Question ID 2937ef4f

one variable
ID: 2937ef4f
Hector used a tool called an auger to remove corn from a storage bin at a
constant rate. The bin contained 24,000 bushels of corn when Hector began to
use the auger. After 5 hours of using the auger, 19,350 bushels of corn
remained in the bin. If the auger continues to remove corn at this rate, what is
the total number of hours Hector will have been using the auger when
12,840 bushels of corn remain in the bin?
A. 3
B. 7
C. 8
D. 12
ID: 2937ef4f Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. After using the auger for 5 hours, Hector had removed 24,000 – 19,350 = 4,650 bushels of corn
from the storage bin. During the 5-hour period, the auger removed corn from the bin at a constant rate of
bushels per hour. Assuming the auger continues to remove corn at this rate, after x hours it will have
removed 930x bushels of corn. Because the bin contained 24,000 bushels of corn when Hector started using the auger,
the equation 24,000 – 930x = 12,840 can be used to find the number of hours, x, Hector will have been using the auger
when 12,840 bushels of corn remain in the bin. Subtracting 12,840 from both sides of this equation and adding 930x to
both sides of the equation yields 11,160 = 930x. Dividing both sides of this equation by 930 yields x = 12. Therefore,
Hector will have been using the auger for 12 hours when 12,840 bushels of corn remain in the storage bin.
Choice A is incorrect. Three hours after Hector began using the auger, 24,000 – 3(930) = 21,210 bushels of corn
remained, not 12,840. Choice B is incorrect. Seven hours after Hector began using the auger, 24,000 – 7(930) = 17,490
bushels of corn will remain, not 12,840. Choice C is incorrect. Eight hours after Hector began using the auger, 24,000 –
8(930) = 16,560 bushels of corn will remain, not 12,840.

$40 per unit, and the demand was 15,000 units when the selling price was $60
per unit. Based on the model, what is the demand, in units, when the selling
price is $55 per unit?
A. 16,250
B. 16,500
C. 16,750
D. 17,500
ID: 2b15d65f Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. Let the economist’s model be the linear function , where Q is the demand, P is the
selling price, m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the line in the xy-plane, where
. Two pairs of the selling price P and the demand Q are given. Using the coordinate pairs , two points that
satisfy the function are and . The slope m of the function can be found using the formula
. Substituting the given values into this formula yields , or .

Therefore, . The value of b can be found by substituting one of the points into the function.
Substituting the values of P and Q from the point yields , or
. Adding 10,000 to both sides of this equation yields . Therefore, the linear
function the economist used as the model is . Substituting 55 for P yields
. It follows that when the selling price is $55 per unit, the demand is 16,250 units.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect and may result from calculation or conceptual errors.

ID: 45cfb9de
Adam’s school is a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute bus ride away from his house.
The bus runs once every 30 minutes, and the number of minutes, w, that Adam
waits for the bus varies between 0 and 30. Which of the following inequalities
gives the values of w for which it would be faster for Adam to walk to school?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: 45cfb9de Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. It is given that w is the number of minutes that Adam waits for the bus. The total time it takes
Adam to get to school on a day he takes the bus is the sum of the minutes, w, he waits for the bus and the 5 minutes
the bus ride takes; thus, this time, in minutes, is w + 5. It is also given that the total amount of time it takes Adam to get
to school on a day that he walks is 20 minutes. Therefore, w + 5 > 20 gives the values of w for which it would be faster
for Adam to walk to school.
Choices A and B are incorrect because w – 5 is not the total length of time for Adam to wait for and then take the bus
to school. Choice C is incorrect because the inequality should be true when walking 20 minutes is faster than the time
it takes Adam to wait for and ride the bus, not less.

