What is b3 - 6b3?

71% Answer Correctly
5b-3
7b-6
7b3
-5b3

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so subtract the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

1b3 - 6b3
(1 - 6)b3
-5b3


2

What is \( \sqrt{\frac{16}{36}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{3}\)
\(\frac{7}{9}\)
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:

\( \sqrt{\frac{16}{36}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{36}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4^2}}{\sqrt{6^2}} \)
\(\frac{2}{3}\)


3

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
22
17
27
26

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 5

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 + 5
a6 = 21 + 5
a6 = 26


4

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

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.


5

The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.

67% Answer Correctly

absolute value

least common multiple

greatest common multiple


Solution

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
