2

Simplify (4a)(2ab) - (2a2)(8b).

59% Answer Correctly
-8a2b
24a2b
60a2b
8ab2

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.

(4a)(2ab) - (2a2)(8b)
(4 x 2)(a x a x b) - (2 x 8)(a2 x b)
(8)(a1+1 x b) - (16)(a2b)
8a2b - 16a2b
-8a2b


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 5. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
184
142
378
76

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 8 x 5) + (2 x 5 x 4) + (2 x 8 x 4)
sa = (80) + (40) + (64)
sa = 184


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 2. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
16
270
168
384

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 2 x 2
v = 16


5

Solve for c:
c2 - 14c + 49 = 0

57% Answer Correctly
7
3 or -3
7 or -4
9 or -3

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

c2 - 14c + 49 = 0
(c - 7)(c - 7) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, (c - 7) must equal zero:

If (c - 7) = 0, c must equal 7

So the solution is that c = 7
