Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

70% Answer Correctly

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

all of these statements are correct


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.

Solve for c:
-9c - 4 = 9 - 2c

59% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{5}\)
-1\(\frac{6}{7}\)
3
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)

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.

-9c - 4 = 9 - 2c
-9c = 9 - 2c + 4
-9c + 2c = 9 + 4
-7c = 13
c = \( \frac{13}{-7} \)
c = -1\(\frac{6}{7}\)


3

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

intersects

bisects

trisects

midpoints


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

rhombus

quadrilateral

triangle

trapezoid


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 3 and radius (r) = 8. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
36π
245π
192π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(82 x 3)
v = 192π
