1. 4.67 miles is equivalent to how many kilometers to three significant digits?
- A. 7.514 km
- B. 7.51 km
- C. 2.90 km
- D. 2.902 km
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert miles to kilometers, we use the conversion factor of 1 mile ≈ 1.60934 km. Therefore, 4.67 miles * 1.60934 km/mile = 7.514 km. When rounded to three significant digits, the answer is 7.51 km. Choice A of 7.514 km is the correct conversion, but the question asked for the answer to be rounded to three significant digits, making choice B, 7.51 km, the most precise and correct option. Choices C and D are incorrect conversions and do not match the correct conversion of 4.67 miles to kilometers.
2. Simplify the expression: 2x + 3x - 5.
- A. 5x - 5
- B. 5x
- C. x - 5
- D. 2x - 5
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To simplify the expression 2𝑥 + 3𝑥 - 5, follow these steps: Identify and combine like terms. The terms 2𝑥 and 3𝑥 are both 'like terms' because they both contain the variable 𝑥. Add the coefficients of the like terms: 2𝑥 + 3𝑥 = 5𝑥. Simplify the expression. After combining the like terms, the expression becomes 5𝑥 - 5, which includes the simplified term 5𝑥 and the constant -5. Thus, the fully simplified expression is 5𝑥 - 5, making Option A the correct answer. This method ensures all terms are correctly simplified by combining similar elements and retaining constants.
3. A gumball machine contains red, orange, yellow, green, and blue gumballs. Twenty percent of the gumballs are red, 30% are orange, 5% are yellow, 10% are green, and the rest are blue. If there are a total of 120 gumballs, how many more blue gumballs are there than yellow gumballs?
- A. 48
- B. 30
- C. 42
- D. 36
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The percentage of blue gumballs is 35% (100% - 20% - 30% - 5% - 10% = 35%). If there are 120 gumballs, 35% of that is 42 blue gumballs. Since 5% are yellow gumballs, which is 6 gumballs, the difference between 42 blue gumballs and 6 yellow gumballs is 36 more blue gumballs. Therefore, the correct answer is 36. Choice A (48) is incorrect as it miscalculates the difference. Choice B (30) is incorrect as it does not consider the correct percentage of blue gumballs. Choice C (42) is incorrect as it miscalculates the difference between blue and yellow gumballs.
4. Mom's car drove 72 miles in 90 minutes. How fast did she drive in feet per second?
- A. 0.8 feet per second
- B. 48.9 feet per second
- C. 0.009 feet per second
- D. 70.4 feet per second
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert miles per hour to feet per second, you need to convert miles to feet and minutes to seconds. First, convert 72 miles to feet using the conversion factor 1 mile = 5280 feet: 72 miles * 5280 feet/mile = 380160 feet. Then, convert 90 minutes to seconds: 90 minutes * 60 seconds/minute = 5400 seconds. Now, to find the speed in feet per second, divide the distance traveled in feet by the time in seconds: 380160 feet / 5400 seconds = 70.4 feet per second. Therefore, the correct answer is 70.4 feet per second. Choice A, 0.8 feet per second, is incorrect as it is a much lower speed. Choice C, 0.009 feet per second, is also incorrect as it is too low. Choice D, 70.4 feet per second, would be correct if the conversion calculations were accurate, but in this case, it's not the correct answer.
5. What percentage of rainfall received during this timeframe is received during the month of October?
- A. 13.50%
- B. 15.10%
- C. 16.90%
- D. 17.7%
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To determine the percentage of rainfall received during the month of October, we must first calculate the total rainfall for October and the total rainfall for the entire timeframe. Given that the total rainfall for October is 18.9 inches and the total rainfall from January to November is 106.3 inches, we can proceed with the calculation. The percentage is calculated as (18.9/106.3) x 100 = 17.7%. Therefore, the correct answer is D, 17.7%. Choice A (13.50%), Choice B (15.10%), and Choice C (16.90%) are incorrect as they do not align with the accurate calculation based on the provided data.
