If angle a = 37° and angle b = 27° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
82°
83°
95°
116°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 37° - 27° = 116°

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 9. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
270
94
64
46

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 3 x 9) + (2 x 9 x 9) + (2 x 3 x 9)
sa = (54) + (162) + (54)
sa = 270

Simplify (4a)(6ab) - (4a2)(5b).

62% Answer Correctly
90ab2
4a2b
-4ab2
90a2b

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.

(4a)(6ab) - (4a2)(5b)
(4 x 6)(a x a x b) - (4 x 5)(a2 x b)
(24)(a1+1 x b) - (20)(a2b)
24a2b - 20a2b
4a2b

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

41% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

x-intercept

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

slope


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.

Simplify (8a)(3ab) + (5a2)(8b).

65% Answer Correctly
-16a2b
16ab2
64a2b
16a2b

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.

(8a)(3ab) + (5a2)(8b)
(8 x 3)(a x a x b) + (5 x 8)(a2 x b)
(24)(a1+1 x b) + (40)(a2b)
24a2b + 40a2b
64a2b
