What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 10, 19, 28, 37, __________ ?
| 47 | |
| 43 | |
| 46 | |
| 40 |
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 9
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 + 9
a6 = 37 + 9
a6 = 46
The total water usage for a city is 10,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 20% is for personal use and 43% is for industrial use. How many more gallons of water each day is consumed for industrial use over personal use?
| 5,250 | |
| 2,300 | |
| 1,500 | |
| 3,100 |
43% of the water consumption is industrial use and 20% is personal use so (43% - 20%) = 23% more water is used for industrial purposes. 10,000 gallons are consumed daily so industry consumes \( \frac{23}{100} \) x 10,000 gallons = 2,300 gallons.
Solve 4 + (3 + 3) ÷ 4 x 2 - 22
| 1\(\frac{4}{5}\) | |
| \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| \(\frac{5}{8}\) | |
| 3 |
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
4 + (3 + 3) ÷ 4 x 2 - 22
P: 4 + (6) ÷ 4 x 2 - 22
E: 4 + 6 ÷ 4 x 2 - 4
MD: 4 + \( \frac{6}{4} \) x 2 - 4
MD: 4 + \( \frac{12}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{16}{4} \) + \( \frac{12}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{28}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{28 - 16}{4} \)
\( \frac{12}{4} \)

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 43,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?
| 33,000 | |
| 28,667 | |
| 37,500 | |
| 24,667 |
A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:
43,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{86000}{3} \) = 28,667 fans.
What is 2\( \sqrt{8} \) x 4\( \sqrt{5} \)?
| 6\( \sqrt{8} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{5} \) | |
| 6\( \sqrt{40} \) | |
| 16\( \sqrt{10} \) |
To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:
2\( \sqrt{8} \) x 4\( \sqrt{5} \)
(2 x 4)\( \sqrt{8 \times 5} \)
8\( \sqrt{40} \)
Now we need to simplify the radical:
8\( \sqrt{40} \)
8\( \sqrt{10 \times 4} \)
8\( \sqrt{10 \times 2^2} \)
(8)(2)\( \sqrt{10} \)
16\( \sqrt{10} \)
