1. How many millimeters are in a meter?

• A. 100 mm
• B. 1,000 mm
• C. 10,000 mm
• D. 100,000 mm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 1,000 mm. This is because there are 1,000 millimeters in a meter. To convert from meters to millimeters, you need to multiply by 1,000. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. A meter is equivalent to 1,000 millimeters, not 100 (A), 10,000 (C), or 100,000 (D) millimeters.

2. What is 31% of 426?

• A. 425.69
• B. 132.06
• C. 13.7
• D. 0.07

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find 31% of 426, multiply 0.31 by 426. This gives 0.31 × 426 = 132.06. Therefore, choice B, 132.06, is the correct answer. Choice A, 425.69, is close to the original number but is not the correct answer for the percentage calculation. Choice C, 13.7, is not the correct result for 31% of 426. Choice D, 0.07, is significantly lower than the correct answer and does not represent 31% of 426.

3. The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the students' exam scores and their heights. Which type of correlation is depicted in the scatter plot?

• A. Positive
• B. Positive and Negative
• C. Negative
• D. No correlation

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The scatter plot illustrates the relationship between students' exam scores and heights. There is no correlation between these variables, as height is not expected to have a direct impact on exam scores. Therefore, choice D, 'No correlation,' is the correct answer. Choices A, 'Positive,' and C, 'Negative,' are incorrect because the scatter plot does not indicate a positive or negative correlation between exam scores and heights. Choice B, 'Positive and Negative,' is also incorrect because the scatter plot does not exhibit both positive and negative correlations simultaneously.

4. A circle has an area of 121π in². Which of the following is the circumference of the circle in terms of pi (π)?

• A. 11π in
• B. 22π in
• C. 44π in
• D. 5.5π in

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the circumference of the circle, we first need to determine the radius. Given that the area of the circle is 121π in², we use the formula for the area of a circle (A = πr²) to find the radius squared. So, r² = 121, which means the radius (r) is 11 in. The circumference of a circle is calculated using the formula 2πr. Substituting the radius value of 11 in, we get 2π(11) = 22π in. Therefore, the correct answer is 22π in. Choice A (11π in), Choice C (44π in), and Choice D (5.5π in) are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the circumference based on the given area of the circle.

5. Your measurement of the width of a door is 36 inches. The actual width of the door is 35.75 inches. What is the relative error in your measurement?

• A. 0.70%
• B. 0.01%
• C. 0.99%
• D. 0.10%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate relative error, you use the formula: (|measured value - actual value| / actual value) * 100%. Substituting the values, we get (|36 - 35.75| / 35.75) * 100% = (0.25 / 35.75) * 100% = 0.7%. This means your measurement is off by 0.7% from the actual width of the door. Choice B, 0.01%, is too small as it doesn't reflect the actual difference. Choices C and D are significantly different from the calculated answer and do not represent the accurate relative error in the measurement.
