1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 2. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
45π
128π
20π
324π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(22 x 5)
v = 20π


2

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

88% Answer Correctly

addition

exponents

division

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.)


3

Solve for y:
5y + 1 < 4 - 8y

55% Answer Correctly
y < \(\frac{5}{9}\)
y < -\(\frac{6}{7}\)
y < \(\frac{3}{13}\)
y < -\(\frac{2}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

5y + 1 < 4 - 8y
5y < 4 - 8y - 1
5y + 8y < 4 - 1
13y < 3
y < \( \frac{3}{13} \)
y < \(\frac{3}{13}\)


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 15?

71% Answer Correctly
30π
19π
15π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 15)
c = 30π


5

If BD = 17 and AD = 20, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
3
18
7
5

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 20 - 17
AB = 3
