1

If a = c = 1, b = d = 8, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
30
8
25
63

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 1 x 8
a = 8


2

Simplify 2a x 5b.

86% Answer Correctly
10\( \frac{b}{a} \)
7ab
10ab
10a2b2

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 5b = (2 x 5) (a x b) = 10ab


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -4) and (2, 6). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
1
-3
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -4) and (2, 6) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(6.0) - (-4.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

Simplify (y + 9)(y - 7)

63% Answer Correctly
y2 + 2y - 63
y2 - 2y - 63
y2 + 16y + 63
y2 - 16y + 63

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 9)(y - 7)
(y x y) + (y x -7) + (9 x y) + (9 x -7)
y2 - 7y + 9y - 63
y2 + 2y - 63


5

Solution

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