) and (2, -9) so the slope becomes:

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

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -3x - 3


4

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

chord

radius

diameter

circumference


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
