Question 1 of 35
1. Question
1 pointsThe dimensions of Box B, shown below, are twice the length of the corresponding dimensions on Box A (not shown).
Correct
Incorrect
Since the dimensions of Box A are half of the dimensions of Box B, the side lengths must be 3, 2, and 1.5. Next, find the volumes of the two
boxes. Use the formula V = lwh. The volume of Box B is 72, and the volume of Box A is 9. 72 is 8 times larger than 9. -

Question 9 of 35
9. Question
1 pointsQuestions 8 and 9 are based on the following figure.
Lines A and B are parallel.
What is the value of x?
Correct
Incorrect
Angle 3 and the angle measuring 104° are supplementary; therefore,m∠3 = 180 − 104 = 76. As established in the previous problem, angle 4
and the angle measuring 50° are corresponding angles, so m∠4 = 50°. Angle 3, angle 4, and x are the interior angles of a triangle, so they equal 180°; 50 + 76 + x = 180, and so x = 54°. -

Question 15 of 35
15. Question
1 pointsThe Wrights plan to carpet their bedroom and the adjoining hallway as shown in the diagram. What is the area of the bedroom and hallway in square feet?
Correct
Incorrect
Think of the space as two rectangles: 21 ft. by 14 ft. and 10 ft. by 7 ft. (You can find the length of the missing side of the smaller rectangle by subtracting: 24 − 14 = 10.) Use the formula A = lw to find the area of each rectangle, and then combine to find the total area of the floor to be carpeted: 21 × 14 = 294, and 7 × 10 = 70. Add the areas of the two rectangles: 294 + 70 = 364, so the Wrights will need to buy 364 square feet of carpeting.
