80% Answer Correctly
y6
y5
2y3
3y2

2

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

41% Answer Correctly
36\( \sqrt{9} \)
12\( \sqrt{4} \)
36\( \sqrt{4} \)
72\( \sqrt{5} \)

Solution

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

6\( \sqrt{5} \) x 6\( \sqrt{4} \)
(6 x 6)\( \sqrt{5 \times 4} \)
36\( \sqrt{20} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

36\( \sqrt{20} \)
36\( \sqrt{5 \times 4} \)
36\( \sqrt{5 \times 2^2} \)
(36)(2)\( \sqrt{5} \)
72\( \sqrt{5} \)

If a car travels 105 miles in 3 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
30 mph
75 mph
40 mph
35 mph

Solution

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

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{105mi}{3h} \)
35 mph

If there were a total of 50 raffle tickets sold and you bought 4 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
8%
17%
5%
1%

Solution

You have 4 out of the total of 50 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{4}{50} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{4 \times 100}{50} \) = \( \frac{400}{50} \) = 8% chance to win the raffle.
