What is 2\( \sqrt{6} \) x 3\( \sqrt{7} \)?
| 6\( \sqrt{13} \) | |
| 5\( \sqrt{42} \) | |
| 6\( \sqrt{42} \) | |
| 5\( \sqrt{7} \) |
To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:
2\( \sqrt{6} \) x 3\( \sqrt{7} \)
(2 x 3)\( \sqrt{6 \times 7} \)
6\( \sqrt{42} \)
Which of the following is not a prime number?

A prime number is an integer greater than 1 that has no factors other than 1 and itself. Examples of prime numbers include 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11.
What is \( \frac{9}{6} \) - \( \frac{3}{14} \)?
| \( \frac{1}{42} \) | |
| \( \frac{7}{42} \) | |
| \( \frac{5}{42} \) | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\) |
To subtract these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 14 are [14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98]. The first few multiples they share are [42, 84] making 42 the smallest multiple 6 and 14 share.
Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:
\( \frac{9 x 7}{6 x 7} \) - \( \frac{3 x 3}{14 x 3} \)
\( \frac{63}{42} \) - \( \frac{9}{42} \)
Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can subtract them:
\( \frac{63 - 9}{42} \) = \( \frac{54}{42} \) = 1\(\frac{2}{7}\)
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 5% off." If Frank buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $49, how much money will he save?
| $14.70 | |
| $2.45 | |
| 35 | |
| $24.50 |
By buying two shirts, Frank will save $49 x \( \frac{5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$49 x 5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$245}{100} \) = $2.45 on the second shirt.
Which of the following statements about exponents is false?
all of these are false |
|
b0 = 1 |
|
b1 = 1 |
|
b1 = b |
A number with an exponent (be) consists of a base (b) raised to a power (e). The exponent indicates the number of times that the base is multiplied by itself. A base with an exponent of 1 equals the base (b1 = b) and a base with an exponent of 0 equals 1 ( (b0 = 1).