Question ID b7e6394d

one variable
ID: b7e6394d
Alan drives an average of 100 miles each week. His car can travel an average
of 25 miles per gallon of gasoline. Alan would like to reduce his weekly
expenditure on gasoline by $5. Assuming gasoline costs $4 per gallon, which
equation can Alan use to determine how many fewer average miles, m, he
should drive each week?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: b7e6394d Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. Since gasoline costs $4 per gallon, and since Alan’s car travels an average of 25 miles per gallon,
the expression gives the cost, in dollars per mile, to drive the car. Multiplying by m gives the cost for Alan to
drive m miles in his car. Alan wants to reduce his weekly spending by $5, so setting m equal to 5 gives the number
of miles, m, by which he must reduce his driving.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Choices A and B transpose the numerator and the denominator in the fraction. The
fraction would result in the unit miles per dollar, but the question requires a unit of dollars per mile. Choices A and
C set the expression equal to 95 instead of 5, a mistake that may result from a misconception that Alan wants to
reduce his driving by 5 miles each week; instead, the question says he wants to reduce his weekly expenditure by $5.

09.10.2024, 23:45
Choice C is correct. Because f is a linear function of x, the equation , where m and b are constants, can
be used to define the relationship between x and f (x). In this equation, m represents the increase in the value of f (x) for
every increase in the value of x by 1. From the table, it can be determined that the value of f (x) increases by 8 for every
increase in the value of x by 2. In other words, for the function f the value of m is , or 4. The value of b can be found
by substituting the values of x and f (x) from any row of the table and the value of m into the equation
and solving for b. For example, using , , and yields . Solving for b yields .
Therefore, the equation defining the function f can be written in the form .
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Any equation defining the linear function f must give values of f (x) for corresponding
values of x, as shown in each row of the table. According to the table, if , . However, substituting
into the equation given in choice A gives , or , not 13. Similarly, substituting into the
equation given in choice B gives , or , not 13.
Lastly, substituting into the equation given in choice D gives , or , not 13. Therefore, the
equations in choices A, B, and D cannot define f.

Rationale
Choice B is correct. Of the city’s total expense budget for one year, the city budgeted y million dollars for departmental
expenses and 201 million dollars for all other expenses. This means that the expression represents the total
expense budget, in millions of dollars, for one year. It’s given that the total expense budget for one year is x million
dollars. It follows then that the expression is equivalent to x, or . Subtracting y from both sides of
this equation yields . By the symmetric property of equality, this is the same as .
Choices A and C are incorrect. Because it’s given that the total expense budget for one year, x million dollars, is
comprised of the departmental expenses, y million dollars, and all other expenses, 201 million dollars, the expressions
and both must be equivalent to a value greater than 201 million dollars. Therefore, the equations
and aren’t true. Choice D is incorrect. The value of x must be greater than the value of y.
Therefore, can’t represent this relationship.

A dance teacher ordered outfits for students for a dance recital. Outfits for
boys cost $26, and outfits for girls cost $35. The dance teacher ordered a total
of 28 outfits and spent $881. If b represents the number of outfits the dance
teacher ordered for boys and g represents the number of outfits the dance
teacher ordered for girls, which of the following systems of equations can be
solved to find b and g ?
A.
B.
C.

ID: ee031767 Answer

Correct Answer: B
Rationale
Choice B is correct. Outfits for boys cost $26 each and the teacher ordered b outfits for boys, so the teacher spent 26b

09.10.2024, 23:45
dollars on outfits for boys. Similarly, outfits for girls cost $35 each and the teacher ordered g outfits for girls, so the
teacher spent 35g dollars on outfits for girls. Since the teacher spent a total of $881 on outfits for boys and girls, the
equation 26b + 35g = 881 must be true. And since the teacher ordered a total of 28 outfits, the equation b + g = 28 must
also be true.
Choice A is incorrect and may result from switching the constraint on the total number of outfits with the constraint on
the cost of the outfits. Choice C is incorrect and may result from switching the constraint on the total number of outfits
with the constraint on the cost of the outfits, as well as switching the cost of the outfits for boys with the cost of the
outfits for girls. Choice D is incorrect and may result from switching the cost of the outfits for boys with the cost of the

A clothing store is having a sale on shirts and pants. During the sale, the cost
of each shirt is $15 and the cost of each pair of pants is $25. Geoff can spend
at most $120 at the store. If Geoff buys s shirts and p pairs of pants, which of
the following must be true?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: 84d0d07e Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. Since the cost of each shirt is $15 and Geoff buys s shirts, the expression represents the
amount Geoff spends on shirts. Since the cost of each pair of pants is $25 and Geoff buys p pairs of pants, the
expression represents the amount Geoff spends on pants. Therefore, the sum represents the total
amount Geoff spends at the store. Since Geoff can spend at most $120 at the store, the total amount he spends must
be less than or equal to 120. Thus, .
Choice B is incorrect. This represents the situation in which Geoff spends at least, rather than at most, $120 at the
store. Choice C is incorrect and may result from reversing the cost of a shirt and that of a pair of paints. Choice D is
incorrect and may result from both reversing the cost of a shirt and that of a pair of pants and from representing a
situation in which Geoff spends at least, rather than at most, $120 at the store.

