Solve -7c + 5c = 3c - 7y + 8 for c in terms of y.

34% Answer Correctly
-3\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
2y + 1
1\(\frac{1}{5}\)y - \(\frac{4}{5}\)
\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + \(\frac{2}{5}\)

Solution

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

-7c + 5y = 3c - 7y + 8
-7c = 3c - 7y + 8 - 5y
-7c - 3c = -7y + 8 - 5y
-10c = -12y + 8
c = \( \frac{-12y + 8}{-10} \)
c = \( \frac{-12y}{-10} \) + \( \frac{8}{-10} \)
c = 1\(\frac{1}{5}\)y - \(\frac{4}{5}\)


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

Solve for c:
4c - 7 > -5 + 6c

55% Answer Correctly
c > -1
c > -\(\frac{3}{4}\)
c > \(\frac{3}{4}\)
c > 4

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 > sign and the answer on the other.

4c - 7 > -5 + 6c
4c > -5 + 6c + 7
4c - 6c > -5 + 7
-2c > 2
c > \( \frac{2}{-2} \)
c > -1


4

Simplify 6a x 5b.

85% Answer Correctly
30\( \frac{b}{a} \)
30ab
30\( \frac{a}{b} \)
30a2b2

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.

6a x 5b = (6 x 5) (a x b) = 30ab


5

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

First

Odd

Last

Inside


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.
