1. Given a double bar graph, which statement is true about the distributions of Group A and Group B?
- A. Group A is negatively skewed, Group B is normal.
- B. Group A is positively skewed, Group B is normal.
- C. Group A is positively skewed, Group B is neutral.
- D. Group A is normal, Group B is negatively skewed.
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. In statistical terms, a positively skewed distribution means that the tail on the right side of the distribution is longer or fatter than the left side, indicating more high values. Therefore, Group A is positively skewed. Conversely, an approximately normal distribution, also known as a bell curve, is symmetrical with no skewness. Hence, Group B is normal. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the skewness of Group A and the normal distribution of Group B as depicted in a double bar graph.
2. Express 18/5 as a reduced mixed number.
- A. 3 3/5
- B. 3 1/15
- C. 3 1/18
- D. 3 1/54
Correct answer: A
Rationale: 18/5 = 3 with a remainder of 3, so it is 3 3/5. 3 1/15 is equivalent to 46/15 which is greater than 18/5 3 1/18 converts to 55/18 which is also greater than 18/5 3 1/54 converts to 163/54
3. A container holds 10 liters of water. If 25% of the water is used, how many liters are left?
- A. 7.5 liters
- B. 8 liters
- C. 6.5 liters
- D. 8.5 liters
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the amount of water left after 25% is used, you need to calculate 75% of the total water. 75% of 10 liters is 7.5 liters, which means that 7.5 liters of water are left. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (8 liters) is incorrect because this would be the total water remaining if 20% was used, not 25%. Choice C (6.5 liters) is incorrect as it does not account for the correct percentage of water left. Choice D (8.5 liters) is incorrect as it miscalculates the amount of water remaining after 25% is used.
4. University X requires some of its nursing students to take an exam before being admitted into the nursing program. In this year's class, the nursing students were required to take the exam, and all of those who took the exam passed. If this year's class has 200 students, how many students passed the exam?
- A. 120
- B. 100
- C. 60
- D. 50
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Since all nursing students who took the exam passed, it means 100% of the students who took the exam passed. As the total number of students in this year's class is 200, the number of students who passed the exam would be 100% of 200, equaling 200 * 100% = 200. Therefore, 200 students passed the exam.
5. Which of the following is equivalent to 8 pounds and 8 ounces? (Round to the nearest tenth of a kilogram.)
- A. 3.6 kilograms
- B. 3.9 kilograms
- C. 17.6 kilograms
- D. 18.7 kilograms
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert 8 pounds and 8 ounces to kilograms, first convert 8 ounces to pounds by dividing by 16 (since 1 pound = 16 ounces): 8 ounces / 16 = 0.5 pounds. Then add this to the original 8 pounds: 8 pounds + 0.5 pounds = 8.5 pounds. To convert pounds to kilograms, use the conversion factor 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms. Therefore, 8.5 pounds × 0.453592 kg = 3.855 kilograms, which rounds to 3.9 kilograms. Choice A (3.6 kilograms), Choice C (17.6 kilograms), and Choice D (18.7 kilograms) are incorrect conversions or have errors in calculation compared to the correct conversion of 3.9 kilograms.
