1

Solve for y:
8y - 3 = 2 + y

59% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{5}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-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 - 3 = 2 + y
8y = 2 + y + 3
8y - y = 2 + 3
7y = 5
y = \( \frac{5}{7} \)
y = \(\frac{5}{7}\)


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 6. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
35
225
126
216

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 9 x 6
v = 216


3

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

x-axis

y-axis

origin

all of these


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


4

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the lengths of all sides are equal

all interior angles are right angles

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


5

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 4?

69% Answer Correctly
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π
