\({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\) defines which of the following?
commutative property for multiplication |
|
commutative property for division |
|
distributive property for division |
|
distributive property for multiplication |
The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).
If there were a total of 400 raffle tickets sold and you bought 28 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?
| 8% | |
| 3% | |
| 7% | |
| 9% |
You have 28 out of the total of 400 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{28}{400} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{28 \times 100}{400} \) = \( \frac{2800}{400} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.
What is (b2)4?
| b6 | |
| b8 | |
| 2b4 | |
| 4b2 |
To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:
(b2)4Solve for \( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
| 9 | |
| 72 | |
| \( \frac{1}{8} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{30} \) |
A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6 \times 5} \)
\( \frac{1}{30} \)
What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, __________ ?
| 34 | |
| 26 | |
| 28 | |
| 18 |
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 5
where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:
a6 = a5 + 5
a6 = 21 + 5
a6 = 26
