If a car travels 130 miles in 2 hours, what is the average speed?
| 45 mph | |
| 60 mph | |
| 65 mph | |
| 30 mph |
Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:
speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)A sports card collection contains football, baseball, and basketball cards. If the ratio of football to baseball cards is 3 to 2 and the ratio of baseball to basketball cards is 3 to 1, what is the ratio of football to basketball cards?
| 7:6 | |
| 7:4 | |
| 9:2 | |
| 5:4 |
The ratio of football cards to baseball cards is 3:2 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards is 3:1. To solve this problem, we need the baseball card side of each ratio to be equal so we need to rewrite the ratios in terms of a common number of baseball cards. (Think of this like finding the common denominator when adding fractions.) The ratio of football to baseball cards can also be written as 9:6 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards as 6:2. So, the ratio of football cards to basketball cards is football:baseball, baseball:basketball or 9:6, 6:2 which reduces to 9:2.
What is \( \sqrt{\frac{4}{36}} \)?
| \(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{5}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{5}{9}\) | |
| 2 |
To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:
\( \sqrt{\frac{4}{36}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{36}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{2^2}}{\sqrt{6^2}} \)
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
Solve 4 + (3 + 2) ÷ 4 x 4 - 52

| 1\(\frac{1}{6}\) |
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
4 + (3 + 2) ÷ 4 x 4 - 52
P: 4 + (5) ÷ 4 x 4 - 52
E: 4 + 5 ÷ 4 x 4 - 25
MD: 4 + \( \frac{5}{4} \) x 4 - 25
MD: 4 + \( \frac{20}{4} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{16}{4} \) + \( \frac{20}{4} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{36}{4} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{36 - 100}{4} \)
\( \frac{-64}{4} \)

Roger loaned Charlie $500 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?
| $27 | |
| $24 | |
| $26 | |
| $35 |
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 $500
i = 0.07 x $500
i = $35