The table above shows some pairs of x values and y values. Which of the
following equations could represent the relationship between x and y ?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: b2de69bd Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. Each of the choices is a linear equation in the form y = mx + b, where m and b are constants. In this

09.10.2024, 23:45
equation, m represents the change in y for each increase in x by 1. From the table, it can be determined that the value
of y increases by 2 for each increase in x by 1. In other words, for the pairs of x and y in the given table, m = 2. The
value of b can be found by substituting the values of x and y from any row of the table and substituting the value of m
into the equation y = mx + b and then solving for b. For example, using x = 1, y = 5, and m = 2 yields 5 = 2(1) + b. Solving
for b yields b = 3. Therefore, the equation y = 2x + 3 could represent the relationship between x and y in the given table.
Alternatively, if an equation represents the relationship between x and y, then when each pair of x and y from the table
is substituted into the equation, the result will be a true statement. Of the equations given, the equation y = 2x + 3 in
choice A is the only equation that results in a true statement when each of the pairs of x and y are substituted into the
equation.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because when at least one pair of x and y from the table is substituted into the
equations given in these choices, the result is a false statement. For example, when the pair x = 4 and y = 11 is
substituted into the equation in choice B, the result is 11 = 3(4) – 2, or 11 = 10, which is false.

An elementary school teacher is ordering x workbooks and y sets of flash cards

for a math class. The teacher must order at least 20 items, but the total cost of
the order must not be over $80. If the workbooks cost $3 each and the flash
cards cost $4 per set, which of the following systems of inequalities models
this situation?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: e744499e Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale

09.10.2024, 23:45
Choice A is correct. The total number of workbooks and sets of flash cards ordered is represented by x + y. Since the
teacher must order at least 20 items, it must be true that x + y ≥ 20. Each workbook costs $3; therefore, 3x represents
the cost, in dollars, of x workbooks. Each set of flashcards costs $4; therefore, 4y represents the cost, in dollars, of y
sets of flashcards. It follows that the total cost for x workbooks and y sets of flashcards is 3x + 4y. Since the total cost
of the order must not be over $80, it must also be true that 3x + 4y ≤ 80. Of the choices given, these inequalities are
shown only in choice A.
Choice B is incorrect. The second inequality says that the total cost must be greater, not less than or equal to $80.
Choice C incorrectly limits the cost by the minimum number of items and the number of items with the maximum cost.
Choice D is incorrect. The first inequality incorrectly says that at most 20 items must be ordered, and the second
inequality says that the total cost of the order must be at least, not at most, $80.

ID: 0df106df Answer

Correct Answer: B
Rationale
Choice B is correct. Let n be the number of novels and m be the number of magazines that Sadie purchased. If Sadie
purchased a total of 11 novels and magazines, then . It is given that the combined price of 11 novels and
magazines is $20. Since each novel sells for $4 and each magazine sells for $1, it follows that . So the
system of equations below must hold.
Subtracting corresponding sides of the second equation from the first equation yields , so . Therefore,
Sadie purchased 3 novels.
Choice A is incorrect. If 2 novels were purchased, then a total of $8 was spent on novels. That leaves $12 to be spent
on magazines, which means that 12 magazines would have been purchased. However, Sadie purchased a total of 11
novels and magazines. Choices C and D are incorrect. If 4 novels were purchased, then a total of $16 was spent on

the airline sold 120 tickets and collected a total of $27,600 from the sale of
those tickets. Which system of equations represents this relationship between
x and y ?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: 7d89376f Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. The airline sold two types of tickets for this flight: x tickets at $90 each and the remaining tickets,
y, at $250 each. Because the airline sold a total of 120 tickets for this flight, it must be true that x + y = 120. The
amount, in dollars, collected from the sale of x tickets at $90 each is represented by 90x. The amount, in dollars,
collected from the sale of the remaining y tickets at $250 each is represented by 250y. It is given that a total of $27,600
was collected from the sale of all tickets. Therefore, it must also be true that 90x + 250y = 27,600.
Choice B is incorrect. The total number of tickets sold is represented correctly as x + y = 120. The total amount, in
dollars, collected from the sale of the x tickets at $90 each and the remaining tickets, y, at $250 has been correctly
represented as 90x + 250y. However, according to the information given, this total should be equal to 27,600, not
120(27,600) dollars. Choice C is incorrect. The total number of tickets sold has been correctly represented as x + y.
However, according to the information given, this total should be equal to 120, not 27,600, as shown in choice C. The
total amount, in dollars, collected from the sale of the x tickets at $90 each and the remaining tickets, y, at $250 has
been correctly represented as 90x + 250y. However, according to the information given, this total should be equal to

A movie theater charges $11 for each full-price ticket and $8.25 for each
reduced-price ticket. For one movie showing, the theater sold a total of 214 full-
price and reduced-price tickets for $2,145. Which of the following systems of
equations could be used to determine the number of full-price tickets, f, and the
number of reduced-price tickets, r, sold?
A.
B.
C.
D.
ID: 17f176ec Answer

Correct Answer: B
Rationale
Choice B is correct. The movie theater sells f full-price tickets and r reduced-price tickets, so the total number of tickets
sold is f + r. Since the movie theater sold a total of 214 full-price and reduced-price tickets for one movie showing, it
follows that f + r = 214. The movie theater charges $11 for each full-price ticket; thus, the sales for full-price tickets, in
dollars, is given by 11f. The movie theater charges $8.25 for each reduced-price ticket; thus, the sales for reduced-price
tickets, in dollars, is given by 8.25r. Therefore, the total sales, in dollars, for the movie showing is given by 11f + 8.25r.
Since the total sales for all full-price and reduced-price tickets is $2,145, it follows that 11f + 8.25r = 2,145.
Choice A is incorrect. This system of equations suggests that the movie theater sold a total of 2,145 full-price and
reduced-price tickets for a total of $214. Choice C is incorrect. This system suggests that the movie theater charges
$8.25 for each full-price ticket and $11 for each reduced-price ticket. Choice D is incorrect. This system suggests that
the movie theater charges $8.25 for each full-price ticket and $11 for each reduced-price ticket and sold a total of 2,145
tickets for a total of $214.

What is the value of b ?
A. 40
B. 50
C. 65
D. 80
ID: 3828f53d Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. Given that lines m and n are parallel, the angle marked 130° must be supplementary to the
leftmost angle marked a° because they are same-side interior angles. Therefore, 130° + a° = 180°, which yields a = 50°.
Lines and m intersect at a right angle, so lines j, , and m form a right triangle where the two acute angles are a° and
b°. The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary, so a° + b° = 90°, which yields 50° + b° = 90°, and b = 40.
Choice B is incorrect. This is the value of a, not b. Choice C is incorrect and may be the result of dividing 130° by 2.
Choice D is incorrect and may be the result of multiplying b by 2.

ID: 6670e407 Answer

Correct Answer: C
Rationale
Choice C is correct. The mean of a data set is found by dividing the sum of the values by the number of values.

A. Median of the high temperatures
B. Mean of the high temperatures
C. Mode of the high temperatures
D. Range of the high temperatures
ID: 869a32f1 Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. The range of a data set is the difference between the maximum and the minimum values in the set.
The maximum value among the high temperatures in the table is 82°F and the minimum value is 80°F. Therefore, the
range is 82°F – 80°F = 2°F.
Choice A is incorrect. The median of a data set is the middle value when the values in the set are ordered from least to
greatest. Ordering the high temperatures this way gives the list 80, 81, 81, 81, 82. Therefore, the median high
temperature is 81°F. Choice B is incorrect. The mean high temperature is .

