$98

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $900
i = 0.07 x $900
i = $63

Simplify \( \sqrt{32} \)

62% Answer Correctly
3\( \sqrt{2} \)
4\( \sqrt{2} \)
5\( \sqrt{2} \)
3\( \sqrt{4} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{32} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 2} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 2} \)
4\( \sqrt{2} \)

5

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 28 pounds of food in 4 days that's \( \frac{28}{4} \) = 7 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 70 - 28 = 42 more pounds of food to reach 70 pounds total. At 7 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{42}{7} \) = 6 more days.
