Roger loaned Monica $1,100 at an annual interest rate of 8%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$1,155
$1,166
$1,188
$1,144

Solution

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 $1,100
i = 0.08 x $1,100

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $1,100 + $88
total = $1,188


2

A factor is a positive __________ that divides evenly into a given number.

78% Answer Correctly

fraction

improper fraction

integer

mixed number


Solution

A factor is a positive integer that divides evenly into a given number. For example, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.


3

What is \( \frac{12\sqrt{12}}{6\sqrt{3}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
\(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{4} \)
2 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{4} \)

Solution

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

\( \frac{12\sqrt{12}}{6\sqrt{3}} \)
\( \frac{12}{6} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{12}{3}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{4} \)


4

What is \( 4 \)\( \sqrt{28} \) + \( 7 \)\( \sqrt{7} \)

35% Answer Correctly
28\( \sqrt{4} \)
15\( \sqrt{7} \)
11\( \sqrt{7} \)
28\( \sqrt{196} \)

Solution

To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:

4\( \sqrt{28} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
4\( \sqrt{4 \times 7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
4\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
(4)(2)\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
8\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:

8\( \sqrt{7} \) + 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
(8 + 7)\( \sqrt{7} \)
15\( \sqrt{7} \)


5

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.
