What is 9\( \sqrt{2} \) x 4\( \sqrt{4} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
36\( \sqrt{2} \)
13\( \sqrt{4} \)
36\( \sqrt{4} \)
72\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

9\( \sqrt{2} \) x 4\( \sqrt{4} \)
(9 x 4)\( \sqrt{2 \times 4} \)
36\( \sqrt{8} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

36\( \sqrt{8} \)
36\( \sqrt{2 \times 4} \)
36\( \sqrt{2 \times 2^2} \)
(36)(2)\( \sqrt{2} \)
72\( \sqrt{2} \)

Betty scored 96% on her final exam. If each question was worth 4 points and there were 200 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Betty answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
52
41
48
40

Solution

Betty scored 96% on the test meaning she earned 96% of the possible points on the test. There were 200 possible points on the test so she earned 200 x 0.96 = 192 points. Each question is worth 4 points so she got \( \frac{192}{4} \) = 48 questions right.


3

A bread recipe calls for 3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{7}{8}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
1\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
2\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (3\(\frac{1}{4}\) - \(\frac{7}{8}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{26}{8} \) - \( \frac{7}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{19}{8} \) cups
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups


4

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
13
19
7
11

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 2

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 2
a6 = 9 + 2
a6 = 11


5

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.
