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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d

c = π r2


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.


2

If a = c = 2, b = d = 4, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
7
5
8
24

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 4
a = 8


3

Simplify 5a x 9b.

86% Answer Correctly
45\( \frac{a}{b} \)
45\( \frac{b}{a} \)
45ab
45a2b2

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.

5a x 9b = (5 x 9) (a x b) = 45ab


4

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

71% Answer Correctly

right angle

parallel

equal length

equal angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, 0). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0
y = x + 4
y = -2x + 4

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is 4. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 8) and (2, 0) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(0.0) - (8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2x + 4
