1. Solve the following equation: 3(2y+50)−4y=500
- A. y = 125
- B. y = 175
- C. y = 150
- D. y = 200
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To solve the equation 3(2y+50)−4y=500, first distribute to get 6y+150−4y=500. Combining like terms results in 2𑦠+ 150 = 500. By subtracting 150 from both sides, we get 2y = 350. Dividing by 2 gives y = 175. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly follow the steps of distributing, combining like terms, and isolating the variable to solve for y.
2. What is 15% of 200?
- A. 30
- B. 20
- C. 25
- D. 40
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find 15% of 200, you multiply 0.15 by 200, which equals 30. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (20) is incorrect because it represents 10% of 200. Choice C (25) is incorrect as it does not accurately represent 15% of 200. Choice D (40) is incorrect as it represents 20% of 200.
3. 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?
- A. $45
- B. $57
- C. $62
- D. $42
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.
4. University Q has an extremely competitive nursing program. Historically, 3/4 of the students in each incoming class major in nursing, but only 1/5 of those who major in nursing complete the program. If this year’s incoming class has 100 students, how many will complete the nursing program?
- A. 75
- B. 20
- C. 15
- D. 5
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Out of the 100 students, 3/4 major in nursing, which equals 75 students. However, only 1/5 of these 75 students will complete the program. Calculating 1/5 of 75 gives us 15 students who will complete the nursing program. Therefore, the correct answer is 15. Choice A (75) is incorrect as it represents the total number of students majoring in nursing, not completing the program. Choices B (20) and D (5) are incorrect calculations and do not align with the information provided in the question.
5. Simplify the following expression: (2/7) ÷ (5/6)
- A. 2/5
- B. 35/15
- C. 5/21
- D. 12/35
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, (2/7) ÷ (5/6) becomes (2/7) × (6/5) = 12/35. Therefore, the correct answer is 12/35. Choice A (2/5), choice B (35/15), and choice C (5/21) are incorrect because they do not correctly simplify the given expression.
