What is 3a + 6a?

81% Answer Correctly
9a
18a
9a2
a2

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.

3a + 6a = 9a


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 8 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
128π
48π
12π
36π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 8)
v = 128π


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 3. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
120
336
168
12

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 7 x 8 x 3
v = 168


4

Simplify (y - 1)(y - 3)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 + 4y + 3
y2 + 2y - 3
y2 - 2y - 3
y2 - 4y + 3

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:

(y - 1)(y - 3)
(y x y) + (y x -3) + (-1 x y) + (-1 x -3)
y2 - 3y - y + 3
y2 - 4y + 3


5

If b = 2 and x = -5, what is the value of 7b(b - x)?

68% Answer Correctly
98
-384
-816
-128

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

7b(b - x)
7(2)(2 + 5)
7(2)(7)
(14)(7)
