What is \( 4 \)\( \sqrt{75} \) + \( 4 \)\( \sqrt{3} \)
| 8\( \sqrt{225} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{75} \) | |
| 16\( \sqrt{3} \) | |
| 24\( \sqrt{3} \) |
To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
4\( \sqrt{75} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)
4\( \sqrt{25 \times 3} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)
4\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 3} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)
(4)(5)\( \sqrt{3} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)
20\( \sqrt{3} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:
20\( \sqrt{3} \) + 4\( \sqrt{3} \)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?
| 5:8 | |
| 1:2 | |
| 25:2 | |
| 9:6 |
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.
Solve for \( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
| 56 | |
| 9 | |
| \( \frac{1}{30} \) | |
| 120 |
A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6 \times 5} \)
\( \frac{1}{30} \)
How many 2 gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 12 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?
| 6 | |
| 25 | |
| 3 | |
| 7 |
To fill a 12 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 6 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2 gallons so:
cans = \( \frac{6 \text{ gallons}}{2 \text{ gallons}} \) = 3
Christine scored 90% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 150 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Christine answer correctly?
| 45 | |
| 34 | |
| 51 | |
| 48 |
Christine scored 90% on the test meaning she earned 90% of the possible points on the test. There were 150 possible points on the test so she earned 150 x 0.9 = 135 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{135}{3} \) = 45 questions right.
