Charlie loaned Roger $1,100 at an annual interest rate of 7%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$91
$35
$77
$56

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 $1,100
i = 0.07 x $1,100
i = $77

60% Answer Correctly
8%
13%
7%
18%

You have 4 out of the total of 50 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{4}{50} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{4 \times 100}{50} \) = \( \frac{400}{50} \) = 8% chance to win the raffle.

If \(\left|a\right| = 7\), which of the following best describes a?

67% Answer Correctly

none of these is correct

a = -7

a = 7

a = 7 or a = -7


Solution

The absolute value is the positive magnitude of a particular number or variable and is indicated by two vertical lines: \(\left|-5\right| = 5\). In the case of a variable absolute value (\(\left|a\right| = 5\)) the value of a can be either positive or negative (a = -5 or a = 5).
