2

Ezra loaned Alex $200 at an annual interest rate of 3%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$6
$21
$40
$33

Solution

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 $200
i = 0.03 x $200
i = $6


3

Simplify \( \sqrt{48} \)

62% Answer Correctly
6\( \sqrt{6} \)
2\( \sqrt{3} \)
8\( \sqrt{6} \)
4\( \sqrt{3} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{48} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 3} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 3} \)
4\( \sqrt{3} \)


4

Solve for \( \frac{6!}{3!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
120
4
336
504

Solution

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:

\( \frac{6!}{3!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4}{1} \)
\( 6 \times 5 \times 4 \)
120


5

60% Answer Correctly

distributive

associative

commutative

PEDMAS


Solution

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.
