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.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the percentage of churchgoers who attend Catholic Churches, divide the number of Catholic churchgoers by the total number of churchgoers and then multiply by 100. (400 · 1,450) 100 ≈ 27.59%, which rounds to 28%.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To solve the equation 2y + 5 = 25 * 10, start by simplifying the right side: 25 * 10 = 250. Then, subtract 5 from both sides to isolate 2y: 2y = 250 - 5 = 245. Finally, divide by 2 to find the value of y: y = 245 / 2 = 122.5. Therefore, the correct answer is y = 122.5. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not result from the correct calculation steps.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: First, convert the mixed number 1 (1/8) into an improper fraction: 1 (1/8) = 9/8. Now, simplify the expression: (1/4) (3/5) · (9/8). To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal: (1/4) (3/5) (8/9) = 24/180 = 2/15. Thus, the simplified expression is 2/15. Choice A (8/15) is incorrect because the correct answer is 2/15. Choice B (27/160) is incorrect as it is not the result of the given expression. Choice D (27/40) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified expression obtained.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To simplify the given expression, start by performing the division first: (2/3) · (4/15) = (2/3) (15/4) = 30/12 = 5/2. Next, multiply this result by 5/8: 5/2 5/8 = 25/16 = 1 9/16. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1 1/4) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified result. Choice C (2 1/8) is incorrect as it does not represent the simplified expression. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions in the original expression.
