A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 60% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?
| 20% | |
| 27\(\frac{1}{2}\)% | |
| 30% | |
| 32\(\frac{1}{2}\)% |
The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 60% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{60\text{%}}{2} \) = 30%
How many 15-passenger vans will it take to drive all 80 members of the football team to an away game?
| 5 vans | |
| 7 vans | |
| 9 vans | |
| 6 vans |
Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:
vans = \( \frac{80}{15} \) = 5\(\frac{1}{3}\)
So, it will take 5 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 6 vans.
Cooks are needed to prepare for a large party. Each cook can bake either 2 large cakes or 11 small cakes per hour. The kitchen is available for 3 hours and 38 large cakes and 460 small cakes need to be baked.
How many cooks are required to bake the required number of cakes during the time the kitchen is available?
| 11 | |
| 21 | |
| 6 | |
| 15 |
If a single cook can bake 2 large cakes per hour and the kitchen is available for 3 hours, a single cook can bake 2 x 3 = 6 large cakes during that time. 38 large cakes are needed for the party so \( \frac{38}{6} \) = 6\(\frac{1}{3}\) cooks are needed to bake the required number of large cakes.
If a single cook can bake 11 small cakes per hour and the kitchen is available for 3 hours, a single cook can bake 11 x 3 = 33 small cakes during that time. 460 small cakes are needed for the party so \( \frac{460}{33} \) = 13\(\frac{31}{33}\) cooks are needed to bake the required number of small cakes.
Because you can't employ a fractional cook, round the number of cooks needed for each type of cake up to the next whole number resulting in 7 + 14 = 21 cooks.
What is (b3)2?

| b6 | |
| b-1 | |
| b5 |
To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:
(b3)2What is 4c4 x 3c4?
| 12c16 | |
| 7c4 | |
| 12c4 | |
| 12c8 |
To multiply terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:
4c4 x 3c4
(4 x 3)c(4 + 4)
12c8