Choice C is incorrect. The mode is the value that occurs the greatest number of times. For the set of high temperatures

A bag contains a total of 60 marbles. A marble is to be chosen at random from

the bag. If the probability that a blue marble will be chosen is 0.35, how many
marbles in the bag are blue?
A. 21
B. 25
C. 35
D. 39
ID: 1dcea480 Answer
Rationale
Choice A is correct. Multiplying the number of marbles in the bag by the probability of selecting a blue marble gives the
number of blue marbles in the bag. Since the bag contains a total of 60 marbles and the probability that a blue marble
will be selected from the bag is 0.35, there are a total of blue marbles in the bag.
Choice B is incorrect and may result from subtracting 35 from 60. Choice C is incorrect. This would be the number of
blue marbles in the bag if there were a total of 100 marbles, not 60 marbles. Choice D is incorrect. This is the number
of marbles in the bag that aren’t blue.

elevation of 8 different locations in the Lake Tahoe Basin. A line of best fit for
the data is also shown. Which of the following statements best describes the
association between the elevation and the temperature of locations in the Lake
Tahoe Basin?
A. As the elevation increases, the temperature tends to increase.
B. As the elevation increases, the temperature tends to decrease.
C. As the elevation decreases, the temperature tends to decrease.
D. There is no association between the elevation and the temperature.
ID: 661dfddd Answer

C. Most people who dislike this book will like this movie.
D. Most people who like this book will dislike this movie.
ID: 82dfb646 Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. The sample was selected from a group of people who indicated that they liked the book. It is
inappropriate to generalize the result of the survey beyond the population from which the participants were selected.
Choice D is the most appropriate inference from the survey results because it describes a conclusion about people
who liked the book, and the results of the survey indicate that most people who like the book disliked the movie.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because none of these inferences can be drawn from the survey results. Choices A
and B need not be true. The people surveyed all liked the book on which the movie was based, which is not necessarily
true of all people who go see movies or all people who read books. Thus, the people surveyed are not representative of
all people who go see movies or all people who read books. Therefore, the results of this survey cannot appropriately
be extended to at least 95% of people who go see movies or to at least 95% of people who read books. Choice C need
not be true because the sample includes only people who liked the book, and so the results do not extend to people

B. $562.50
C. $5,625.00
D. $98,000.00
ID: 3ac09984 Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. At the exchange rate of 1 peso = 0.075 US dollars, 7,500 pesos would be converted to 7,500 ×
0.075 = $562.50. However, since Maria pays a 2% fee on the converted US dollar amount, she receives only (100 – 2)%,
or 98%, of the converted US dollars, and 562.50 × 0.98 = $551.25.
Choice B is incorrect. This is the number of US dollars Maria would receive if the exchange service did not charge a 2%
fee. Choice C is incorrect and may result from a decimal point error made when calculating the conversion to US
dollars and from not assessing the 2% fee. Choice D is incorrect and may result from reversing the units of the

the total number of trees in the forest is the product of the mean number of trees per acre in the sample and the total
number of acres in the forest. This is (56)(253) = 14,168, which is between 13,500 and 14,500.
Choice A is incorrect and may result from multiplying the minimum number of trees per acre in the sample, 45, by the
number of acres, 253. Choice B is incorrect and may result from multiplying the median number of trees per acre in the
sample, 52, by the number of acres, 253. Choice D is incorrect and may result from multiplying the maximum number
of trees per acre in the sample, 73, by the number of acres, 253.

To make a bakery’s signature chocolate muffins, a baker needs 2.5 ounces of

chocolate for each muffin. How many pounds of chocolate are needed to make
48 signature chocolate muffins? (1 pound = 16 ounces)
A. 7.5
B. 10
C. 50.5
D. 120
ID: 06a152cd Answer

Correct Answer: A
Rationale
Choice A is correct. If 2.5 ounces of chocolate are needed for each muffin, then the number of ounces of chocolate
needed to make 48 muffins is ounces. Since 1 pound = 16 ounces, the number of pounds that is
equivalent to 120 ounces is pounds. Therefore, 7.5 pounds of chocolate are needed to make the 48
muffins.
Choice B is incorrect. If 10 pounds of chocolate were needed to make 48 muffins, then the total number of ounces of
chocolate needed would be ounces. The number of ounces of chocolate per muffin would then be
ounces per muffin, not 2.5 ounces per muffin. Choices C and D are also incorrect. Following the same
procedures as used to test choice B gives 16.8 ounces per muffin for choice C and 40 ounces per muffin for choice D,
not 2.5 ounces per muffin. Therefore, 50.5 and 120 pounds cannot be the number of pounds needed to make 48
signature chocolate muffins.

