1. If Hannah spends at least $16 on 4 packages of coffee, which of the following inequalities represents the possible costs?

• A. 16 ≥ 4p
• B. 16 < 4p
• C. 16 > 4p
• D. 16 ≤ 4p

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To represent the relationship between the number of packages of coffee and the minimum cost, the inequality can be written as 4p ≥ 16 (cost is at least $16). This inequality can also be expressed as 16 ≤ 4p, which reads as the cost being less than or equal to $16. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16 ≥ 4p) implies that the cost can be greater than or equal to $16, which does not align with the statement that Hannah spends at least $16. Choice B (16 < 4p) suggests that the cost is less than $16, which contradicts the given information. Choice C (16 > 4p) indicates that the cost is greater than $16, which is not accurate based on the scenario provided.

2. The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the students' exam scores and their heights. Which type of correlation is depicted in the scatter plot?

• A. Positive
• B. Positive and Negative
• C. Negative
• D. No correlation

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The scatter plot illustrates the relationship between students' exam scores and heights. There is no correlation between these variables, as height is not expected to have a direct impact on exam scores. Therefore, choice D, 'No correlation,' is the correct answer. Choices A, 'Positive,' and C, 'Negative,' are incorrect because the scatter plot does not indicate a positive or negative correlation between exam scores and heights. Choice B, 'Positive and Negative,' is also incorrect because the scatter plot does not exhibit both positive and negative correlations simultaneously.

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

• A. -271.906, -193.823, 145.884, 235.971
• B. -271.906, 235.971, -193.823, 145.884
• C. 145.884, -193.823, 235.971, -271.906
• D. -193.823, -271.906, 145.884, 235.971

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.

4. On a floor plan drawn at a scale of 1:100, the area of a rectangular room is 50 cm². What is the actual area of the room?

• A. 500 m²
• B. 50 m²
• C. 5000 cm²
• D. 500 cm²

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The scale of 1:100 means that 1 cm² on the floor plan represents 100 cm² in real life. To find the actual area of the room, you need to multiply the area on the floor plan by the square of the scale factor. Since the scale is 1:100, the scale factor is 100. Therefore, 50 cm² on the floor plan represents 50 * 100 = 5000 cm² in real life. Choice A (500 m²) is incorrect as it converts the area from cm² to m² without considering the scale factor. Choice B (50 m²) is incorrect as it does not account for the scale factor. Choice C (5000 cm²) is incorrect as it gives the area on the floor plan, not the actual area.

5. How many quarts are in 1 liter?

• A. 1 quart
• B. 1.06 quarts
• C. 2 quarts
• D. 0.5 quarts

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to quarts, you can use the conversion factor 1 liter ≈ 1.06 quarts. Therefore, 1 liter is approximately 1.06 quarts. Choice A is incorrect because 1 quart is not equivalent to 1 liter. Choice C is incorrect as 2 quarts is more than 1 liter. Choice D is incorrect as 0.5 quarts is half of 1 liter.
