TEAS 7 Math Practice Test
1. During January, Dr. Lewis worked 20 shifts. During February, she worked three times as many shifts as she did during January. During March, she worked half the number of shifts she worked during February. Which equation below describes the number of shifts Dr. Lewis worked in March?
- A. shifts = 20 + 3 + 1/2
- B. shifts = (20)(3)(1/2)
- C. shifts = (20)(3) + 1/2
- D. shifts = 20 + (3)(1/2)
Correct answer: B
Rationale: During January, Dr. Lewis worked 20 shifts. Shifts for January = 20. During February, she worked three times as many shifts as she did during January. Shifts for February = (20)(3) = 60. During March, she worked half the number of shifts she worked in February. Shifts for March = (60)(1/2) = 30. Therefore, the correct equation to describe the number of shifts Dr. Lewis worked in March is 'shifts = (20)(3)(1/2)', representing the calculation based on the given scenario. Choices A, C, and D do not accurately represent the correct mathematical relationship between the shifts worked in the different months, making them incorrect.
2. Calculate the sum of the numbers from 1 to 6:
- A. 30
- B. 21
- C. 15
- D. 13
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the sum of numbers from 1 to 6, we add them together: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 21. Therefore, the correct answer is 21. Choice A (30) is incorrect because it is not the sum of the numbers 1 to 6. Choice C (15) is incorrect as it is the sum of numbers 1 to 5. Choice D (13) is incorrect as it is the sum of numbers 1 to 4, not 1 to 6.
3. Express as an improper fraction: 8 3/7
- A. 11/7
- B. 21/8
- C. 5/3
- D. 59/7
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To convert the mixed number 8 3/7 to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number (8) by the denominator (7) and add the numerator (3) to get the numerator of the improper fraction. This gives us (8*7 + 3) / 7 = 59/7. Therefore, the correct answer is 59/7. Choice A (11/7), choice B (21/8), and choice C (5/3) are incorrect because they do not correctly convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.
4. Which of the following relationships represents no correlation between two variables?
- A. As a student’s class attendance decreases, the student’s overall grade remains the same
- B. As the number of hours a person exercises decreases, the weight of that person increases
- C. As the number of miles driven increases, the amount of gasoline in the tank decreases
- D. As the amount of water a plant receives increases, the growth rate of the plant increases
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Choice A represents no correlation between two variables as it states that as a student’s class attendance decreases, the student’s overall grade remains the same. This scenario shows no relationship between class attendance and grade. In contrast, choices B, C, and D show clear correlations between the variables mentioned. Choice B indicates a negative correlation between exercise hours and weight gain, choice C indicates a negative correlation between miles driven and gasoline in the tank, and choice D indicates a positive correlation between water intake and plant growth rate, making them all examples of correlated relationships.
5. 3(x-2)=12. Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
- A. 6
- B. -2
- C. -4
- D. 2
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation 3(x-2)=12, first distribute the 3: 3x - 6 = 12. Next, isolate x by adding 6 to both sides: 3x = 18. Finally, divide by 3 to find x: x = 6. Therefore, the correct answer is A (6). Choice B (-2) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation. Choice C (-4) is also incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation either.
