1

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

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


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.


2

Simplify 2a x 9b.

86% Answer Correctly
18\( \frac{a}{b} \)
11ab
18ab
18\( \frac{b}{a} \)

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 x 9b = (2 x 9) (a x b) = 18ab


3

Solve for y:
-2y - 8 = \( \frac{y}{-3} \)

46% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{35}{62}\)
-4\(\frac{4}{5}\)
4\(\frac{4}{7}\)
\(\frac{12}{31}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

-2y - 8 = \( \frac{y}{-3} \)
-3 x (-2y - 8) = y
(-3 x -2y) + (-3 x -8) = y
6y + 24 = y
6y + 24 - y = 0
6y - y = -24
5y = -24
y = \( \frac{-24}{5} \)
y = -4\(\frac{4}{5}\)


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 4?

71% Answer Correctly
32π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 4π


5

Find the value of c:
-4c + y = 3
-8c + 8y = 1

42% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{9}{10}\)
-1
-5\(\frac{3}{4}\)
-\(\frac{23}{24}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of y:

-4c + y = 3
y = 3 + 4c

then substitute the result (3 - -4c) into the second equation:

-8c + 8(3 + 4c) = 1
-8c + (8 x 3) + (8 x 4c) = 1
-8c + 24 + 32c = 1
-8c + 32c = 1 - 24
24c = -23
c = \( \frac{-23}{24} \)
c = -\(\frac{23}{24}\)
