What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, __________ ?

69% Answer Correctly
61
54
53
66

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 4(n - 1)

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 + 4(6 - 1)
a6 = 41 + 4(5)
a6 = 61


2

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 4 hours at an average speed of 30 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
140 miles
120 miles
280 miles
300 miles

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 30mph \times 4h \)
120 miles

How many 9-passenger vans will it take to drive all 45 members of the football team to an away game?

80% Answer Correctly
5 vans
3 vans

5

What is \( \sqrt{\frac{4}{25}} \)?

70% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
1\(\frac{1}{7}\)
\(\frac{2}{5}\)
3

Solution

To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:

\( \sqrt{\frac{4}{25}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{25}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{2^2}}{\sqrt{5^2}} \)
\(\frac{2}{5}\)
