What is \( 2 \)\( \sqrt{48} \) - \( 8 \)\( \sqrt{3} \)
| -6\( \sqrt{16} \) | |
| 16\( \sqrt{144} \) | |
| -6\( \sqrt{144} \) | |
| 0\( \sqrt{3} \) |
To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
2\( \sqrt{48} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)
2\( \sqrt{16 \times 3} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)
2\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 3} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)
(2)(4)\( \sqrt{3} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)
8\( \sqrt{3} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:
8\( \sqrt{3} \) - 8\( \sqrt{3} \)What is the greatest common factor of 32 and 52?
| 4 | |
| 18 | |
| 22 | |
| 16 |
The factors of 32 are [1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32] and the factors of 52 are [1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 the greatest factor 32 and 52 have in common.
What is \( \frac{2c^5}{6c^3} \)?
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)c-2 | |
| 3c8 | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)c8 | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)c2 |
To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:
\( \frac{2c^5}{6c^3} \)
\( \frac{2}{6} \) c(5 - 3)
\(\frac{1}{3}\)c2
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 5% off." If Charlie buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $34, how much money will he save?
| $10.20 | |
| $1.70 | |
| $17.00 | |
| $8.50 |
By buying two shirts, Charlie will save $34 x \( \frac{5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$34 x 5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$170}{100} \) = $1.70 on the second shirt.
What is \( \frac{4}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{9} \)?
| 1\(\frac{5}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{6}{35}\) | |
| 12 | |
| \(\frac{4}{21}\) |
To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:
\( \frac{4}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{9} \) = \( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{9}{3} \)
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{9}{3} \) = \( \frac{4 x 9}{7 x 3} \) = \( \frac{36}{21} \) = 1\(\frac{5}{7}\)
