Simplify \( \sqrt{32} \)

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

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{32} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 2} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 2} \)
4\( \sqrt{2} \)


2

3

Find the average of the following numbers: 11, 5, 11, 5.

74% Answer Correctly
11
10
8
3

Solution

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

\( \frac{11 + 5 + 11 + 5}{4} \) = \( \frac{32}{4} \) = 8

How many hours does it take a car to travel 275 miles at an average speed of 55 miles per hour?

86% Answer Correctly
3 hours
5 hours
1 hour
7 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 = \( \frac{275mi}{55mph} \)
5 hours
