1Find the sum of the greatest common divisor (GCD) and the least common multiple (LCM) of the numbers 72 and 120.
A.384
B.360
C.432
D.288
Explanation: Prime factorizations: 72 = 2³ · 3² and 120 = 2³ · 3 · 5. GCD(72, 120) = 2³ · 3 = 24. LCM(72, 120) = 2³ · 3² · 5 = 360. Their sum is 24 + 360 = 384.
2Convert the repeating decimal 0.2(36) = 0.2363636... into an irreducible common fraction.
A.26/110
B.13/55
C.236/990
D.7/30
Explanation: Using the standard formula for mixed repeating decimals: (236 - 2) / 990 = 234 / 990. Dividing numerator and denominator by 18 gives 13 / 55, which is irreducible.
3A solution contains 12% salt by mass. How many grams of pure water must be added to 300 g of this solution to obtain an 8% salt solution?
A.120 g
B.180 g
C.150 g
D.200 g
Explanation: Mass of salt in the initial solution: 300 · 0.12 = 36 g. Let w be the mass of water added. In the new solution: 36 / (300 + w) = 0.08 ⇒ 300 + w = 36 / 0.08 = 450 g ⇒ w = 450 - 300 = 150 g.
4The price of an item was first increased by 20%, and subsequently the new price was decreased by 15%. What was the net percentage change in the item's price relative to the original price?
A.Decreased by 5%
B.Increased by 5%
C.Increased by 3.5%
D.Increased by 2%
Explanation: Let the initial price be P. After a 20% increase, the price becomes 1.20P. After a 15% decrease, the new price is 1.20P · (1 - 0.15) = 1.20P · 0.85 = 1.02P. This corresponds to an increase of (1.02 - 1) · 100% = 2%.
5Simplify the algebraic expression: ((a^(1/2) - b^(1/2)) / (a - b)) · (a^(1/2) + b^(1/2)) for a > 0, b > 0, a ≠ b.
A.1
B.a - b
C.a^(1/2) + b^(1/2)
D.a / b
Explanation: The denominator factors as a difference of squares: a - b = (a^(1/2) - b^(1/2))(a^(1/2) + b^(1/2)). Multiplying numerator terms gives (a^(1/2) - b^(1/2))(a^(1/2) + b^(1/2)) = a - b. Thus, (a - b) / (a - b) = 1.
6Compute the numerical value of the expression: √((3 - 2√2)²) + √((1 - 2√2)²).
A.4√2 - 4
B.2
C.4
D.2 - 4√2
Explanation: √(x²) = |x|. Since 3 = √9 > 2√2 = √8, 3 - 2√2 > 0, so |3 - 2√2| = 3 - 2√2. Since 1 < 2√2 = √8, 1 - 2√2 < 0, so |1 - 2√2| = -(1 - 2√2) = 2√2 - 1. Summing: (3 - 2√2) + (2√2 - 1) = 2.
7Calculate the exact value of: log₂(24) - log₂(3) + log_{√3}(9).
A.6
B.7
C.8
D.5
Explanation: log₂(24) - log₂(3) = log₂(24 / 3) = log₂(8) = 3. For log_{√3}(9), (√3)⁴ = (3^(1/2))⁴ = 3² = 9, so log_{√3}(9) = 4. Adding gives 3 + 4 = 7.
8Evaluate the value of the numerical expression: 25^(log₅(6)) + 4^(log₂(3)) - 10^(lg(7)).
A.42
B.38
C.31
D.29
Explanation: 25^(log₅(6)) = (5²)^(log₅(6)) = (5^(log₅(6)))² = 6² = 36. Similarly, 4^(log₂(3)) = (2²)^(log₂(3)) = 3² = 9. And 10^(lg(7)) = 7. Thus, 36 + 9 - 7 = 38.
9If x + y = 5 and xy = 6, find the numerical value of x³ + y³.
A.35
B.65
C.95
D.125
Explanation: Using the algebraic identity x³ + y³ = (x + y)³ - 3xy(x + y): x³ + y³ = 5³ - 3 · 6 · 5 = 125 - 90 = 35.
10Simplify the rational expression: ((x² - 9) / (x² + 6x + 9)) : ((2x - 6) / (x² - 9)) for all allowed values of x.
A.(x - 3) / 2
B.(x + 3) / 2
C.x - 3
D.(x - 3) / (2(x + 3))
Explanation: Factor every part: x² - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3), x² + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)², 2x - 6 = 2(x - 3). The expression becomes: [(x - 3)(x + 3) / (x + 3)²] · [(x - 3)(x + 3) / (2(x - 3))] = [(x - 3) / (x + 3)] · [(x + 3) / 2] = (x - 3) / 2.
