1. There are 80 mg in 0.8 mL of Acetaminophen Concentrated Infant Drops. If the proper dosage for a four-year-old child is 240 mg, how many milliliters should the child receive?

A. 0.8 mL
B. 1.6 mL
C. 2.4 mL
D. 3.2 mL

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find out how many milliliters the child should receive, divide the total required dosage of 240 mg by the concentration of the medication, which is 80 mg per 0.8 mL. 240 mg ÷ 80 mg/mL = 3 mL. Since each dose is 0.8 mL, the total dosage for the child would be 3 doses x 0.8 mL per dose = 2.4 mL. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.4 mL. Choice A (0.8 mL) is the concentration of the medication, not the total dose. Choices B (1.6 mL) and D (3.2 mL) are incorrect calculations that do not consider the concentration of the medication and the total required dosage correctly.

2. A couple dining at a restaurant receives a bill for $58.60. They wish to leave a 16% gratuity. Which of the following is the estimated gratuity?

A. $8.48
B. $6.40
C. $9.38
D. $7.00

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To calculate a 16% gratuity on a bill of $58.60, you multiply $58.60 by 0.16, which equals $9.376. Rounding this to the nearest cent gives $9.38. Therefore, the estimated gratuity is $9.38. Choice A is incorrect as it does not accurately reflect the calculated amount. Choice B is also incorrect as it does not match the correct calculation. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the nearest estimated value to the calculated amount.

3. Sally wants to buy a used truck for her delivery business. Truck A is priced at $450 and gets 25 miles per gallon. Truck B costs $650 and gets 35 miles per gallon. If gasoline costs $4 per gallon, how many miles must Sally drive to make truck B the better buy?

A. 500
B. 7500
C. 1750
D. 4375

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To determine the breakeven point where Truck B becomes the better buy, we need to compare the total costs for both trucks. For Truck A: Total cost = $450 + (miles / 25) * $4. For Truck B: Total cost = $650 + (miles / 35) * $4. To find the point where Truck B is the better buy, set the two total cost equations equal to each other and solve for miles. By solving this equation, we find that Sally must drive 4375 miles for Truck B to be the better buy. Choice A (500) is too low, Choice B (7500) is too high, and Choice C (1750) does not represent the breakeven point where Truck B becomes more cost-effective.

4. Given the histograms shown below, which of the following statements is true?

A. Group A is negatively skewed and has a mean less than Group B.
B. Group A is positively skewed and has a mean greater than Group B.
C. Group B is negatively skewed and has a mean greater than Group A.
D. Group B is positively skewed and has a mean less than Group A.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Group B is negatively skewed, indicating more high scores, leading to a higher mean for Group B when compared to Group A. Choice A is incorrect because Group A is not negatively skewed and doesn't have a mean less than Group B. Choice B is incorrect as Group A is not positively skewed and its mean is not greater than Group B. Choice D is also incorrect because Group B having a mean less than Group A contradicts the fact that Group B has a higher mean due to being negatively skewed.

5. What is 4 + 5 + 12 + 9?

A. 20
B. 30
C. 40
D. 50

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 30. To find the sum, you need to add 4 + 5 + 12 + 9, which equals 30. Choice A (20) is incorrect because it does not account for the correct addition of the numbers provided. Choice C (40) is incorrect as it represents the sum of the numbers incorrectly. Choice D (50) is also incorrect as it is not the sum of the given numbers.
