Solve 3a + 8a = -4a + 8y - 1 for a in terms of y.

34% Answer Correctly
y - \(\frac{1}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{6}\)y + \(\frac{1}{12}\)
-\(\frac{2}{3}\)y - 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)
\(\frac{1}{6}\)y + \(\frac{2}{9}\)

Solution

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

3a + 8y = -4a + 8y - 1
3a = -4a + 8y - 1 - 8y
3a + 4a = 8y - 1 - 8y
7a = - 1
a = \( \frac{ - 1}{7} \)
a = \( \frac{}{7} \) + \( \frac{-1}{7} \)
a = y - \(\frac{1}{7}\)

Simplify (2a)(4ab) - (2a2)(2b).

62% Answer Correctly
24ab2
12a2b
24a2b
4a2b

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.

(2a)(4ab) - (2a2)(2b)
(2 x 4)(a x a x b) - (2 x 2)(a2 x b)
(8)(a1+1 x b) - (4)(a2b)
8a2b - 4a2b
4a2b


3

If side x = 13cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 8cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
23cm
32cm
30cm
28cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 13cm + 9cm + 8cm = 30cm


4

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

diameter

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


5

If BD = 6 and AD = 13, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
7
14
4
12

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 = 13 - 6
AB = 7
