1

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

factoring

squaring

deconstructing

normalizing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


2

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

46% Answer Correctly

intersects

midpoints

trisects

bisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


3

What is 9a7 - 6a7?

74% Answer Correctly
54a14
3a14
15
3a7

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.

9a7 - 6a7 = 3a7


4

Simplify (y + 6)(y - 9)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 - 15y + 54
y2 + 15y + 54
y2 + 3y - 54
y2 - 3y - 54

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 6)(y - 9)
(y x y) + (y x -9) + (6 x y) + (6 x -9)
y2 - 9y + 6y - 54
y2 - 3y - 54

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 2?

71% Answer Correctly
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 * 2)
c = 4π
