Quiz

Begin with the review questions, then continue through the current-unit questions.

  1. Previous unit review

    Which values in {8, 9, 10} satisfy x ≤ 9? Test each by substitution.

  2. Current unit

    Plot and connect (-2,-2), (4,-2), (4,4), (-2,4). Find the side lengths and area.

  3. Current unit

    A rectangular prism has edges 1 1/2, 1 1/2, and 3 cm. Sketch it and find its volume.

  4. Current unit

    A rectangular prism has edges 3, 3, and 1 1/2 cm. Sketch it and find its volume. Show both lwh and Bh.

  5. Current unit

    Fill a prism 4/3 × 2 × 2 units with cubes of edge 1/3 unit. How many cubes fit? Use their volumes to verify lwh.

Answers and reasoning

  1. 8, 9

    Values below 9 work; the endpoint works too.

  2. Sides 6 and 6; area 36 square units

    Horizontal length 4 - (-2) = 6; vertical length 4 - (-2) = 6; area = 6 × 6.

  3. 27/4 cm³

    B = 3/2 × 3/2 = 9/4 cm²; V = B × 3 = 27/4 cm³.

  4. 27/2 cm³

    B = 3 × 3 = 9 cm²; V = B × 3/2 = 27/2 cm³.

  5. 144 cubes; each 1/27 cubic unit; prism 16/3 cubic units

    Counts along edges: 4, 6, 6. Product 144; 144 × 1/27 = 16/3, also lwh.
