1. Gordon purchased a television that was 30% off its original price of $472. What was the sale price?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the sale price after a 30% discount, you first calculate the discount amount which is 30% of $472. 30% of $472 is $141.60. To find the sale price, you subtract the discount amount from the original price: $472 - $141.60 = $330.40. Therefore, the sale price of the television after a 30% discount would be $330.40. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the calculated sale price after the discount.

2. If a train travels 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, how far does the train travel?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the distance traveled by the train, we use the formula Distance = Speed x Time. Given that the train travels at 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, the calculation would be 60 miles/hour x 2 hours = 120 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is 120 miles. Choice A (60 miles) is incorrect because it only represents the speed of the train, not the total distance traveled. Choice B (100 miles) is incorrect as it does not account for the full 2 hours of travel. Choice D (200 miles) is incorrect as it overestimates the distance by multiplying the speed by the time incorrectly.

3. The graph below represents the amount of rainfall in a particular state by month. What is the total rainfall for the months May, June, and July?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the total rainfall for May, June, and July, we add the rainfall amounts for each month: 3.2 inches (May) + 2.5 inches (June) + 3.3 inches (July) = 9.0 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (8.4 inches) is incorrect as it does not account for the correct sum of rainfall for the specified months. Choice C (7.5 inches) is incorrect as it does not include the accurate total rainfall for May, June, and July. Choice D (10.5 inches) is incorrect as it provides a total that exceeds the actual combined rainfall for the given months.

4. If you pull an orange block from a bag of 3 orange, 5 green, and 4 purple blocks, what is the probability of consecutively pulling two more orange blocks without replacement?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To calculate the probability of pulling two more orange blocks consecutively without replacement after the initial orange block is pulled, we need to multiply the probabilities. After the first orange block is pulled, there are 2 orange blocks left out of a total of 11 blocks remaining. So, the probability of pulling a second orange block is 2/11. Therefore, the overall probability is (3/12) * (2/11) = 3/55. Choice A (1/12) is incorrect because it only considers the probability of the first orange block being pulled. Choice C (1/55) is incorrect as it represents the probability of pulling two orange blocks in a row, not the consecutive pulls after the initial pull. Choice D (2/33) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation for the consecutive pulls of orange blocks.

5. Mom's car drove 72 miles in 90 minutes. How fast did she drive in feet per second?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert miles per hour to feet per second, you need to convert miles to feet and minutes to seconds. First, convert 72 miles to feet using the conversion factor 1 mile = 5280 feet: 72 miles * 5280 feet/mile = 380160 feet. Then, convert 90 minutes to seconds: 90 minutes * 60 seconds/minute = 5400 seconds. Now, to find the speed in feet per second, divide the distance traveled in feet by the time in seconds: 380160 feet / 5400 seconds = 70.4 feet per second. Therefore, the correct answer is 70.4 feet per second. Choice A, 0.8 feet per second, is incorrect as it is a much lower speed. Choice C, 0.009 feet per second, is also incorrect as it is too low. Choice D, 70.4 feet per second, would be correct if the conversion calculations were accurate, but in this case, it's not the correct answer.
