Question 1 of 5
A leather recliner is on sale for 30% less than its original price. A consumer has a coupon that saves an additional 25% off of the sale price. If the consumer pays $237 for the recliner, what is the original price of the recliner to the nearest dollar?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the original price of the recliner, you need to reverse calculate. Let x be the original price. The sale price is 70% of the original price, and after the additional 25% coupon discount, the consumer pays $237. Setting up the equation: x 0.70 0.75 = 237. Solving this equation, x ≈ $527. Therefore, the original price of the recliner was approximately $527. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not align with the correct calculation based on the given discounts.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following percentages is equivalent to the fraction 3/4?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert a fraction to a percentage, you multiply the fraction by 100. In this case, 3/4 * 100% = 75%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (57%) is incorrect as it does not represent the fraction 3/4. Choice B (7.50%) is incorrect as it is not the equivalent percentage of 3/4. Choice C (65%) is incorrect as it does not match the percentage value of 3/4.
Question 3 of 5
The length of a rectangle is 3 units greater than its width. Which expression correctly represents the perimeter of the rectangle?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all its sides. In this case, the length is 3 units greater than the width, so the length can be expressed as W + 3. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2W + 2(L), where L represents the length. Substituting W + 3 for L, the correct expression for the perimeter becomes 2W + 2(W + 3), which simplifies to 2W + 2W + 6 or 4W + 6. Choices B, C, and D do not correctly represent the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle. Choice B simply adds the width twice to 3, neglecting the length. Choice C multiplies the width by the sum of the width and 3, which is incorrect. Choice D combines the width and 3 times the width, which is not the correct formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.
Question 4 of 5
When the weights of the newborn babies are graphed, the distribution of weights is symmetric with the majority of weights centered around a single peak. Which of the following describes the shape of this distribution?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Bell-shaped. A symmetric distribution with a single peak is characteristic of a bell-shaped distribution, also known as a normal distribution. This distribution forms a symmetrical, bell-like curve when graphed. Choice A, 'Uniform,' would describe a distribution where all values have equal probability. Choice B, 'Bimodal,' would indicate a distribution with two distinct peaks. Choice D, 'Skewed right,' suggests a distribution where the tail on the right side is longer or more pronounced, unlike the symmetrical bell-shaped distribution described in the question.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following best describes the data set below? 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Bimodal. A bimodal distribution has two distinct peaks or modes. In this data set, the numbers 2 and 8 appear more frequently than other numbers, creating two modes (2 and 8). Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Option A, 'Uniform,' describes a distribution where all values have equal frequency, which is not the case in this data set. Options B and D, 'Right-skewed' and 'Left-skewed,' refer to distributions where the data is skewed towards one side, which is not observed in this dataset. Therefore, the data set is best described as bimodal.
