1. What is the volume of a ball with a diameter of 7 inches?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the volume of a sphere, the formula V = (4/3)πr³ is used, where r is the radius of the sphere. Given that the diameter of the ball is 7 inches, the radius (r) would be half of the diameter, which is 3.5 inches. Plugging this value into the formula: V = (4/3)π(3.5)³ = (4/3)π(42.875) ≈ 165.7 in³. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the volume of the ball with a diameter of 7 inches.

2. Which of the following options correctly orders the numbers below from least to greatest? 235.971, 145.884, -271.906, -193.823

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To correctly order the numbers from least to greatest, we start with the smallest number, which is -271.906, followed by -193.823, 145.884, and finally 235.971. Therefore, the correct order is -271.906, -193.823, 145.884, 235.971. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it incorrectly places 235.971 before -193.823. Choice C is incorrect as it starts with the largest number, 145.884. Choice D is incorrect as it starts with -193.823, which is not the smallest number in the list.

3. Simplify the following expression:

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To simplify the given expression, start by performing the division first: (2/3) ÷ (4/15) = (2/3) × (15/4) = 30/12 = 5/2. Next, multiply this result by 5/8: 5/2 × 5/8 = 25/16 = 1 9/16. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1 1/4) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified result. Choice C (2 1/8) is incorrect as it does not represent the simplified expression. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions in the original expression.

4. Bob decides to go into business selling lemonade. He buys a wooden stand for $45 and sets it up outside his house. He figures that the cost of lemons, sugar, and paper cups for each glass of lemonade sold will be 10¢. Which of these expressions describes his cost for making g glasses of lemonade?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The cost for making g glasses of lemonade includes the initial cost of the stand ($45) plus 10¢ for each glass of lemonade sold. Therefore, the expression that represents the cost for making g glasses of lemonade is $45 + $0.1 × g, which matches option A. Choice B, $44.90 × g, is incorrect as it does not account for the initial stand cost of $45. Choice C, $44.90 × g + 10¢, is incorrect because it does not include the initial stand cost and incorrectly adds an extra 10¢ for every glass. Choice D, $90, is incorrect as it does not consider the variable cost of 10¢ per glass and only represents the initial stand cost.

5. What percentage of the staff is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday if 35% are on vacation and 20% of the remainder are certified?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: After 35% of the staff are on vacation, 65% remain. Since 20% of the remaining staff are certified, you multiply 0.20 by 65% (0.20 * 65% = 0.13 or 13%). Therefore, the correct answer is 0.13 or 13%. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for the percentage of certified staff available. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly states the calculated percentage as 0.13 instead of 0.07.
