1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 5, and width (w) = 4. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
76
110
46
306

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 5 x 4) + (2 x 4 x 2) + (2 x 5 x 2)
sa = (40) + (16) + (20)
sa = 76


2

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

squaring

normalizing

factoring

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


3

If the base of this triangle is 2 and the height is 5, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
60
5
49
45\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 2 x 5 = \( \frac{10}{2} \) = 5


4

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

69% Answer Correctly

right angle

equal angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

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


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, -2). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-3
-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, 0) and (2, -2) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-2.0) - (0.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-2}{4} \)
m = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
