2

What is 5\( \sqrt{4} \) x 6\( \sqrt{4} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
11\( \sqrt{16} \)
30\( \sqrt{8} \)
120
11\( \sqrt{4} \)

Solution

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

5\( \sqrt{4} \) x 6\( \sqrt{4} \)
(5 x 6)\( \sqrt{4 \times 4} \)
30\( \sqrt{16} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

30\( \sqrt{16} \)
30\( \sqrt{4^2} \)
(30)(4)
120


3

77% Answer Correctly
8
14
9
4

Solution

The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 32 are [1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32]. They share 4 factors [1, 2, 4, 8] making 8 the greatest factor 24 and 32 have in common.


4

5

Which of the following statements about exponents is false?

47% Answer Correctly

b1 = b

all of these are false

b0 = 1

b1 = 1


Solution

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).
