What is 2\( \sqrt{5} \) x 7\( \sqrt{4} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
14\( \sqrt{5} \)
9\( \sqrt{20} \)
28\( \sqrt{5} \)
9\( \sqrt{5} \)

Solution

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

2\( \sqrt{5} \) x 7\( \sqrt{4} \)
(2 x 7)\( \sqrt{5 \times 4} \)
14\( \sqrt{20} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

14\( \sqrt{20} \)
14\( \sqrt{5 \times 4} \)
14\( \sqrt{5 \times 2^2} \)
(14)(2)\( \sqrt{5} \)
28\( \sqrt{5} \)


2

What is \( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{9} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{63}\)
\(\frac{4}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{21}\)
\(\frac{1}{8}\)

Solution

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{9} \) = \( \frac{2 x 2}{7 x 9} \) = \( \frac{4}{63} \) = \(\frac{4}{63}\)


3

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 6 hours at an average speed of 70 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
420 miles
200 miles
70 miles
140 miles

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 70mph \times 6h \)
420 miles


4

Simplify \( \sqrt{27} \)

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

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{27} \)
\( \sqrt{9 \times 3} \)
\( \sqrt{3^2 \times 3} \)
3\( \sqrt{3} \)


5

Find the average of the following numbers: 11, 3, 10, 4.

75% Answer Correctly
9
7
4
12

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{11 + 3 + 10 + 4}{4} \) = \( \frac{28}{4} \) = 7