According to the line graph above, between which two consecutive years was
there the greatest change in the number of 3‑D movies released?
A. 2003–2004
B. 2008–2009
C. 2009–2010
D. 2010–2011
ID: a6b2fcce Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. The change in the number of 3-D movies released between any two consecutive years can be
found by first estimating the number of 3-D movies released for each of the two years and then finding the positive
difference between these two estimates. Between 2003 and 2004, this change is approximately movies;
between 2008 and 2009, this change is approximately movies; between 2009 and 2010, this change is
approximately movies; and between 2010 and 2011, this change is approximately movies.
Therefore, of the pairs of consecutive years in the choices, the greatest increase in the number of 3-D movies released
occurred during the time period between 2010 and 2011.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Between 2010 and 2011, approximately 20 more 3-D movies were released. The
change in the number of 3-D movies released between any of the other pairs of consecutive years is significantly
smaller than 20.

Which of the following statements correctly compares the

means of data set A and data set B?
A. The mean of each data set is 2.
B. The mean of each data set is 4.
C. The mean of data set A is less than the mean of data set B.
D. The mean of data set A is greater than the mean of data set B.
ID: 708590d7 Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. The mean of a data set is found by dividing the sum of the values in the data set by the number of
values in the data set. Therefore, the mean of data set A is , or 4. The mean of data
set B is , or approximately 2.2857. Therefore, the mean of data set A is greater than
the mean of data set B.
Alternate approach: Data set A and data set B are both ordered from least to greatest value. Besides the first value in
each data set, which is 1, each value in ordered data set B is less than the respective value in ordered data set A.
Therefore, conceptually, the mean of data set A must be greater than the mean of data set B.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect and may result from various misconceptions or miscalculations.

majority of those sampled were in favor of the dog park. Which of the following
is true about the city council’s survey?
A. It shows that the majority of city residents are in favor of the dog park.
B. The survey sample should have included more residents who are dog owners.
C. The survey sample should have consisted entirely of residents who do not own dogs.
D. The survey sample is biased because it is not representative of all city residents.
ID: 9bf4c545 Answer

Correct Answer: D
Rationale
Choice D is correct. The members of the city council wanted to assess opinions of all city residents. To gather an
unbiased sample, the council should have used a random sampling design to select subjects from all city residents.
The given survey introduced a sampling bias because the 500 city residents surveyed were all dog owners. This sample
is not representative of all city residents because not all city residents are dog owners.
Choice A is incorrect because when the sampling method isn’t random, there is no guarantee that the survey results
will be reliable; hence, they cannot be generalized to the entire population. Choice B is incorrect because a larger
sample of residents who are dog owners would not correct the sampling bias. Choice C is incorrect because a survey
sample of entirely non–dog owners would likely have a biased opinion, just as a sample of dog owners would likely
have a biased opinion.

The weight of an object on Jupiter is approximately of its weight on Earth.

If an object weighs 100 pounds on Earth, approximately how many more
pounds does it weigh on Jupiter than it weighs on Venus?
A. 90
B. 111
C. 140
D. 230
ID: 24ad9dcb Answer

Correct Answer: C
Rationale
Choice C is correct. The weight of an object on Venus is approximately of its weight on Earth. If an object weighs
100 pounds on Earth, then the object’s weight on Venus is approximately pounds. The same object’s
weight on Jupiter is approximately of its weight on Earth; therefore, the object weighs approximately
pounds on Jupiter. The difference between the object’s weight on Jupiter and the object’s weight on
Venus is approximately pounds. Therefore, an object that weighs 100 pounds on Earth weighs 140
more pounds on Jupiter than it weighs on Venus.
Choice A is incorrect because it is the weight, in pounds, of the object on Venus. Choice B is incorrect because it is the
weight, in pounds, of an object on Earth if it weighs 100 pounds on Venus. Choice D is incorrect because it is the
weight, in pounds, of the object on Jupiter.

