1. A sandwich shop earns $4 for every sandwich (s) it sells, $2 for every drink (d), and $1 for every cookie (c). If this is all the shop sells, which of the following equations represents what the shop’s revenue (r) is over three days?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Let s be the number of sandwiches sold. Each sandwich earns $4, so selling s sandwiches at $4 each results in revenue of $4s. Similarly, d drinks at $2 each give $2d of income, and cookies bring in $1c. Summing these values gives total revenue = 4s + 2d + 1c. Therefore, option A, r = 4s + 2d + 1c, correctly represents the shop's revenue. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly multiply the prices of each item by more than one day's sales, which would overstate the total revenue for a three-day period.

2. Dr. Lee observed that 30% of all his patients developed an infection after taking a certain antibiotic. He further noticed that 5% of those 30% required hospitalization to recover from the infection. What percentage of Dr. Lee's patients were hospitalized after taking the antibiotic?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Out of all the patients who took the antibiotic, 30% developed an infection. Among those with infections, 5% required hospitalization. To find the percentage of all patients hospitalized, we multiply the two percentages: 30% * 5% = 1.5%. Therefore, 1.5% of all patients were hospitalized. Choice A (1.50%) is the calculated percentage of all patients hospitalized, not 1.50%. Choice B (5%) is the percentage of patients who developed an infection and required hospitalization, not all patients. Choice D (30%) represents the initial percentage of patients who developed an infection, not the percentage hospitalized.

3. Which of the following equations does not represent a function?

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.

4. 67 miles is equivalent to how many kilometers to three significant digits?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert miles to kilometers, the conversion factor is 1 mile ≈ 1.609 kilometers. Therefore, to convert 67 miles to kilometers, you would multiply: 67 miles × 1.609 km/mile = 107.703 km. When rounded to three significant digits, this gives 108 km. Therefore, 67 miles is approximately 108 kilometers. Choice A is correct because it is the closest rounded value to three significant digits. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not match the calculated conversion of 108 km.

5. University Q has an extremely competitive nursing program. Historically, 3/4 of the students in each incoming class major in nursing, but only 1/3 of those who major in nursing actually complete the program. If this year’s incoming class has 100 students, how many students will complete the nursing program?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Out of 100 students, 3/4 major in nursing, which is 75 students (100 * 3/4 = 75). Among these 75 students, only 1/3 will complete the program. Therefore, 1/3 of 75 is 25. Hence, 25 students will complete the nursing program. Choice A (75) is incorrect because this represents the number of students majoring in nursing, not completing the program. Choices B (20) and D (5) are incorrect as they do not align with the calculation based on the given fractions and total number of students.
