1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 6. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
142
152
222
88

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 2 x 6) + (2 x 6 x 8) + (2 x 2 x 8)
sa = (24) + (96) + (32)
sa = 152


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


4

If a = c = 8, b = d = 7, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
48
56
35
6

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 7
a = 56


5

Solve for a:
-8a - 3 > \( \frac{a}{-2} \)

44% Answer Correctly
a > -2\(\frac{2}{5}\)
a > -6
a > 1\(\frac{5}{7}\)
a > -\(\frac{2}{5}\)

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.

-8a - 3 > \( \frac{a}{-2} \)
-2 x (-8a - 3) > a
(-2 x -8a) + (-2 x -3) > a
16a + 6 > a
16a + 6 - a > 0
16a - a > -6
15a > -6
a > \( \frac{-6}{15} \)
a > -\(\frac{2}{5}\)
