What is 6a - 2a?

78% Answer Correctly
12a
4a
a2
4a2

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.

6a - 2a = 4a


2

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

76% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π r

a = π d

a = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


3

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

87% Answer Correctly

addition

exponents

division

pairs


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.)


4

If a = c = 3, b = d = 5, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
9
54
15
30

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 5
a = 15


5

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
