TEAS Math Practice Test
1. Which of the following equations does not represent a function?
- A. y = x^2
- B. y = sqrt(x)
- C. x = y^2
- D. y = 2x + 1
Correct answer: C
Rationale: An equation represents a function if each input (x-value) corresponds to exactly one output (y-value). In the equation x = y^2, for a single x-value, there are two possible y-values (positive and negative square root), violating the definition of a function. This violates the vertical line test, where a vertical line intersects the graph in more than one point for non-functions. Choices A, B, and D all pass the vertical line test and represent functions, making them incorrect answers.
2. Arrange the following numbers from least to greatest: 7/3, 9/2, 10/9, 7/8
- A. 10/9, 7/3, 9/2, 7/8
- B. 9/2, 7/3, 10/9, 7/8
- C. 7/3, 9/2, 10/9, 7/8
- D. 7/8, 10/9, 7/3, 9/2
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To arrange the numbers from least to greatest, first convert them to decimals: 1. 7/3 is approximately 2.33 2. 9/2 equals 4.5 3. 10/9 is approximately 1.11 4. 7/8 equals 0.875 Now, arrange the decimals from least to greatest: 0.875 (7/8), 1.11 (10/9), 2.33 (7/3), 4.5 (9/2). Therefore, the correct order is 7/8, 10/9, 7/3, 9/2. Choice A is incorrect because it doesn't follow the correct order. Choice B is incorrect as it places 9/2 before 7/3, which is not the right arrangement. Choice C is incorrect as it places 7/3 before 9/2 and 10/9, which is incorrect. Thus, the correct answer is choice D.
3. How many kilometers is 4382 feet?
- A. 1.336 kilometers
- B. 14.376 kilometers
- C. 1.437 kilometers
- D. 13.336 kilometers
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert feet to kilometers, you need to divide the number of feet by 3280.84 (the number of feet in a kilometer). Therefore, 4382 feet is equal to 4382/3280.84 ≈ 1.336 kilometers. Choice B, 14.376 kilometers, is incorrect as it seems to be a miscalculation. Choice C, 1.437 kilometers, is also incorrect, as it is slightly off from the correct conversion. Choice D, 13.336 kilometers, is significantly higher than the correct answer and does not align with the conversion factor.
4. The length of a rectangle is 3 units greater than its width. Which expression correctly represents the perimeter of the rectangle?
- A. 2W + 2(W + 3)
- B. W + W + 3
- C. W(W + 3)
- D. 2W + 2(3W)
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all its sides. In this case, the length is 3 units greater than the width, so the length can be expressed as W + 3. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2W + 2(L), where L represents the length. Substituting W + 3 for L, the correct expression for the perimeter becomes 2W + 2(W + 3), which simplifies to 2W + 2W + 6 or 4W + 6. Choices B, C, and D do not correctly represent the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle. Choice B simply adds the width twice to 3, neglecting the length. Choice C multiplies the width by the sum of the width and 3, which is incorrect. Choice D combines the width and 3 times the width, which is not the correct formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.
5. After a hurricane, donations were collected and divided into various categories. If 23% of the funds went towards construction costs, what is the percentage donated to support construction?
- A. 0.49
- B. 0.23
- C. 0.18
- D. 0.1
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B (0.23). To find the percentage of funds donated for construction costs, we need to consider the given percentage, which is 23%. In decimal form, 23% is represented as 0.23. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not match the correct decimal equivalent of 23%, which is 0.23. It's essential to convert percentages to decimal form accurately to calculate the correct percentage of funds allocated for a specific purpose.
