Solve for \( \frac{6!}{3!} \)
| \( \frac{1}{6} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{120} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{7} \) | |
| 120 |
A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{6!}{3!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4}{1} \)
\( 6 \times 5 \times 4 \)
120
What is \( \frac{9x^9}{3x^4} \)?
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)x5 | |
| 3x36 | |
| 3x5 | |
| 3x\(\frac{4}{9}\) |
To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:
\( \frac{9x^9}{3x^4} \)
\( \frac{9}{3} \) x(9 - 4)
3x5
\({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\) defines which of the following?
commutative property for multiplication |
|
distributive property for division |
|
commutative property for division |
|
distributive property for multiplication |
The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).
What is \( \frac{21\sqrt{63}}{7\sqrt{9}} \)?
| 3 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \) | |
| 3 \( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \) | |
| 7 \( \sqrt{3} \) |
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{21\sqrt{63}}{7\sqrt{9}} \)
\( \frac{21}{7} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{63}{9}} \)
3 \( \sqrt{7} \)
How many hours does it take a car to travel 135 miles at an average speed of 15 miles per hour?
| 4 hours | |
| 1 hour | |
| 9 hours | |
| 6 hours |
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 = \( \frac{135mi}{15mph} \)
9 hours
