1

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

4 x 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.


2

1

-1

An integer is any whole number, including zero. An integer can be either positive or negative. Examples include -77, -1, 0, 55, 119.


3

What is \( \frac{-7x^6}{4x^4} \)?

60% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x2
-\(\frac{4}{7}\)x2
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x-2
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x24

Solution

To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

\( \frac{-7x^6}{4x^4} \)
\( \frac{-7}{4} \) x(6 - 4)
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)x2


4

What is \( \sqrt{\frac{4}{81}} \)?

70% Answer Correctly
1
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{2}{9}\)
\(\frac{3}{7}\)

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:

\( \sqrt{\frac{4}{81}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{81}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{2^2}}{\sqrt{9^2}} \)
\(\frac{2}{9}\)

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 20% off." If Ezra buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $14, how much will he pay for both shirts?

57% Answer Correctly
$25.20
$21.00
$11.20
$19.60

Solution

By buying two shirts, Ezra will save $14 x \( \frac{20}{100} \) = \( \frac{$14 x 20}{100} \) = \( \frac{$280}{100} \) = $2.80 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$14.00 + ($14.00 - $2.80)
$14.00 + $11.20
$25.20
