Charlie loaned Damon $1,200 at an annual interest rate of 9%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$13
$135
$39
$108

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 $1,200
i = 0.09 x $1,200
i = $108

How many hours does it take a car to travel 90 miles at an average speed of 30 miles per hour?

85% Answer Correctly
3 hours
8 hours
7 hours
6 hours

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 time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{90mi}{30mph} \)
3 hours


4

Simplify \( \sqrt{50} \)

62% Answer Correctly
9\( \sqrt{2} \)
9\( \sqrt{4} \)
5\( \sqrt{2} \)
4\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{50} \)
\( \sqrt{25 \times 2} \)
\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 2} \)
5\( \sqrt{2} \)


5

Solve for \( \frac{2!}{5!} \)

66% Answer Correctly
56
3024
\( \frac{1}{7} \)
\( \frac{1}{60} \)

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{2!}{5!} \)
\( \frac{2 \times 1}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{5 \times 4 \times 3} \)
\( \frac{1}{60} \)
