Which of the following is not an integer?
-1 |
|
\({1 \over 2}\) |
|
0 |
|
1 |
An integer is any whole number, including zero. An integer can be either positive or negative. Examples include -77, -1, 0, 55, 119.
Simplify \( \frac{36}{80} \).
| \( \frac{2}{5} \) | |
| \( \frac{9}{20} \) | |
| \( \frac{4}{19} \) | |
| \( \frac{9}{11} \) |
To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 36 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36] and the factors of 80 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 their greatest common factor (GCF).
Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:
\( \frac{36}{80} \) = \( \frac{\frac{36}{4}}{\frac{80}{4}} \) = \( \frac{9}{20} \)
What is \( \frac{28\sqrt{25}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)?
| \(\frac{1}{7}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \) | |
| 7 \( \sqrt{5} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 7 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \) |
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{28\sqrt{25}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)
\( \frac{28}{4} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{25}{5}} \)
7 \( \sqrt{5} \)
A sports card collection contains football, baseball, and basketball cards. If the ratio of football to baseball cards is 5 to 2 and the ratio of baseball to basketball cards is 5 to 1, what is the ratio of football to basketball cards?
| 1:8 | |
| 1:2 | |
| 25:2 | |
| 1:1 |
The ratio of football cards to baseball cards is 5:2 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards is 5:1. To solve this problem, we need the baseball card side of each ratio to be equal so we need to rewrite the ratios in terms of a common number of baseball cards. (Think of this like finding the common denominator when adding fractions.) The ratio of football to baseball cards can also be written as 25:10 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards as 10:2. So, the ratio of football cards to basketball cards is football:baseball, baseball:basketball or 25:10, 10:2 which reduces to 25:2.
What is \( \frac{9x^7}{7x^4} \)?
| \(\frac{7}{9}\)x11 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\)x3 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\)x\(\frac{4}{7}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\)x-3 |
To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:
\( \frac{9x^7}{7x^4} \)
\( \frac{9}{7} \) x(7 - 4)
1\(\frac{2}{7}\)x3
