1

If a = 1, b = 7, c = 3, and d = 1, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
13
16
15
12

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 1 + 7 + 3 + 1
p = 12


2

Solve for x:
-7x - 6 < -9 - 8x

54% Answer Correctly
x < \(\frac{5}{6}\)
x < -3
x < -\(\frac{2}{7}\)
x < -\(\frac{1}{2}\)

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.

-7x - 6 < -9 - 8x
-7x < -9 - 8x + 6
-7x + 8x < -9 + 6
x < -3


3

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

equal length

right angle

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


4

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

slope

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

y-intercept

x-intercept


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% 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).
