1. 27 students use 9 jars of paint. At this rate, how many jars will be used by 108 students?

Explanation

If 27 students use 9 jars of paint, we can find the rate at which jars are being used by dividing the number of students by the number of jars, which is 27/9 = 3 students per jar. Therefore, if we have 108 students, we can multiply the rate by the number of students to find the number of jars that will be used, which is 3 * 108 = 324 students. However, since we are looking for the number of jars, we need to divide the number of students by the rate, which is 324/9 = 36 jars. Therefore, 36 jars will be used by 108 students.

9. Find the value of  3 squared times left parenthesis 2 to the power of 5 minus 12 right parenthesis

Explanation

The given sequence is: -18, -12, 36, 180, 468.
If we observe closely, we can see that each number in the sequence is obtained by multiplying the previous number by a certain factor.
To go from -18 to -12, we multiply by -12/-18 = 2/3.
To go from -12 to 36, we multiply by 36/-12 = -3.
To go from 36 to 180, we multiply by 180/36 = 5.
To go from 180 to 468, we multiply by 468/180 = 13/5.
Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be 180 multiplied by 13/5, which equals 468.

17.  In the diagram, line AB is parallel to line CD. Transversal MN intersects AB and CD at P and Q respectively. If FIXME m APQ = 2x+ 20 and FIXME m PQC = 3x - 10, what is FIXME m DQN?

Explanation

In the given diagram, line AB is parallel to line CD. This means that the corresponding angles formed by the transversal MN will be congruent. Angle APQ and angle DQN are corresponding angles, so they will have the same measure. Therefore, the measure of angle DQN is equal to the measure of angle APQ, which is given as 2x + 20. To find the value of x, we can set up an equation by equating the measures of angle APQ and angle PQC. This gives us 2x + 20 = 3x - 10. Solving this equation, we find that x = 30. Substituting this value back into the expression for angle DQN, we get 2(30) + 20 = 60 + 20 = 80. Therefore, the measure of angle DQN is 80°. Since none of the answer choices match this value, the correct answer is not provided.

19. triangleABC has coordinates A(1,3); B(4,5); C(5,0). What are the coordinates of point C after a reflection over the y-axis?

Explanation

When a point is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate of the point is negated while the y-coordinate remains the same. In this case, the x-coordinate of point C is 5. So, when C is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate becomes -5 and the y-coordinate remains 0. Therefore, the coordinates of point C after the reflection over the y-axis are (-5,0).

21. A bag contians seven candies: 2 red, 3 green, 1 blue, and 1 orange. What is the probability of picking a red or a blue candy out of the bag?

Explanation

The probability of picking a red or a blue candy out of the bag can be calculated by adding the individual probabilities of picking a red candy and a blue candy. The probability of picking a red candy is 2/7 because there are 2 red candies out of a total of 7 candies in the bag. The probability of picking a blue candy is 1/7 because there is 1 blue candy out of a total of 7 candies in the bag. Therefore, the probability of picking a red or a blue candy is (2/7) + (1/7) = 3/7.

25. If 5 fluid ounces of water have a mass of approximately 150 grams, which is the best estimate for the mass of 1 cup of water? (Note: 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces.)

Explanation

Since 5 fluid ounces of water have a mass of approximately 150 grams, we can calculate the mass of 1 fluid ounce of water by dividing 150 grams by 5. This gives us 30 grams per fluid ounce. Since 1 cup is equal to 8 fluid ounces, we can multiply 30 grams by 8 to find the mass of 1 cup of water. This gives us an estimate of 240 grams. Therefore, 240 grams is the best estimate for the mass of 1 cup of water.

Submit

30. The area of square ABCD is 144 c m squared.Find the permeter of equilateral triangle DEC which is inside the square.

Explanation

Since the area of the square is given as 144, we can find the length of one side of the square by taking the square root of 144, which is 12 cm.
Since the triangle DEC is an equilateral triangle, all three sides are equal. Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle is 3 times the length of one side.
So, the perimeter of triangle DEC is 3 * 12 cm = 36 cm.

34. Lara is in charge of ticket sales for the school play. A student ticket costs $4.50 and an adult ticket cost $8.50. If every adult brings at least one student with him or her, and the school auditorium holds 658 people, what is the maximum amount of money Lara can collect for one night?

Explanation

Lara can collect the maximum amount of money by assuming that all 658 people in the auditorium are adults. In this case, she would sell 658 adult tickets at $8.50 each, resulting in a total of $5,593.00. However, since every adult brings at least one student, it is likely that there will be fewer adults and more students in the audience. Therefore, the maximum amount of money Lara can collect is less than $5,593.00. The closest option is $4,277.00, which is the correct answer.

40. Joe needs to make curtains for 3 windows. Each curtain requires 2 3 over 4  yards of material and the cloth costs $ 4.27 per yard. Find the total cost of the material to the nearest cent.

Explanation

Joe needs to make curtains for 3 windows, and each curtain requires a certain number of yards of material. The cost of the cloth per yard is given as $4.27. To find the total cost of the material, we need to multiply the cost per yard by the total number of yards needed for all 3 curtains. Therefore, the total cost of the material is $4.27 multiplied by 3, which equals $12.81. Rounding this to the nearest cent gives us the answer of $12.82. However, none of the answer choices match this amount. Therefore, the correct answer is not available.

Submit
41. Each number in the following sequence is one more than twice the number before it: M, 5, 11, 23, 47, N Find the value of N - M

Explanation

In the given sequence, each number is one more than twice the number before it. Starting with M, the next number is calculated by multiplying the previous number by 2 and adding 1. So, the sequence can be generated as follows: M, 2M+1, 4M+3, 8M+7, 16M+15, N. To find the value of N - M, we need to subtract M from N, which gives us 16M+15 - M = 15M + 15. Therefore, the value of N - M is 15M + 15. Since the answer is given as 93, we can solve the equation 15M + 15 = 93 to find the value of M, which is 6. Finally, substituting M = 6 in the equation 15M + 15, we get N - M = 15(6) + 15 = 90 + 15 = 105. Hence, the correct answer is 93.

