Find the value of c:
-8c + z = 2
-2c - 3z = -2

42% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{2}{13}\)
-1\(\frac{2}{19}\)
-\(\frac{3}{8}\)
-8\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of z:

-8c + z = 2
z = 2 + 8c

then substitute the result (2 - -8c) into the second equation:

-2c - 3(2 + 8c) = -2
-2c + (-3 x 2) + (-3 x 8c) = -2
-2c - 6 - 24c = -2
-2c - 24c = -2 + 6
-26c = 4
c = \( \frac{4}{-26} \)
c = -\(\frac{2}{13}\)

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
80π
16π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 4)
v = 4π


3

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

division

addition

exponents

pairs


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

chord

radius

circumference

diameter


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).


5

What is 6a2 - 9a2?

73% Answer Correctly
-3a4
54a4
-3a2
a24

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.

6a2 - 9a2 = -3a2
