What is 5\( \sqrt{2} \) x 6\( \sqrt{5} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
30\( \sqrt{7} \)
30\( \sqrt{10} \)
30\( \sqrt{5} \)
11\( \sqrt{10} \)

Solution

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

5\( \sqrt{2} \) x 6\( \sqrt{5} \)
(5 x 6)\( \sqrt{2 \times 5} \)
30\( \sqrt{10} \)

3

What is -6x5 x 3x4?

75% Answer Correctly
-3x9
-18x-1
-18x20
-18x9

Solution

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:

-6x5 x 3x4
(-6 x 3)x(5 + 4)
-18x9

5

Ezra loaned Diane $100 at an annual interest rate of 1%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$101
$106
$107
$105

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 $100
i = 0.01 x $100

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

total = $100 + $1
total = $101
