Jackson is in a race with three other people. What is the probability that Jackson will finish first?
-
75%
-
50%
-
100%
-
25%
Correct Answer
A. 25%Explanation
Given that Jackson is in a race with three other people, the probability of Jackson finishing first depends on the assumption that each racer has an equal chance of winning. In this context, with four racers in total, the probability of Jackson finishing first is calculated as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes (Jackson finishing first) to the total number of possible outcomes (four racers).
Since there is only one favorable outcome (Jackson finishing first) and four racers in total, the probability is 1/4, which translates to approximately 25%. This assumes an equal chance for each racer to win the race.Rate this question:

Ann is creating a three-digit combination for a lock. She may only use the numbers 2. 6, and 9. Each digit may be repeated or not used at all. How many different combinations could she make for her lock?
-
12
-
17
-
27
-
9
Correct Answer
A. 27Explanation
Ann has three choices for each digit in the combination: 2, 6, or 9. Since she can repeat digits and can choose not to use any of them, there are 3 options for each digit. Therefore, the total number of combinations she can make is 3 x 3 x 3 = 27.Rate this question:

How many ways can you make $.65 using at least one quarter and no pennies or half dollars?

-
7
-

-
70
Correct Answer
A. 7Explanation
To make $.65 using at least one quarter and no pennies or half dollars, we can consider the different combinations of coins. We can use one quarter (25 cents) and then use nickels (5 cents) to make up the remaining 40 cents. So, we can have 1 quarter and 8 nickels, 1 quarter and 6 nickels, 1 quarter and 4 nickels, and so on until 1 quarter and 0 nickels. This gives us a total of 7 different ways to make $.65 using at least one quarter and no pennies or half dollars.Rate this question:

Which of the following might be reasonable dimensions of a bathroom?
-
40 in x 30 in
-
2 miles x 3 miles
-
9 feet x 12 feet
Correct Answer
A. 9 feet x 12 feetExplanation
The dimensions of a bathroom are typically measured in feet or inches, not in miles. Therefore, the option of 2 miles x 3 miles is not a reasonable dimension for a bathroom. However, the option of 9 feet x 12 feet is a reasonable dimension for a bathroom as it falls within the typical range of bathroom sizes. The dimensions of 40 in x 30 in could also be reasonable for a smaller bathroom, as it is within the range of standard bathroom sizes.Rate this question:

-
36
Correct Answer
A. 12Explanation
Each player has 3 choices for picking a door and 4 choices for picking a curtain behind the door. Therefore, the total number of choices for each player is the product of the number of choices for picking a door and the number of choices for picking a curtain, which is 3 * 4 = 12.Rate this question:

The 4 aces are removed from a deck of cards. A coin is tossed and one of the aces is chosen. What is the probability of getting heads on the coin and the ace of hearts?
-
1/2
-
1/4
-
1/8
-
1/16
Correct Answer
A. 1/8Explanation
The probability of getting heads on a coin toss is 1/2. Since there are 4 aces in the deck and one of them is chosen, the probability of choosing the ace of hearts is 1/4. To find the probability of both events happening together, we multiply the probabilities: (1/2) * (1/4) = 1/8. Therefore, the probability of getting heads on the coin and the ace of hearts is 1/8.Rate this question:

Rule = x3 -5What is the input if the output is 10?
-
5
-
10
-
15
-
20
Correct Answer
A. 5Explanation
The rule given is x3 - 5. To find the input if the output is 10, we need to solve the equation 10 = x3 - 5. By adding 5 to both sides of the equation, we get 15 = x3. Taking the cube root of both sides, we find that x is equal to 5. Therefore, the input for an output of 10 is 5.Rate this question:

There are 2 groups of judges. There are 4 judges in each group. Each morning, each judge shakes hands with all the other judges. How many unique handshakes are made if all 8 judges are present to shake hands.**Remember that Judge Gizem with Judge Danielle is the same as Judge Danielle with Judge Gizem.
-
6
-
56
-
28
-
8
Correct Answer
A. 28Explanation
In a group of 4 judges, each judge shakes hands with the other 3 judges. So, in the first group of judges, there are 4*(4-1)/2 = 6 unique handshakes. Similarly, in the second group of judges, there are also 6 unique handshakes. However, there may also be handshakes between judges from different groups. Since there are 4 judges in each group, there can be 4*4 = 16 unique handshakes between judges from different groups. Therefore, the total number of unique handshakes is 6 + 6 + 16 = 28.Rate this question:

There are 5 members in Kuran's camera club. How many ways are there to pick a President, Vice President, and Secretary from the five members?
-
5x5x5x5x5
-
5x4x3
-
5x3
-
5+3
Correct Answer
A. 5x4x3Explanation
The question asks for the number of ways to pick a President, Vice President, and Secretary from the five members. To find the number of ways, we multiply the number of choices for each position. Since there are 5 members to choose from for the President position, 4 members left to choose from for the Vice President position, and 3 members left to choose from for the Secretary position, we multiply 5x4x3 to get the total number of ways, which is 60.Rate this question:
