What is \( 4 \)\( \sqrt{80} \) + \( 7 \)\( \sqrt{5} \)

35% Answer Correctly
11\( \sqrt{80} \)
28\( \sqrt{5} \)
23\( \sqrt{5} \)
11\( \sqrt{16} \)

Solution

To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:

4\( \sqrt{80} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)
4\( \sqrt{16 \times 5} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)
4\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 5} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)
(4)(4)\( \sqrt{5} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)
16\( \sqrt{5} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:

16\( \sqrt{5} \) + 7\( \sqrt{5} \)
(16 + 7)\( \sqrt{5} \)
23\( \sqrt{5} \)


2

This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

60% Answer Correctly

PEDMAS

commutative

associative

distributive


Solution

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.


3

4! = ?

84% Answer Correctly

3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

4 x 3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


4

A factor is a positive __________ that divides evenly into a given number.

78% Answer Correctly

integer

mixed number

fraction

improper fraction


Solution

A factor is a positive integer that divides evenly into a given number. For example, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.


5

Alex loaned Christine $900 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
$963
$909
$981
$954

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 $900
i = 0.06 x $900

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

total = $900 + $54
total = $954
