1

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

70% Answer Correctly
25π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


2

Solve for b:
-5b + 5 > 8 + 9b

55% Answer Correctly
b > -\(\frac{3}{14}\)
b > -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
b > -\(\frac{4}{5}\)
b > -\(\frac{1}{3}\)

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.

-5b + 5 > 8 + 9b
-5b > 8 + 9b - 5
-5b - 9b > 8 - 5
-14b > 3
b > \( \frac{3}{-14} \)
b > -\(\frac{3}{14}\)


3

If side x = 9cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 15cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
24cm
32cm
27cm
38cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 9cm + 14cm + 15cm = 38cm


4

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

92% Answer Correctly

exponents

division

pairs

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)


5

What is 8a + 6a?

81% Answer Correctly
14a
48a2
48a
14

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.

8a + 6a = 14a
