1. 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?
- A. $45 + $0.1 × g
- B. $44.90 × g
- C. $44.90 × g + 10¢
- D. $90
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.
2. A lab technician took 500 milliliters of blood from a patient. The technician used 16.66% of the blood for further tests. How many milliliters of blood were used for further tests? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
- A. 83
- B. 83.3
- C. 83.33
- D. 83.34
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the amount of blood used for further tests, we multiply 500 mL by 0.1666 (equivalent to 16.66%). This calculation results in 83.3, which rounded to the nearest hundredth is 83.33. Therefore, 83.33 milliliters of blood were used for further tests. Choice A is incorrect as it does not consider rounding to the nearest hundredth. Choices B and D are slightly off due to incorrect rounding. Choice C is the correct answer after rounding to the nearest hundredth.
3. What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 cm and a height of 7 cm?
- A. 70 cm²
- B. 35 cm²
- C. 140 cm²
- D. 100 cm²
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the area of a triangle, you use the formula A = 1/2 × base × height. Substituting the given values: A = 1/2 × 10 cm × 7 cm = 35 cm². Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (70 cm²) is incorrect as it seems to be the product of the base and height rather than the area formula. Choice C (140 cm²) is incorrect as it appears to be twice the correct answer, possibly a result of a miscalculation. Choice D (100 cm²) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation based on the given base and height values.
4. Simplify the following expression: 0.0178 × 2.401
- A. 2.0358414
- B. 0.0427378
- C. 0.2341695
- D. 0.348324
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To simplify the expression 0.0178 × 2.401, you multiply the two numbers to get the result. Therefore, 0.0178 × 2.401 = 0.0427378. Choice A (2.0358414), Choice C (0.2341695), and Choice D (0.348324) are incorrect as they do not represent the correct result of the multiplication operation.
5. While at the local ice skating rink, Cora went around the rink 27 times in total. She slipped and fell 20 of the 27 times she skated around the rink. What approximate percentage of the times around the rink did Cora not slip and fall?
- A. 37%
- B. 74%
- C. 26%
- D. 15%
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the approximate percentage of the times Cora did not slip and fall, subtract the times she fell (20) from the total times around the rink (27), which gives 7. Then, divide the number of times she did not slip and fall (7) by the total times around the rink (27) and multiply by 100 to get the percentage. So, 7 divided by 27 equals 0.259, which rounds to approximately 26%. Therefore, the correct answer is 26%. Choice A (37%) is incorrect because it does not reflect the calculation based on the given information. Choice B (74%) is incorrect as it is not the result of the correct calculation. Choice D (15%) is incorrect as it does not match the calculated percentage based on the scenario provided.
