Find the average of the following numbers: 17, 9, 16, 10.

74% Answer Correctly
11
13
17
10

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{17 + 9 + 16 + 10}{4} \) = \( \frac{52}{4} \) = 13


2

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 40% off." If Damon buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $35, how much money will he save?

70% Answer Correctly
$12.25
$17.50
$14.00
$3.50

Solution

By buying two shirts, Damon will save $35 x \( \frac{40}{100} \) = \( \frac{$35 x 40}{100} \) = \( \frac{$1400}{100} \) = $14.00 on the second shirt.

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 3 hours at an average speed of 20 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
60 miles
180 miles
250 miles
320 miles

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 distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 20mph \times 3h \)
60 miles

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:

8y4 x 2y2
(8 x 2)y(4 + 2)
16y6
