1

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

67% Answer Correctly

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh


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.


2

If side x = 12cm, side y = 13cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
22cm
30cm
34cm
24cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 13cm + 9cm = 34cm


3

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 - a2

a2 - c2

c - a

c2 + a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


4

Solve for y:
-9y + 9 = \( \frac{y}{-6} \)

46% Answer Correctly
1
\(\frac{16}{17}\)
-\(\frac{18}{31}\)
1\(\frac{1}{53}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

-9y + 9 = \( \frac{y}{-6} \)
-6 x (-9y + 9) = y
(-6 x -9y) + (-6 x 9) = y
54y - 54 = y
54y - 54 - y = 0
54y - y = 54
53y = 54
y = \( \frac{54}{53} \)
y = 1\(\frac{1}{53}\)


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
168
72
432
70

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 9 x 2 x 4
v = 72
