b1 = b

all of these are false

A number with an exponent (be) consists of a base (b) raised to a power (e). The exponent indicates the number of times that the base is multiplied by itself. A base with an exponent of 1 equals the base (b1 = b) and a base with an exponent of 0 equals 1 ( (b0 = 1).

Monica scored 93% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 90 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Monica answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
42
29
21
28

Solution

Monica scored 93% on the test meaning she earned 93% of the possible points on the test. There were 90 possible points on the test so she earned 90 x 0.93 = 84 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{84}{3} \) = 28 questions right.

A bread recipe calls for 2\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{1}{2}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{1}{8}\) cups
1\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups
2\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
1 cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (2\(\frac{5}{8}\) - \(\frac{1}{2}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{21}{8} \) - \( \frac{4}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{17}{8} \) cups
2\(\frac{1}{8}\) cups