A total of 25 men registered for singing lessons. The frequency table shows
how many of these singers have certain voice types. If one of these singers is
selected at random, what is the probability he is a baritone?
A. 0.10
B. 0.40
C. 0.60
D. 0.67
ID: 16cea46c Answer

Correct Answer: B
Rationale
Choice B is correct. This probability is calculated by dividing the number of baritone singers by the total number of men
registered for singing lessons. It’s given that a total of 25 men registered for singing lessons and that there are 10
baritones. Therefore, the probability of selecting a baritone from this group at random is , which is equivalent to
0.40.
Choice A is incorrect. This would be the probability of selecting a baritone at random if there were 100 total men who
registered for singing lessons. Choice C is incorrect. This is the probability of selecting a singer at random who isn’t a
baritone. Choice D is incorrect. This would be the probability of selecting a baritone at random if there were 15 total
men registered for singing lessons.

plant diversity is greatest?
A. 13,500
B. 3,000
C. 1,250
D. 250
ID: ebe4bde0 Answer

Correct Answer: C
Rationale

09.10.2024, 23:45
Choice C is correct. Each point on the graph represents the elevation x, in meters, and the corresponding
measure of plant diversity y in a region of Switzerland. Therefore, the point on the graph with the greatest y-coordinate
represents the location that has the greatest measure of plant diversity in the region. The greatest y-coordinate of any
point on the graph is approximately 13,500. The x-coordinate of that point is approximately 1,250. Therefore, the
closest elevation at which the plant diversity is the greatest is 1,250 meters.
Choice A is incorrect. This value is closest to the greatest y-coordinate of any point on the graph and therefore
represents the greatest measure of plant diversity, not the elevation where the greatest measure of plant diversity
occurs. Choice B is incorrect. At an elevation of 3,000 meters the measure of plant diversity is approximately 4,000.
Because there are points on the graph with greater y-coordinates, 4,000 can’t be the greatest measure of plant diversity,
and 3,000 meters isn’t the elevation at which the greatest measure of plant diversity occurs. Choice D is incorrect. At an
elevation of 250 meters, the measure of plant diversity is approximately 11,000. Because there are points on the graph
with greater y-coordinates, 11,000 can’t be the greatest measure of plant diversity and 250 meters isn’t the elevation at
which the greatest measure of plant diversity occurs.

Question ID 3de7a7d7

in one variable and
systems of
equations in two
variables
ID: 3de7a7d7
Which of the following is a solution to the

equation ?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
ID: 3de7a7d7 Answer

Correct Answer: B
Rationale
Choice B is correct. Subtracting x2 from both sides of the given equation yields x2 – 4 = 0. Adding 4 to both sides of the
equation gives x2 = 4. Taking the square root of both sides of the equation gives x = 2 or x = –2. Therefore, x = 2 is one
solution to the original equation.
Alternative approach: Subtracting x2 from both sides of the given equation yields x2 – 4 = 0. Factoring this equation
gives x2 – 4 = (x + 2)(x – 2) = 0, such that x = 2 or x = –2. Therefore, x = 2 is one solution to the original equation.
Choices A, C, and D are incorrect and may be the result of computation errors.

many solutions, what is the value of a ?
A. 4
B. 9
C. 36
D. 54
ID: 4b76c7f1 Answer

Correct Answer: C
Rationale
Choice C is correct. A system of two linear equations has infinitely many solutions if one equation is equivalent to the
other. This means that when the two equations are written in the same form, each coefficient or constant in one
equation is equal to the corresponding coefficient or constant in the other equation multiplied by the same number. The
equations in the given system of equations are written in the same form, with x and y on the left-hand side of the
equation and a constant on the right-hand side of the equation. The coefficients of x and y in the second equation are
equal to the coefficients of x and y, respectively, in the first equation multiplied by 4: and . Therefore,
the constant in the second equation must be equal to 4 times the constant in the first equation: , or .
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. When , , or , the given system of equations has no solution.
