Math HESI A2 Practice Test - Nurselytic

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
To calculate the distance traveled by the train, multiply the speed (65 mph) by the time it took to reach the destination, which is 1.5 hours (3:15 PM - 1:45 PM = 1.5 hours).
Therefore, 65 mph 1.5 hours = 97.5 miles. This calculation is correct because distance = speed time.

Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
To produce 24 eggs in 24 hours, 4 times the number of chickens needed to produce 6 eggs is required. Since it takes 2 chickens to produce 6 eggs, 8 chickens are needed to produce 24 eggs in the same time frame.
Choice B, 12 chickens, is incorrect because it doesn't consider the proportionality between chickens and eggs.
Choice C, 18 chickens, is incorrect as it overestimates the number of chickens needed.
Choice D, 6 chickens, is incorrect as it doesn't account for the increased number of eggs required.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C (16.60%). When rolling a standard 6-sided die, the probability of getting a 5 is 1/6 or approximately 16.6%.
Choice A (50%) is incorrect as it represents the probability of getting a specific number on a coin flip, not a die roll.
Choice B (20%) is incorrect as it does not reflect the probability of rolling a 5 on a standard die.
Choice D (83.30%) is incorrect as it is the complement of the probability of rolling a 5, which is not asked in the question.
