1. How many ounces are in a pound?
- A. 8 ounces
- B. 16 ounces
- C. 32 ounces
- D. 12 ounces
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 16 ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound. This conversion is a common measure of weight in the imperial system. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion of ounces in a pound.
2. Gordon purchased a television when his local electronics store had a sale. The television was offered at 30% off its original price of $472. What was the sale price Gordon paid?
- A. $141.60
- B. $225.70
- C. $305.30
- D. $330.40
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To find the sale price after a 30% discount, you need to subtract 30% of the original price from the original price. 30% of $472 is $141.60. Subtracting this discount from the original price gives $472 - $141.60 = $330.40, which is the sale price Gordon paid. Choice A, $141.60, is incorrect as it represents only the discount amount, not the final sale price. Choices B and C are also incorrect as they do not account for the correct calculations of the discount and final sale price.
3. Solve for x: 2x + 6 = 14
- A. x = 4
- B. x = 8
- C. x = 10
- D. x = 13
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation 2x + 6 = 14, you first subtract 6 from both sides to isolate 2x. This gives 2x = 8. Then, divide by 2 on both sides to find x. Therefore, x = 4. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly follow the steps of solving the equation.
4. Which of the following describes a real-world situation that could be modeled by?
- A. Courtney charges a $12 fee plus $2 per hour to babysit. Kendra charges a $10 fee plus $5 per hour. Write an equation to find the number of hours for which the two charges are equal.
- B. Courtney charges a $2 fee plus $12 per hour to babysit. Kendra charges a $5 fee plus $10 per hour. Write an equation to find the number of hours for which the two charges are equal.
- C. Courtney charges a $12 fee plus $2 to babysit. Kendra charges a $10 fee plus $5 to babysit. Write an equation to find the number of hours for which the two charges are equal.
- D. Courtney charges $10 plus $2 per hour to babysit. Kendra charges $12 plus $5 per hour. Write an equation to find the number of hours for which the two charges are equal.
Correct answer: A
Rationale: In the given situation, Courtney charges a $12 fee plus $2 per hour to babysit, represented by the equation: 12 + 2h where h is the number of hours. Kendra charges a $10 fee plus $5 per hour, represented by the equation: 10 + 5h. To find the number of hours for which the two charges are equal, we set the two equations equal to each other: 12 + 2h = 10 + 5h. Solving for h gives h = 2. This means that the charges are equal after 2 hours of babysitting. Choice B is incorrect because the fee and hourly rates for Courtney and Kendra are reversed, leading to an incorrect equation. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the given scenario of fees and hourly rates for babysitting by Courtney and Kendra.
5. The second midwife allocates 1/2 of her funds to pay an office administrator, plus another 1/10 for office supplies. What is the total fraction of the second midwife's budget that is spent on the office administrator and office supplies?
- A. 3/5
- B. 2/12
- C. 2/20
- D. 1/20
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the total fraction of the second midwife's budget spent on the office administrator and office supplies, add the fractions. The midwife allocates 1/2 of her funds to the office administrator (1/2) and another 1/10 for office supplies. Adding 1/2 and 1/10 gives a total of 3/5. Choice A (3/5) is correct. Choice B (2/12) is incorrect as it simplifies to 1/6, which is not the total fraction. Choice C (2/20) is incorrect as it simplifies to 1/10, which is only the fraction spent on office supplies, not the total. Choice D (1/20) is incorrect as it represents only the fraction spent on office supplies, not the total spent on both the administrator and supplies.
