Question 1 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 2 of 5
A large pizza has a diameter of 9 inches. Which of the following is the area of the pizza in terms of pi?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the area of a circle, we use the formula A = πr², where r is the radius of the circle. In this case, the diameter is 9 inches, so the radius is half of the diameter, which is 4.5 inches. Substituting the radius into the formula, we get A = π(4.5)² = 20.25 πin². Therefore, the correct answer is 20.25 πin². Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the area using the radius of the circle.
Question 3 of 5
A sweater that normally sells for $78 is marked 15% off. Which of the following estimates the sale price of the sweater?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the sale price after a 15% discount, you calculate 15% of $78, which is $11.70. Subtracting $11.70 from the original price gives $66.30. Since the price is typically rounded, the estimated sale price is $66. Choice A, $12, is too low and does not reflect a 15% discount off $78. Choice C, $22, and choice D, $69, are also incorrect as they do not accurately estimate the sale price after a 15% discount.
Question 4 of 5
If a box of 55 syringes costs $660.00, what is the cost of four syringes?

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 5 of 5
What is the equivalent weight in pounds for 45 kg? (1 kg = 2.2 lbs)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert kilograms to pounds, multiply the weight in kilograms by the conversion factor 2.2 (1 kg = 2.2 lbs). Therefore, 45 kg * 2.2 lbs/kg = 99 lbs. Choice A is incorrect because it is a miscalculation. Choice B is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice D is incorrect as it is also a miscalculation of the conversion.
