Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?
exponents |
|
division |
|
addition |
|
pairs |
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.)
A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:
2(π r2) + 2π rh |
|
π r2h2 |
|
π r2h |
|
4π r2 |
A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.
Factor y2 + 3y - 10
| (y + 2)(y + 5) | |
| (y + 2)(y - 5) | |
| (y - 2)(y - 5) | |
| (y - 2)(y + 5) |
To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -10 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal 3. For this problem, those two numbers are -2 and 5. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):
y2 + 3y - 10
y2 + (-2 + 5)y + (-2 x 5)
(y - 2)(y + 5)
If the area of this square is 16, what is the length of one of the diagonals?
| 4\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 9\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 5\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{2} \) |
To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:
a = s2
so the length of one side of the square is:
s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) = 4
The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 42
c2 = 32
c = \( \sqrt{32} \) = \( \sqrt{16 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 4\( \sqrt{2} \)
If angle a = 69° and angle b = 41° what is the length of angle c?
| 130° | |
| 70° | |
| 61° | |
| 87° |
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 69° - 41° = 70°
