Simplify 6a x 4b.

85% Answer Correctly
24\( \frac{a}{b} \)
24ab
24\( \frac{b}{a} \)
24a2b2

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 4b = (6 x 4) (a x b) = 24ab


2

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).

4

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

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

parallel

right angle

equal length


Solution

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


5

If the base of this triangle is 7 and the height is 2, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
58\(\frac{1}{2}\)
28
15
7

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 7 x 2 = \( \frac{14}{2} \) = 7
