3

A triathlon course includes a 400m swim, a 50.1km bike ride, and a 9.8km run. What is the total length of the race course?

69% Answer Correctly
47km
62.9km
62.2km
60.3km

Solution

To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 400 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.4km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.4km + 50.1km + 9.8km
total distance = 60.3km


4

What is 2c6 + 7c6?

66% Answer Correctly
-5c6
9c-12
9c12
9c6

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

2c6 + 7c6
(2 + 7)c6
9c6

Roger loaned Monica $1,100 at an annual interest rate of 6%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$1,188
$1,166
$1,111
$1,155

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $1,100
i = 0.06 x $1,100

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $1,100 + $66
total = $1,166
