Solve for y:
8y + 6 = 9 - y

58% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)
2
1
\(\frac{1}{3}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

8y + 6 = 9 - y
8y = 9 - y - 6
8y + y = 9 - 6
9y = 3
y = \( \frac{3}{9} \)
y = \(\frac{1}{3}\)

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 10?

71% Answer Correctly
24π
10π
20π

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 * 10)
c = 20π


3

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π d2

a = π r


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


4

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

88% Answer Correctly

pairs

addition

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.)
