1. When the weights of the newborn babies are graphed, the distribution of weights is symmetric with the majority of weights centered around a single peak. Which of the following describes the shape of this distribution?
- A. Uniform
- B. Bimodal
- C. Bell-shaped
- D. Skewed right
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Bell-shaped. A symmetric distribution with a single peak is characteristic of a bell-shaped distribution, also known as a normal distribution. This distribution forms a symmetrical, bell-like curve when graphed. Choice A, 'Uniform,' would describe a distribution where all values have equal probability. Choice B, 'Bimodal,' would indicate a distribution with two distinct peaks. Choice D, 'Skewed right,' suggests a distribution where the tail on the right side is longer or more pronounced, unlike the symmetrical bell-shaped distribution described in the question.
2. In a class of 48 students, there are 22 boys and 26 girls. What is the ratio of girls to boys in the class?
- A. 26:11
- B. 13:11
- C. 13:22
- D. 11:13
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the ratio of girls to boys, divide the number of girls by the number of boys: 26/22 = 13/11. Therefore, the correct ratio is 13:11. Choice A is incorrect as it includes an extra '00'. Choice C is incorrect as it reverses the order of girls to boys. Choice D is incorrect as it reverses the order and provides the ratio of boys to girls.
3. While at the local ice skating rink, Cora went around the rink 27 times in total. She slipped and fell 20 of the 27 times she skated around the rink. What approximate percentage of the times around the rink did Cora not slip and fall?
- A. 37%
- B. 74%
- C. 26%
- D. 15%
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the approximate percentage of the times Cora did not slip and fall, subtract the times she fell (20) from the total times around the rink (27), which gives 7. Then, divide the number of times she did not slip and fall (7) by the total times around the rink (27) and multiply by 100 to get the percentage. So, 7 divided by 27 equals 0.259, which rounds to approximately 26%. Therefore, the correct answer is 26%. Choice A (37%) is incorrect because it does not reflect the calculation based on the given information. Choice B (74%) is incorrect as it is not the result of the correct calculation. Choice D (15%) is incorrect as it does not match the calculated percentage based on the scenario provided.
4. 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?
- A. $50,210
- B. $48,443
- C. $43,225
- D. $40,210
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the total cost of Veronica's new car, you need to sum up all her expenses. So, $40,210 (base price) + $3,015 (surround sound system) + $5,218 (maintenance package) = $48,443. Therefore, the correct answer is $48,443. Choice A ($50,210) is incorrect as it incorrectly adds the base price to the other costs. Choice C ($43,225) is incorrect as it only includes the base price and the maintenance package, omitting the cost of the surround sound system. Choice D ($40,210) is incorrect as it only includes the base price of the car and not the additional costs for the surround sound system and maintenance package.
5. Bernard can make $80 per day. If he needs to make $300 and only works full days, how many days will this take?
- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 5
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find out how many days Bernard needs to work to make $300, we divide the total amount he needs by how much he makes per day: $300 / $80 = 3.75 days. Since Bernard can only work full days, he would need to work for 4 days to make $300. Therefore, the correct answer is 4 days. Choice A (2 days) is incorrect because it does not match the calculation based on his daily earnings. Choice B (3 days) is incorrect as the calculated result is not a whole number, so Bernard needs to work for more than 3 days. Choice D (5 days) is incorrect as it exceeds the calculated number of days needed to make $300.
