Frank loaned April $400 at an annual interest rate of 4%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$424
$404
$416
$436

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 $400
i = 0.04 x $400

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

total = $400 + $16
total = $416

If a car travels 50 miles in 1 hour, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
15 mph
60 mph
75 mph
50 mph

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 = \( \frac{50mi}{1h} \)
50 mph

Solve 2 + (3 + 5) ÷ 2 x 3 - 42

52% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{3}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
-2

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

2 + (3 + 5) ÷ 2 x 3 - 42
P: 2 + (8) ÷ 2 x 3 - 42
E: 2 + 8 ÷ 2 x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{8}{2} \) x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{24}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{4}{2} \) + \( \frac{24}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{28}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{28 - 32}{2} \)
\( \frac{-4}{2} \)
-2
