Solve for \( \frac{3!}{2!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
840
\( \frac{1}{210} \)
\( \frac{1}{56} \)
3

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{3!}{2!} \)
\( \frac{3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{3}{1} \)

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 1 hour at an average speed of 20 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
20 miles
200 miles
160 miles
360 miles

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 20mph \times 1h \)
20 miles

Solve 4 + (3 + 2) ÷ 3 x 3 - 52

52% Answer Correctly
-16
\(\frac{8}{9}\)
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{2}{3}\)

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

4 + (3 + 2) ÷ 3 x 3 - 52
P: 4 + (5) ÷ 3 x 3 - 52
E: 4 + 5 ÷ 3 x 3 - 25
MD: 4 + \( \frac{5}{3} \) x 3 - 25
MD: 4 + \( \frac{15}{3} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{12}{3} \) + \( \frac{15}{3} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{27}{3} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{27 - 75}{3} \)
\( \frac{-48}{3} \)
-16

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, __________ ?

69% Answer Correctly
23
29
31
37

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 2(n - 1)

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 2(6 - 1)
a6 = 21 + 2(5)
a6 = 31


5

What is 5x2 - 9x2?

71% Answer Correctly
14x4
4x-2
-4x2
14x2

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so subtract the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

5x2 - 9x2
(5 - 9)x2
-4x2
