1. Solve for x in the equation above: (x/y) - z = rw

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To solve for x, first, isolate x by moving the term involving x to one side of the equation. Begin by adding z to both sides of the equation to get (x/y) = rw + z. Then, multiply both sides by y to get x = y(rw + z), which simplifies to x = y(z + rw). Therefore, choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly rearrange the terms in the equation to solve for x.

2. 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.

3. A book has a width of 2.5 decimeters. What is the width of the book in centimeters?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert decimeters to centimeters, we use the conversion factor that 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters. Setting up the proportion: 1/0.1 = x/2.5. Solving for x gives 2.5 = 0.1x, x = 25. Therefore, the width of the book in centimeters is 25. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert decimeters to centimeters. A and D have decimal placement errors, and C has an incorrect magnitude of centimeters.

4. What is the number of students who said their favorite color is blue if 35% of 100 students chose blue as their favorite color?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the number of students who said their favorite color is blue, we calculate 35% of 100, which is (35/100) * 100 = 35. Therefore, 35 students said their favorite color is blue. Choice B is incorrect because it represents the percentage of students who chose red. Choice C is incorrect as it represents the percentage of students who chose green. Choice D is incorrect as it represents the percentage of students who chose yellow.

5. What is the result of the expression 102 – 7(3 – 4) – 25? Which of the following is correct?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To simplify the expression, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS): Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). First, solve inside the parentheses: 3 - 4 = -1. Then, multiply -1 by 7: -1 * 7 = -7. Now, substitute these values back into the expression: 102 - (-7) - 25 = 102 + 7 - 25 = 109 - 25 = 84. Therefore, the correct answer is 84. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct simplification of the given expression.
