Question 1 of 5

If x represents the width of a rectangle and the length is six less than two times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the expression representing the length of the rectangle in terms of x, we need to consider that the length is six less than two times the width. If we denote the width as x, the length can be expressed as 2x - 6. Therefore, the correct expression is 2x-6 (choice A). Choice B, 6-2x, represents the width subtracted from 6, not the length. Choice C, 6x-2, is not derived from the given information about the relationship between the width and length. Choice D, 3x-4, is not consistent with the relationship provided in the question.

Question 2 of 5

A recipe calls for 5.5 teaspoons of vanilla. 1 teaspoon equals approximately 4.93 mL. Which of the following is the correct amount of vanilla in mL?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert the amount of vanilla from teaspoons to milliliters, we multiply the number of teaspoons by the conversion factor of 4.93 mL/teaspoon. 5.5 teaspoons * 4.93 mL/teaspoon = 27.115 mL, which rounds to 27 mL. Therefore, the correct amount of vanilla in mL is 27 mL. Choice A (10.2 mL), Choice B (12 mL), and Choice C (7.43 mL) are incorrect as they do not correctly convert the given amount of teaspoons to milliliters based on the provided conversion factor.

Question 3 of 5

One gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. If the maintenance department needs 230 gallons of solution to clean all of the floors, how much ammonia is needed?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find out how much ammonia is needed for 230 gallons of cleaning solution, you multiply the amount of ammonia needed per gallon by the total gallons of solution required. Therefore, 230 gallons * 6 oz/gallon = 1380 oz of ammonia. Option A ('1380 gallons') and Option B ('6900 gallons') are incorrect as the question asks for the amount of ammonia needed, not the total volume of cleaning solution. Option D ('1400 oz') is incorrect as it does not correctly calculate the amount of ammonia required based on the given information.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following values is the greatest?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the greatest value among the given options, convert the fractions to decimal form. 2/11 is approximately 0.1818, 5.4 is a decimal itself, 13/3 is approximately 4.333, and 6.25 is a decimal. Comparing these values, 6.25 is the largest among them. Therefore, option D, 6.25, is the correct answer. Choices A, B, and C are smaller values compared to 6.25, making them incorrect answers.

Question 5 of 5

Simplify the expression below. Which of the following is correct? 3.45 * 0.53

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To solve 3.45 * 0.53, multiply the numbers to get 1.8285. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice C is incorrect as it is a fraction of the correct answer. Choice D is incorrect as it results from an error in moving the decimal point.
