Question 1 of 5
Which of the following best describes the relationship in this set of data?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Low positive correlation.' In a low positive correlation, the variables tend to increase together, but the relationship is not strong. This description fits the data set provided. Choice A, 'High positive correlation,' is incorrect because the correlation is not strong. Choice C, 'Low negative correlation,' is incorrect as the variables are not decreasing together. Choice D, 'No correlation,' is incorrect because there is a relationship between the variables, albeit weak.
Question 2 of 5
What percentage of the total rainfall in this timeframe occurs during October?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate the percentage of rainfall that occurs during October, divide October's rainfall (4.5 inches) by the total rainfall (29.38 inches) and multiply by 100. So, (4.5 / 29.38) * 100 = 15.31%. Among the choices given, option B, 0.151, is the closest to this calculated percentage. Options A, C, and D are not correct as they do not match the accurate calculation based on the provided data.
Question 3 of 5
Gordon purchased a television that was 30% off its original price of $472. What was the sale price?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the sale price after a 30% discount, you first calculate the discount amount which is 30% of $472. 30% of $472 is $141.60. To find the sale price, you subtract the discount amount from the original price: $472 - $141.60 = $330.40. Therefore, the sale price of the television after a 30% discount would be $330.40. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the calculated sale price after the discount.
Question 4 of 5
Robert plans to drive 1,800 miles. His car gets 30 miles per gallon, and his tank holds 12 gallons. How many tanks of gas will he need for the trip?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate how many gallons of gas Robert needs for the 1,800-mile trip, divide the total distance by the car's mileage per gallon: 1,800 miles · 30 mpg = 60 gallons. Since his tank holds 12 gallons, Robert will need 60 gallons · 12 gallons per tank = 5 tanks of gas for the trip. Choice A (4 tanks), Choice C (6 tanks), and Choice D (7 tanks) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the number of tanks needed based on the car's mileage and tank capacity.
Question 5 of 5
Cora skated around the rink 27 times but fell 20 times. What percentage of the time did she not fall?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the percentage of the time Cora did not fall, subtract the number of times she fell (20) from the total number of times she skated around the rink (27). This gives us 27 - 20 = 7 times she did not fall. To express this as a percentage, calculate (7/27) * 100% = 25.93%, which is approximately 26%. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.26 (C). Choice A (0.37), Choice B (0.74), and Choice D (0.15) are incorrect as they do not represent the percentage of the time Cora did not fall based on the information provided.
