Charlie loaned Roger $600 at an annual interest rate of 4%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?
| $21 | |
| $4 | |
| $24 | |
| $39 |
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 $600
i = 0.04 x $600
i = $24

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:
\( \frac{3!}{4!} \)
\( \frac{3 \times 2 \times 1}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{4} \)
\( \frac{1}{4} \)
If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 18 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?
| 72 m2 | |
| 8 m2 | |
| 50 m2 | |
| 18 m2 |
The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 18 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 18.
Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):
2w + 2h = 18
w + h = \( \frac{18}{2} \)
w + h = 9
w = 9 - h
From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:
w = 9 - 2w
3w = 9
w = \( \frac{9}{3} \)
w = 3
Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 3) = 6 and the area = h x w = 3 x 6 = 18 m2

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.
What is \( \frac{14\sqrt{14}}{7\sqrt{2}} \)?
| 2 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \) | |
| 2 \( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \) | |
| 7 \( \sqrt{2} \) |
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{14\sqrt{14}}{7\sqrt{2}} \)
\( \frac{14}{7} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{14}{2}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{7} \)
