What is 3a7 + 7a7?

75% Answer Correctly
10a14
21a7
10a7
21a14

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.

3a7 + 7a7 = 10a7


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 4. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
180
112
222
212

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 4 x 4) + (2 x 4 x 5) + (2 x 4 x 5)
sa = (32) + (40) + (40)
sa = 112


3

Solve for z:
-4z + 9 = -2 - z

59% Answer Correctly
2
-\(\frac{5}{8}\)
3\(\frac{2}{3}\)
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

-4z + 9 = -2 - z
-4z = -2 - z - 9
-4z + z = -2 - 9
-3z = -11
z = \( \frac{-11}{-3} \)
z = 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)


4

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

88% Answer Correctly

addition

pairs

division

exponents


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.)


5

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
