Question

Menu

Above is the menu at a coffee shop.

Jerry has a coupon that entitles him to a free butter croissant with the purchase of one large drink of any kind. The coupon says "limit one per coupon".

He decides to purchase a large espresso, a large cappucino, and two butter croissants. Disregarding tax, how much will he pay for them?

Answer

The coupon will entitle him to one free croissant, so Jerry will pay for the large espresso, the large cappucino, and one butter croissant. The charge will be the sum of the three prices:

Question

Find the distance, , between point and point .

Answer

Use the distance formula to solve this problem.

Plugging in our points A and B we get the following distance.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve the equation by Substitution.

Answer

First, take the first equation and solve for x in terms of y.

From here, substitute the equation you found for x into the second equation and solve for y.

Now, substitute the y value found into the original equation and solve for x.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve the equation by Elimination.

Answer

To solve this system of equations by elimination you first need to multiply the first equation by -2. This will allow the y terms to cancel when equation 1 and equation 2 are adding together.

Now solve for x.

Substitute the x value into the orginial equation and solve for y.

Question

Solve:

Answer

Simplify first by eliminating the parentheses. To do this you will need to distribute the coefficient term outside the parentheses to each term within the parentheses.

Next, combine like terms.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Simplify, if possible:

Answer

There is only one like-term in the expression given, which is .

Add the like term. The rest of the terms cannot be combined by adding or subtracting.

The correct answer is:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve:

Answer

Add the ones digits.

Since this number is or greater, use the tens digit as a carry over.

Add the tens digits with the carry over.

Add the hundreds digit with the carry over. The hundreds digit for the second number in the problem is zero.

Since there is no carry over and there is no thousands digit for the second number, the thousands digit of the answer is just .

Combine all the ones digits in chronological order from thousands to the ones digits.

The answer is:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve:

Answer

In order to simplify this, we need to combine like-terms. The coefficients of unlike terms cannot be combined.

Add and .

Add and .

Add and .

Combine all the terms.

The answer is:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve:

Answer

In order to solve the problem, first evaluate .

Borrow a one from the six in the tens digit in order to subtract the ones digit.

The six in the tens digit becomes a five. Subtract the five with the tens digit of the second number.

Add .

Add the ones digit.

Since the number is ten or greater, use the tens digit as a carryover to the next calculation.

Combine the ones digits.

The answer is .

Question

Evaluate:

Answer

In order to subtract the number, take the bigger number and subtract the smaller number, and then apply the negative sign.

The common factor of negative one can be pulled out to rearrange the numbers.

Question

Combine the following terms:

Answer

Combine the following terms:

To begin, we can consider each step independently. Because we are only dealing with addition and subtraction, the order we do this in does not matter. Rewrite as follows:

So there we go, is our answer.

Question

Simplify the following expression:

Answer

Simplify the following expression:

Let's break this into parts.

First, realize that adding a negative number is the same as subtracting that number:

Next, subtract the 88:

Our answer must be negative, because 88 is bigger than 84. Therefore our answer is -4

Question

If and , what is ?

Answer

When we add the functions together, we can only add terms that have matching exponents. First, let's add the terms that are squared:

Next, let's do the linear terms:

Finally, we add the constants:

Then we collect all the terms back together:
