1. Jeremy put a heavy chalk mark on the tire of his bicycle. His bike tire is 27 inches in diameter. When he rolled the bike, the chalk left marks on the sidewalk. Which expression can be used to best determine the distance, in inches, the bike rolled from the first mark to the fourth mark?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The distance traveled by the bike in one complete roll of the tire is equal to the circumference, which can be calculated using the formula C = πd, where d is the diameter. Given that the diameter of the bike tire is 27 inches, the circumference is obtained by multiplying the diameter by π. As the tire rolls from the first mark to the fourth mark, it completes three full rotations (one complete roll plus two more). Therefore, the total distance rolled is 3 times the circumference, which results in 3(27π). Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies the diameter by 4π instead of multiplying the circumference by 4. Choices C and D are incorrect as they involve dividing the diameter by a number, which is not applicable in this context.

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. At the beginning of the day, Xavier has 20 apples. At lunch, he meets his sister Emma and gives her half of his apples. After lunch, he stops by his neighbor Jim's house and gives him 6 of his apples. He then uses 3/4 of his remaining apples to make an apple pie for dessert at dinner. At the end of the day, how many apples does Xavier have left?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Xavier gives away half of his 20 apples (10), then gives 6 more apples, leaving him with 4 apples. He uses 3/4 of the remaining 4 apples (3) for the pie, leaving him with 1 apple at the end of the day. Therefore, the correct answer is 1. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the calculations of apples given away and used for the pie, resulting in the remaining amount of 1 apple.

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. Robert scores three new clients every eight months. After how many months has he secured 24 new clients?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out the number of months needed to secure 24 new clients, you can set up a proportion: 3 clients / 8 months = 24 clients / x months. Cross multiplying gives you 3x = 24 * 8. Solving for x: 3x = 192, x = 192 / 3, x = 64. Therefore, Robert will secure 24 new clients after 64 months. Choice A is correct. Choice B (58), Choice C (52), and Choice D (66) are incorrect as they do not align with the correct calculation based on the given proportion.
