Five math questions with answers

Cover the key. Write the first action. Then open the rationale and name why the other choices fail.

Question 1

In a research study, a researcher collects data on the number of hours spent studying and the grades students received. Which of the following is the dependent variable?

  1. A. The number of hours spent studying
  2. B. The grades students received
  3. C. The subjects students studied
  4. D. The number of students in the study
Show answer and rationale

Correct answer: B — The grades students received

The correct answer is B: 'The grades students received.' In this scenario, the grades students received are the dependent variable because they are influenced by the number of hours spent studying. The grades are the outcome that is being measured based on the manipulation or observation of the independent variable, which in this case is the number of hours spent studying. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. The number of hours spent studying is the independent variable being manipulated or observed, the subjects students studied is not directly related to the dependent variable, and the number of students in the study is not the variable being measured or influenced by the independent variable.

Question 2

Veronica is making a holiday schedule. 35% of staff members will be on vacation, and 20% of the remainder are certified to work. What percentage of the staff is certified and available?

  1. A. 0.07
  2. B. 0.13
  3. C. 0.65
  4. D. 0.8
Show answer and rationale

Correct answer: A — 0.07

To find the percentage of staff certified and available, we first calculate the percentage of staff members not on vacation, which is 100% - 35% = 65%. Then, 20% of this group is certified to work, which is 20% of 65% = 0.20 * 65% = 13%. Therefore, Veronica has 13% of the staff certified and available to work. The correct answer is 0.13 (or 13%). Choice C (0.65) is incorrect because it represents the percentage of staff members not on vacation, not the percentage that is certified and available. Choice D (0.8) is incorrect as it is not the correct percentage of staff members certified and available. Choice B (0.13) is the correct answer, not choice A (0.07), as 0.07 represents 7%, not 13%.

Question 3

What is the least common denominator of two fractions?

  1. A. The smallest number that is a multiple of both denominators
  2. B. The smallest number that both fractions can divide into evenly
  3. C. The least common multiple of both denominators
  4. D. The greatest common factor of both denominators
Show answer and rationale

Correct answer: C — The least common multiple of both denominators

The least common denominator of two fractions is the least common multiple of both denominators. This is because the least common denominator is the smallest number that both denominators can divide into evenly, ensuring that both fractions can be expressed with a common denominator. Choice A is incorrect as the least common denominator is a multiple of both denominators, not a number that multiplies into both. Choice B is incorrect because the common denominator needs to be a multiple of both denominators, not just a number they can divide into evenly. Choice D is incorrect as the greatest common factor is not used to find the least common denominator, but rather the least common multiple.

Question 4

Veronica paid an additional $3,015 for a surround sound system and $5,218 for a maintenance package. What was the total price of her new car?

  1. A. $50,210
  2. B. $48,443
  3. C. $43,225
  4. D. $40,210
Show answer and rationale

Correct answer: B — $48,443

To calculate the total price of Veronica's new car, you must sum the original price of the car with the additional costs. Veronica paid $3,015 for the surround sound system and $5,218 for the maintenance package, totaling $3,015 + $5,218 = $8,233 in additional costs. Adding this to the original price of the car, $40,210, gives $40,210 + $8,233 = $48,443. Therefore, the total price of Veronica's new car is $48,443. Choice A, $50,210, is incorrect as it does not factor in the correct additional costs. Choice C, $43,225, is incorrect because it does not include the additional costs. Choice D, $40,210, is incorrect as it only represents the original price of the car without the added expenses.

Question 5

Futuristic Furniture gave the man two choices: pay the entire amount in one payment with cash, or pay $1000 as a down payment and $120 per month for two full years in the financing plan. If the man chooses the financing plan, how much more would he pay?

  1. A. $1480 more
  2. B. $1280 more
  3. C. $1600 more
  4. D. $2480 more
Show answer and rationale

Correct answer: B — $1280 more

If the man chooses the financing plan, he pays $1000 as a down payment initially. Over the two-year period, he will be paying $120 per month for a total of 24 months, which amounts to $120 x 24 = $2880. Therefore, the total amount he pays for the furniture through the financing plan is $1000 (down payment) + $2880 (monthly payments) = $3880. Comparing this total with the entire amount paid in one payment with cash would be $3880 - $3000 = $880 more. So, the man would pay $880 more if he chooses the financing plan. Therefore, the correct answer is $1280 more, not $1480, $1600, or $2480. These amounts do not accurately represent the additional cost incurred by choosing the financing plan.
