75% Answer Correctly
-15c12
-15c7
2c4
-15c

Solution

To multiply terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:

-3c4 x 5c3
(-3 x 5)c(4 + 3)
-15c7

5

Which of the following is a mixed number?

83% Answer Correctly

\({a \over 5} \)

\(1 {2 \over 5} \)

\({5 \over 7} \)

\({7 \over 5} \)


Solution

A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.
