Roger loaned Charlie $500 at an annual interest rate of 9%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?
| $60 | |
| $15 | |
| $45 | |
| $90 |
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 $500
i = 0.09 x $500
i = $45
What is the least common multiple of 6 and 10?
| 5 | |
| 22 | |
| 30 | |
| 45 |
The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 10 are [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90]. The first few multiples they share are [30, 60, 90] making 30 the smallest multiple 6 and 10 have in common.
a(b + c) = ab + ac defines which of the following?
distributive property for multiplication |

commutative property for division |

commutative property for multiplication |

distributive property for division |
The distributive property for multiplication helps in solving expressions like a(b + c). It specifies that the result of multiplying one number by the sum or difference of two numbers can be obtained by multiplying each number individually and then totaling the results: a(b + c) = ab + ac. For example, 4(10-5) = (4 x 10) - (4 x 5) = 40 - 20 = 20.
This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.
What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, __________ ?
| 69 | |
| 54 | |
| 61 | |
| 62 |
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 4(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 + 4(6 - 1)
a6 = 41 + 4(5)
a6 = 61
