1

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

90% Answer Correctly

5

2

4

3


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


2

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r2

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d


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

Simplify (5a)(8ab) - (7a2)(8b).

59% Answer Correctly
-16a2b
195ab2
195a2b
96a2b

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.

(5a)(8ab) - (7a2)(8b)
(5 x 8)(a x a x b) - (7 x 8)(a2 x b)
(40)(a1+1 x b) - (56)(a2b)
40a2b - 56a2b
-16a2b


4

Solve -6c + 6c = -7c + 3z - 1 for c in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
-3z - 1
\(\frac{11}{12}\)z - \(\frac{2}{3}\)
z - 1
7z - 8

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (c) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

-6c + 6z = -7c + 3z - 1
-6c = -7c + 3z - 1 - 6z
-6c + 7c = 3z - 1 - 6z
c = -3z - 1


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -10) and (2, 2). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, -10) and (2, 2) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(2.0) - (-10.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3
