What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, __________ ?
| 59 | |
| 67 | |
| 57 | |
| 61 |
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

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.
What is \( \frac{3}{5} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{6} \)?
| \(\frac{9}{35}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{24}\) | |
| \(\frac{6}{35}\) | |
| \(\frac{9}{10}\) |
To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:
\( \frac{3}{5} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{6} \) = \( \frac{3}{5} \) x \( \frac{6}{4} \)
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{3}{5} \) x \( \frac{6}{4} \) = \( \frac{3 x 6}{5 x 4} \) = \( \frac{18}{20} \) = \(\frac{9}{10}\)
The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
What is \( 2 \)\( \sqrt{75} \) + \( 5 \)\( \sqrt{3} \)
| 7\( \sqrt{225} \) | |
| 10\( \sqrt{75} \) | |
| 15\( \sqrt{3} \) | |
| 10\( \sqrt{25} \) |
To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
2\( \sqrt{75} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
2\( \sqrt{25 \times 3} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
2\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 3} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
(2)(5)\( \sqrt{3} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
10\( \sqrt{3} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:
10\( \sqrt{3} \) + 5\( \sqrt{3} \)
