What is 8\( \sqrt{4} \) x 7\( \sqrt{7} \)?
| 15\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 112\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 15\( \sqrt{4} \) | |
| 56\( \sqrt{7} \) |
To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:
8\( \sqrt{4} \) x 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
(8 x 7)\( \sqrt{4 \times 7} \)
56\( \sqrt{28} \)
Now we need to simplify the radical:
56\( \sqrt{28} \)
56\( \sqrt{7 \times 4} \)
56\( \sqrt{7 \times 2^2} \)
(56)(2)\( \sqrt{7} \)
112\( \sqrt{7} \)
A sports card collection contains football, baseball, and basketball cards. If the ratio of football to baseball cards is 7 to 2 and the ratio of baseball to basketball cards is 7 to 1, what is the ratio of football to basketball cards?
| 49:2 | |
| 3:8 | |
| 1:1 | |
| 5:8 |
The ratio of football cards to baseball cards is 7:2 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards is 7:1. To solve this problem, we need the baseball card side of each ratio to be equal so we need to rewrite the ratios in terms of a common number of baseball cards. (Think of this like finding the common denominator when adding fractions.) The ratio of football to baseball cards can also be written as 49:14 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards as 14:2. So, the ratio of football cards to basketball cards is football:baseball, baseball:basketball or 49:14, 14:2 which reduces to 49:2.
Solve 5 + (3 + 4) ÷ 3 x 2 - 42
| -6\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{3}{7}\) | |
| 1 |
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
5 + (3 + 4) ÷ 3 x 2 - 42
P: 5 + (7) ÷ 3 x 2 - 42
E: 5 + 7 ÷ 3 x 2 - 16
MD: 5 + \( \frac{7}{3} \) x 2 - 16
MD: 5 + \( \frac{14}{3} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{15}{3} \) + \( \frac{14}{3} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{29}{3} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{29 - 48}{3} \)
\( \frac{-19}{3} \)
-6\(\frac{1}{3}\)
What is the greatest common factor of 24 and 56?
| 8 | |
| 20 | |
| 7 | |
| 23 |
The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56]. They share 4 factors [1, 2, 4, 8] making 8 the greatest factor 24 and 56 have in common.
What is -8z3 x 7z5?
| -56z8 | |
| -z5 | |
| -56z-2 | |
| -56z5 |
To multiply terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:
-8z3 x 7z5
(-8 x 7)z(3 + 5)
-56z8
