What is 8a - 9a?

80% Answer Correctly
-1
17a2
-1a
a2

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.

8a - 9a = -1a


2

What is 4a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
8a2
8a
0
16a2

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.

4a + 4a = 8a


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

53% Answer Correctly

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h2

π r2h

4π r2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

Simplify (7a)(4ab) + (6a2)(5b).

65% Answer Correctly
121ab2
2a2b
58a2b
-2a2b

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.

(7a)(4ab) + (6a2)(5b)
(7 x 4)(a x a x b) + (6 x 5)(a2 x b)
(28)(a1+1 x b) + (30)(a2b)
28a2b + 30a2b
58a2b


5

Solve for z:
4z - 6 > 2 - 8z

55% Answer Correctly
z > -3\(\frac{1}{2}\)
z > -\(\frac{1}{8}\)
z > \(\frac{2}{3}\)
z > -\(\frac{2}{3}\)

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.

4z - 6 > 2 - 8z
4z > 2 - 8z + 6
4z + 8z > 2 + 6
12z > 8
z > \( \frac{8}{12} \)
z > \(\frac{2}{3}\)
