1

4! = ?

84% Answer Correctly

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


2

What is -8x7 x x5?

75% Answer Correctly
-7x7
-8x12
-8x-2
-8x5

Solution

To multiply terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:

-8x7 x x5
(-8 x 1)x(7 + 5)
-8x12


3

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 10, 19, 28, 37, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
43
46
53
49

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 9

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 + 9
a6 = 37 + 9
a6 = 46


4

Simplify \( \sqrt{112} \)

62% Answer Correctly
5\( \sqrt{7} \)
7\( \sqrt{7} \)
4\( \sqrt{7} \)
3\( \sqrt{7} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{112} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 7} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 7} \)
4\( \sqrt{7} \)


5

A bread recipe calls for 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups of flour. If you only have 1\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
2\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups
1\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups
2\(\frac{1}{8}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (2\(\frac{3}{4}\) - 1\(\frac{3}{8}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{22}{8} \) - \( \frac{11}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{11}{8} \) cups
1\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
