What is 5a8 + 8a8?

75% Answer Correctly
13a16
-3a16
13a8
a816

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.

5a8 + 8a8 = 13a8


2

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d

a = π r2

a = π r

a = π d2


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.


3

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

49% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


4

Solve 4b - 4b = -5b + 6x - 7 for b in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{2}{3}\)x + \(\frac{8}{15}\)
x - 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
1\(\frac{1}{9}\)x - \(\frac{7}{9}\)
1\(\frac{3}{8}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{8}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (b) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

4b - 4x = -5b + 6x - 7
4b = -5b + 6x - 7 + 4x
4b + 5b = 6x - 7 + 4x
9b = 10x - 7
b = \( \frac{10x - 7}{9} \)
b = \( \frac{10x}{9} \) + \( \frac{-7}{9} \)
b = 1\(\frac{1}{9}\)x - \(\frac{7}{9}\)


5

82% Answer Correctly

polynomial

monomial

binomial

quadratic


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
