What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 8?

70% Answer Correctly
36π
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{8}{2} \)
r = 4
a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π


2

If b = -2 and x = -4, what is the value of 5b(b - x)?

69% Answer Correctly
-20
336
-140
-24

Solution

To solve this equation, 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.)

5b(b - x)
5(-2)(-2 + 4)
5(-2)(2)
(-10)(2)
-20


3

If side x = 7cm, side y = 15cm, and side z = 15cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
32cm
39cm
33cm
37cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 7cm + 15cm + 15cm = 37cm


4

Find the value of c:
-3c + x = 4
5c + 3x = -3

42% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{1}{14}\)
-\(\frac{2}{5}\)
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{21}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of x:

-3c + x = 4
x = 4 + 3c

then substitute the result (4 - -3c) into the second equation:

5c + 3(4 + 3c) = -3
5c + (3 x 4) + (3 x 3c) = -3
5c + 12 + 9c = -3
5c + 9c = -3 - 12
14c = -15
c = \( \frac{-15}{14} \)
c = -1\(\frac{1}{14}\)


5

If AD = 12 and BD = 8, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
5
17
10
4

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 12 - 8
AB = 4
