1. Which of the following lists is in order from least to greatest? (1/7), 0.125, (6/9), 0.60
- A. (1/7), 0.125, (6/9), 0.60
- B. (1/7), 0.125, 0.60, (6/9)
- C. 0.125, (1/7), 0.60, 6/9
- D. 0.125, (1/7), (6/9), 0.60
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, convert all fractions to decimals and compare them. Converting the fractions: (1/7) ≈ 0.14, (6/9) ≈ 0.67. The decimals in order from least to greatest are: 0.125 < 0.14 < 0.60 < 0.67. Therefore, the correct order is 0.125, (1/7), 0.60, 6/9, making choice C the correct answer. Choice A is incorrect as it lists (1/7) before 0.125. Choice B is incorrect as it places 0.60 before (6/9). Choice D is incorrect as it lists (6/9) before 0.60.
2. A farmer plans to install fencing around a certain field. If each side of the hexagonal field is 320 feet long, and fencing costs $1.75 per foot, how much will the farmer need to spend on fencing material to enclose the perimeter of the field?
- A. $2,240
- B. $2,800
- C. $3,360
- D. $4,480
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the perimeter of a hexagonal field with 6 sides, multiply the length of one side (320 feet) by the number of sides (6): 320 x 6 = 1920 feet. The total cost of the fencing material can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter by the cost per foot: 1920 feet x $1.75 = $3360. Therefore, the farmer will need to spend $3,360 on fencing material to enclose the perimeter of the field. Choice A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the total cost based on the given measurements and cost per foot.
3. What is the mode of the data set: 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5?
- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 5
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The mode of a data set is the value that appears most frequently. In this data set (2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5), the number 4 appears three times, which is more frequent than any other number in the set. Therefore, the correct answer is 4. Choice A (2), B (3), and D (5) do not appear as frequently as 4 in the data set, so they are not the mode.
4. Which statement best describes the rate of change?
- A. Every day, the snow melts 10 centimeters.
- B. Every day, the snow melts 5 centimeters.
- C. Every day, the snow increases by 10 centimeters.
- D. Every day, the snow increases by 5 centimeters.
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The rate of change refers to how one quantity changes concerning another quantity. In this scenario, the rate of change is the amount of snow melting per day, which is 5 centimeters. This is determined by the slope of the graph, indicating a decrease in snow depth. Choices C and D incorrectly describe an increase in snow depth, while choice A exaggerates the rate of snow melting compared to the actual value of 5 centimeters per day.
5. Which of the following algebraic equations correctly represents the sentence 'Four more than a number, x, is 2 less than 1/3 of another number, y'?
- A. x + 4 = (1/3)y - 2
- B. 4x = 2 - (1/3)y
- C. 4 - x = 2 + (1/3)y
- D. x + 4 = 2 - (1/3)y
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To represent 'Four more than a number, x', we write x + 4. This is equal to '2 less than 1/3 of another number, y', which translates to 1/3y - 2. Therefore, the correct equation is x + 4 = (1/3)y - 2. Choice B is incorrect as it incorrectly combines the values of x and y. Choice C is incorrect as it doesn't properly relate x and y with the given conditions. Choice D is incorrect as it doesn't correctly represent the relationship between x and y according to the given statement.
