Simplify \( \sqrt{112} \)

62% Answer Correctly
7\( \sqrt{14} \)
4\( \sqrt{14} \)
8\( \sqrt{14} \)
4\( \sqrt{7} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{112} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 7} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 7} \)
4\( \sqrt{7} \)


2

What is \( \frac{3}{5} \) x \( \frac{2}{7} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{6}{35}\)
\(\frac{1}{27}\)
\(\frac{3}{20}\)
\(\frac{1}{16}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{3}{5} \) x \( \frac{2}{7} \) = \( \frac{3 x 2}{5 x 7} \) = \( \frac{6}{35} \) = \(\frac{6}{35}\)


3

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 5:1 and all 43,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

49% Answer Correctly
27,333
27,750
35,833
31,500

Solution

A ratio of 5:1 means that there are 5 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 6 fans, 5 are home fans and \( \frac{5}{6} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

43,000 fans x \( \frac{5}{6} \) = \( \frac{215000}{6} \) = 35,833 fans.


4

What is 9y6 - 6y6?

71% Answer Correctly
3y6
-3y-6
15y-12
15y6

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so subtract the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

9y6 - 6y6
(9 - 6)y6
3y6
