1. Express 3 5/7 as an improper fraction.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction, then add the numerator. In this case, 3 * 7 + 5 = 21 + 5 = 26. So, 3 5/7 as an improper fraction is 26/7. Choice B (21/7) is incorrect because it represents the original fraction 3 5/7. Choice C (22/7) is incorrect and represents a different fraction. Choice D (26/5) is incorrect and does not reflect the proper conversion of the mixed number to an improper fraction.

2. 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.

3. A store offers a 15% discount on all items. If an item costs $100, what is the price after the discount?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To calculate the price after the 15% discount on a $100 item, you first find 15% of $100, which is $15. Then, subtract $15 from the original price: $100 - $15 = $85. Therefore, the correct answer is $85. Choice A ($90), Choice C ($80), and Choice D ($75) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation of applying a 15% discount to the original $100 price.

4. A car dealership’s commercials claim that this year’s models are 20% off the list price, plus they will pay the first 3 monthly payments. If a car is listed for $26,580, and the monthly payments are set at $250, what is the total potential savings?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the total potential savings: First, find the 20% discount on the list price of $26,580: 0.20 × $26,580 = $5,316. Then, determine the savings over the first 3 months of payments: 3 months × $250/month = $750. Add the discount and the monthly payment savings to get the total potential savings: $5,316 + $750 = $6,066. Therefore, the correct answer is $6,066. Choice A, $1,282, is incorrect because it does not account for the total savings from both the discount and the monthly payments. Choice B, $5,566, is incorrect as it miscalculates the total savings by excluding the savings from the monthly payments. Choice D, $20,514, is incorrect as it does not consider the discount and only focuses on the list price.

5. Which of the following lists is in order from least to greatest? (1/7), 0.125, (6/9), 0.60

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, convert all fractions to decimals and compare them. Converting the fractions: (1/7) ≈ 0.14, (6/9) ≈ 0.67. The decimals in order from least to greatest are: 0.125 < 0.14 < 0.60 < 0.67. Therefore, the correct order is 0.125, (1/7), 0.60, 6/9, making choice C the correct answer. Choice A is incorrect as it lists (1/7) before 0.125. Choice B is incorrect as it places 0.60 before (6/9). Choice D is incorrect as it lists (6/9) before 0.60.
