A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 50% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
30%
25%
15%
35%

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 50% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{50\text{%}}{2} \) = 25%

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, __________ ?

69% Answer Correctly
52
55
61
63

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 4(n - 1)

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 + 4(6 - 1)
a6 = 41 + 4(5)
a6 = 61

Convert 4,429,000 to scientific notation.

62% Answer Correctly
0.443 x 107
4.429 x 10-6
4.429 x 10-5
4.429 x 106

Solution

A number in scientific notation has the format 0.000 x 10exponent. To convert to scientific notation, move the decimal point to the right or the left until the number is a decimal between 1 and 10. The exponent of the 10 is the number of places you moved the decimal point and is positive if you moved the decimal point to the left and negative if you moved it to the right:

4,429,000 in scientific notation is 4.429 x 106
