1

Which of the following is not an integer?

77% Answer Correctly

-1

\({1 \over 2}\)

1

0


Solution

An integer is any whole number, including zero. An integer can be either positive or negative. Examples include -77, -1, 0, 55, 119.


2

If a car travels 600 miles in 8 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
75 mph
30 mph
20 mph
15 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{600mi}{8h} \)
75 mph


3

4! = ?

84% Answer Correctly

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


4

If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 6 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?

47% Answer Correctly
2 m2
8 m2
32 m2
128 m2

Solution

The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 6 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 6.

Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):

2w + 2h = 6
w + h = \( \frac{6}{2} \)
w + h = 3
w = 3 - h

From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:

w = 3 - 2w
3w = 3
w = \( \frac{3}{3} \)
w = 1

Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 1) = 2 and the area = h x w = 1 x 2 = 2 m2


5

Solve 2 + (4 + 4) ÷ 2 x 5 - 42

52% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{8}{9}\)
2\(\frac{2}{3}\)
6
\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

2 + (4 + 4) ÷ 2 x 5 - 42
P: 2 + (8) ÷ 2 x 5 - 42
E: 2 + 8 ÷ 2 x 5 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{8}{2} \) x 5 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{40}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{4}{2} \) + \( \frac{40}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{44}{2} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{44 - 32}{2} \)
\( \frac{12}{2} \)
