What is \( 6 \)\( \sqrt{28} \) + \( 2 \)\( \sqrt{7} \)
| 12\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 12\( \sqrt{28} \) | |
| 14\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{28} \) |
To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
6\( \sqrt{28} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)
6\( \sqrt{4 \times 7} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)
6\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 7} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)
(6)(2)\( \sqrt{7} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)
12\( \sqrt{7} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:
12\( \sqrt{7} \) + 2\( \sqrt{7} \)Bob loaned Diane $1,500 at an annual interest rate of 3%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?
| $1,560 | |
| $1,545 | |
| $1,620 | |
| $1,605 |
The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:
interest = annual interest rate x loan amount
i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $1,500
i = 0.03 x $1,500
No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:
total = $1,500 + $45What is \( \frac{9}{2} \) - \( \frac{8}{10} \)?
| \( \frac{9}{10} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{1}{10} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{8}{16} \) | |
| 3\(\frac{7}{10}\) |
To subtract these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 2 are [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20] and the first few multiples of 10 are [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90]. The first few multiples they share are [10, 20, 30, 40, 50] making 10 the smallest multiple 2 and 10 share.
Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:
\( \frac{9 x 5}{2 x 5} \) - \( \frac{8 x 1}{10 x 1} \)
\( \frac{45}{10} \) - \( \frac{8}{10} \)
Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can subtract them:
\( \frac{45 - 8}{10} \) = \( \frac{37}{10} \) = 3\(\frac{7}{10}\)
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 10% off." If Alex buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $37, how much will he pay for both shirts?
| $33.30 | |
| $55.50 | |
| $53.65 | |
| $70.30 |
By buying two shirts, Alex will save $37 x \( \frac{10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$37 x 10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$370}{100} \) = $3.70 on the second shirt.
So, his total cost will be
$37.00 + ($37.00 - $3.70)
$37.00 + $33.30
$70.30
