1. If Mom's car drove 72 miles in 90 minutes, how fast did she drive in feet per second?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert miles per hour to feet per second, first convert time to hours: 90 minutes = 1.5 hours. Then, calculate the speed in miles per hour: 72 miles in 1.5 hours = 48 mph. Finally, convert mph to feet per second using the conversion factor 1 mph = 1.47 feet per second: 48 mph * 1.47 = 70.4 feet per second. Therefore, the correct answer is 70.4 feet per second. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from miles per hour to feet per second.

2. Eric buys 5 1/2 pounds of apples each week for four weeks. How many total pounds does he buy?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the total pounds of apples Eric buys, you need to multiply the pounds of apples bought each week (5 1/2 pounds) by the number of weeks (4 weeks). When you multiply 5 1/2 by 4, you get 22 pounds. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total pounds purchased over the four weeks.

3. Veronica decided to celebrate her promotion by purchasing a new car. The base price for the car was $40,210. She paid an additional $3,015 for a surround sound system and $5,218 for a maintenance package. What was the total price of Veronica’s new car?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the total price of Veronica's new car, add the base price, the cost of the surround sound system, and the cost of the maintenance package. Calculation: $40,210 (base price) + $3,015 (sound system) + $5,218 (maintenance package) = $48,443. Therefore, the correct answer is $48,443. Choice A, $50,210, is incorrect as it does not include the maintenance package cost. Choice C, $43,225, is incorrect as it only considers the base price and the maintenance package but omits the sound system cost. Choice D, $40,210, is the base price alone and does not account for the additional costs of the sound system and maintenance package.

4. Kimberley earns $10 an hour babysitting, and after 10 p.m., she earns $12 an hour, with the amount paid being rounded to the nearest hour accordingly. On her last job, she worked from 5:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. In total, how much did Kimberley earn on her last job?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Kimberley worked from 5:30 p.m. to 11 p.m., which is a total of 5.5 hours before 10 p.m. (from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m.) and 1 hour after 10 p.m. The earnings she made before 10 p.m. at $10 an hour was 5.5 hours * $10 = $55. Her earnings after 10 p.m. for the rounded hour were 1 hour * $12 = $12. Therefore, her total earnings for the last job were $55 + $12 = $67. Since the amount is rounded to the nearest hour, the closest rounded amount is $62. Therefore, Kimberley earned $62 on her last job. Choice A is incorrect as it does not consider the additional earnings after 10 p.m. Choices B and D are incorrect as they do not factor in the hourly rates and the total hours worked accurately.

5. Simplify the expression. Which of the following is correct? (52(3) + 3(-2)^2 / 4 + 3^2 - 2(5 - 8))

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To simplify the expression, apply the order of operations (PEMDAS). Begin by squaring -2 to get 4. Then perform the multiplication and subtraction within parentheses: 52(3) + 3(4)/4 + 9 - 2(5 - 8) = 156 + 12/4 + 9 - 2(3) = 156 + 3 + 9 - 6 = 168 + 3 - 6 = 171 - 6 = 165. Therefore, the correct simplified expression is 165, which is equivalent to 87/19. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the accurate simplification of the given expression.
