A triathlon course includes a 300m swim, a 30.6km bike ride, and a 7.800000000000001km run. What is the total length of the race course?

69% Answer Correctly
58.4km
39.4km
38.7km
55.1km

Solution

To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 300 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.3km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.3km + 30.6km + 7.800000000000001km
total distance = 38.7km

A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 30% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
37\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
15%
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)%

Solution

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 30% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{30\text{%}}{2} \) = 15%


3

What is (z4)3?

80% Answer Correctly
z7
z
3z4
z12

Solution

To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:

(z4)3
z(4 * 3)
z12


4

Find the average of the following numbers: 10, 6, 11, 5.

74% Answer Correctly
3
8
13
9

Solution

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

\( \frac{10 + 6 + 11 + 5}{4} \) = \( \frac{32}{4} \) = 8
