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

| 60 | |
| \( \frac{1}{15120} \) |
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:
\( \frac{5!}{2!} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3}{1} \)
\( 5 \times 4 \times 3 \)

Simplify \( \sqrt{175} \)
| 5\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 6\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 3\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| 7\( \sqrt{14} \) |
To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:
\( \sqrt{175} \)
\( \sqrt{25 \times 7} \)
\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 7} \)

On average, the center for a basketball team hits 25% of his shots while a guard on the same team hits 35% of his shots. If the guard takes 15 shots during a game, how many shots will the center have to take to score as many points as the guard assuming each shot is worth the same number of points?
| 20 | |
| 10 | |
| 25 | |
| 12 |
guard shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \) = 15 x \( \frac{35}{100} \) = \( \frac{35 x 15}{100} \) = \( \frac{525}{100} \) = 5 shots
The center makes 25% of his shots so he'll have to take:
shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \)
shots taken = \( \frac{\text{shots taken}}{\frac{\text{% made}}{100}} \)
to make as many shots as the guard. Plugging in values for the center gives us:
center shots taken = \( \frac{5}{\frac{25}{100}} \) = 5 x \( \frac{100}{25} \) = \( \frac{5 x 100}{25} \) = \( \frac{500}{25} \) = 20 shots
to make the same number of shots as the guard and thus score the same number of points.
How many 11-passenger vans will it take to drive all 90 members of the football team to an away game?
| 6 vans | |
| 4 vans | |
| 11 vans | |
| 9 vans |
Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:
vans = \( \frac{90}{11} \) = 8\(\frac{2}{11}\)
So, it will take 8 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 9 vans.
What is 2y5 + 3y5?
| -y5 | |
| 5y5 | |
| y-5 | |
| y5 |
To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:
2y5 + 3y5
(2 + 3)y5
5y5
