1. How can you visually differentiate between a histogram and a bar graph?
- A. A bar graph has gaps between the bars; a histogram does not
- B. A bar graph displays frequency; a histogram does not
- C. A histogram illustrates comparison; a bar graph does not
- D. A bar graph includes labels; a histogram does not
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The key difference between a histogram and a bar graph is that a bar graph has gaps between the bars, while a histogram does not. This feature helps in visually distinguishing between the two. Choice B is incorrect because both types of graphs can show frequency. Choice C is incorrect as both graphs can be used for comparison. Choice D is incorrect as both types of graphs can have labels for better understanding.
2. During January, Dr. Lewis worked 20 shifts. During February, she worked three times as many shifts as she did during January. During March, she worked half the number of shifts she worked during February. Which equation below describes the number of shifts Dr. Lewis worked in March?
- A. shifts = 20 + 3 + 1/2
- B. shifts = (20)(3)(1/2)
- C. shifts = (20)(3) + 1/2
- D. shifts = 20 + (3)(1/2)
Correct answer: B
Rationale: During January, Dr. Lewis worked 20 shifts. Shifts for January = 20. During February, she worked three times as many shifts as she did during January. Shifts for February = (20)(3) = 60. During March, she worked half the number of shifts she worked in February. Shifts for March = (60)(1/2) = 30. Therefore, the correct equation to describe the number of shifts Dr. Lewis worked in March is 'shifts = (20)(3)(1/2)', representing the calculation based on the given scenario. Choices A, C, and D do not accurately represent the correct mathematical relationship between the shifts worked in the different months, making them incorrect.
3. Veronica is making a holiday schedule. 35% of staff members will be on vacation, and 20% of the remainder are certified to work. What percentage of the staff is certified and available?
- A. 0.07
- B. 0.13
- C. 0.65
- D. 0.8
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the percentage of staff certified and available, we first calculate the percentage of staff members not on vacation, which is 100% - 35% = 65%. Then, 20% of this group is certified to work, which is 20% of 65% = 0.20 * 65% = 13%. Therefore, Veronica has 13% of the staff certified and available to work. The correct answer is 0.13 (or 13%). Choice C (0.65) is incorrect because it represents the percentage of staff members not on vacation, not the percentage that is certified and available. Choice D (0.8) is incorrect as it is not the correct percentage of staff members certified and available. Choice B (0.13) is the correct answer, not choice A (0.07), as 0.07 represents 7%, not 13%.
4. What defines a composite number?
- A. A number with only two factors
- B. A number that is a fraction
- C. A number with more than 2 factors
- D. A number with exactly two factors
Correct answer: C
Rationale: A composite number is a positive integer greater than one that has more than two factors. Choice A is incorrect because a number with only two factors is a prime number. Choice B is incorrect as being a fraction does not define a composite number. Choice D is incorrect because a number with exactly two factors is a prime number, not a composite number.
5. Margery is planning a vacation, and her round-trip airfare will cost $572. Her hotel costs $89 per night, and she will be staying at the hotel for five nights. She has allotted a total of $150 for sightseeing and expects to spend about $250 on meals. She will receive a 10% discount on the hotel price after the first night. What is the total amount Margery expects to spend on her vacation?
- A. $1,328.35
- B. $1,373.50
- C. $1,381.40
- D. $1,417.60
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To calculate Margery's total expenses: Airfare ($572) + Hotel ($89 * 5 nights) = $572 + $445 = $1017. After the first night's stay, Margery receives a 10% discount on the remaining four nights, making the total hotel cost $445 - (10% of $89) = $445 - $8.90 = $436.10. Adding sightseeing ($150) and meals ($250) to the total gives $1017 + $150 + $250 = $1417. Margery's expected expenses are $1417, not $1381.40 as stated in the original rationale. Therefore, the correct answer is $1,417.60 (Option D).