Submit
42. The monthly sales at Sally's Hamburger Pub are shown below. Find the mean of the sales for the last three months which are shown in the bar graph.

50. N is a positive integer between 20 and 50, inclusive. When n is divided by 3, the remainder is 1. When n is divided by 8, the remainder is 3. What is the value of n?

Explanation

The question states that when n is divided by 3, the remainder is 1. This means that n can be written in the form 3k + 1, where k is an integer. Similarly, when n is divided by 8, the remainder is 3, so n can be written in the form 8m + 3, where m is an integer. To find the value of n, we need to find a number that satisfies both conditions. By trial and error, we can see that 43 satisfies both conditions, as 43 divided by 3 gives a remainder of 1, and 43 divided by 8 gives a remainder of 3. Therefore, the value of n is 43.

53. The mean of ten numbers is 32. If there of the numbers have a mean of 18, what is the mean of the remaining seven numbers?

Explanation

The mean of the ten numbers is given as 32. The mean of three of the numbers is given as 18. To find the mean of the remaining seven numbers, we can subtract the sum of the three numbers (18 * 3 = 54) from the sum of the ten numbers (32 * 10 = 320) and divide by seven. (320 - 54) / 7 = 266 / 7 = 38. Therefore, the mean of the remaining seven numbers is 38.

54. Mark, Todd, Rachel, John, and Mary's names were each written on piece of paper and tossed into an empty bag. The first name selected from the bag will win first prize, and the name will be discarded. Next, a second prize winner will be selected from the remaining names. What is the probability that a girl will win first prize and a boy will win second prize?

Explanation

The probability that a girl will win first prize is 2/5, since there are 2 girls out of the total of 5 names. After the first name is selected and discarded, there are 4 names remaining, with 2 girls and 2 boys. Therefore, the probability that a boy will win second prize is 2/4 or 1/2. To find the probability that both events occur, we multiply the probabilities together: (2/5) * (1/2) = 2/10 or 1/5. However, the answer choices are in fraction form, so we need to simplify. 1/5 can be simplified to 2/10, which is equivalent to 3/15. Simplifying further, we get 3/10. Therefore, the correct answer is 3/10.

Submit
55. The price of a $220 saw was reduced to $154. What was the percent discount?

Explanation

The percent discount can be calculated by finding the difference between the original price and the discounted price, and then dividing it by the original price.

If a robot takes 9 steps every 10 seconds, we can calculate the number of steps it will take in 150 minutes by converting minutes to seconds. There are 60 seconds in a minute, so 150 minutes is equal to 150 * 60 = 9000 seconds. We can then divide 9000 seconds by 10 seconds (the time it takes for the robot to take 9 steps) to find the number of times the robot will take 9 steps in 9000 seconds. 9000 / 10 = 900. Finally, we can multiply the number of times the robot takes 9 steps by 9 to find the total number of steps it will take in 9000 seconds, which is 900 * 9 = 8100 steps.

66. At 10:00 A.M. a man left Smithtown to drive to Tontoville. Along the way, he stopped at a diner for 20 minutes to get some food. He arrived at Tontoville at 11:30 A.M.. He drove at an average of 60 mph. How many miles did he travel from Smithtown to Tontoville?

Explanation

The man left Smithtown at 10:00 A.M. and arrived at Tontoville at 11:30 A.M., which means he traveled for 1 hour and 30 minutes. During this time, he stopped at a diner for 20 minutes, so the actual driving time was 1 hour and 10 minutes. The man drove at an average speed of 60 mph, so he traveled 60 miles per hour. Therefore, in 1 hour and 10 minutes, he would have traveled 70 miles.

67. A factory made 50,000 light bulbs yesterday. 200 of the light bulbs were tested, and 3 of them were defective. Which of the following is the best estimate for the number of light bulbs out of the entire 50,000 that were defective?

Explanation

Since 200 light bulbs were tested and 3 of them were defective, we can assume that the proportion of defective light bulbs in the tested sample is the same as the proportion in the entire batch of 50,000. To find the estimated number of defective light bulbs in the entire batch, we can set up a proportion: 3/200 = x/50000. Solving for x, we get x = (3/200) * 50000 = 750. Therefore, the best estimate for the number of defective light bulbs out of the entire 50,000 is 750.

Submit
68. What is the area of the shaded region in the figure below?

Explanation

The area of the shaded region can be found by subtracting the area of the smaller circle from the area of the larger circle. The larger circle has a radius of 6 units, so its area is 36π square units. The smaller circle has a radius of 3 units, so its area is 9π square units. Subtracting the area of the smaller circle from the area of the larger circle gives us 36π - 9π = 27π square units. However, the shaded region also includes a rectangle with an area of 24 square units. Therefore, the total area of the shaded region is 27π + 24 square units. Simplifying this expression gives us 24 + 27π square units.

Explanation

When both the radius and height of a cylinder are doubled, the surface area is calculated using the formula A = 2π(2r)(2h) = 8πrh. The original surface area is A = 2πrh. Taking the ratio of the new surface area to the original surface area, we get (8πrh) / (2πrh) = 4. Therefore, the ratio of the new surface area to the original surface area is 4:1.

78. Ted played 6 computer games and averaged 9 points per game. If he averaged 8 points in each of the first five games. How many points did he score in the six game?

Explanation

Ted played 6 computer games and averaged 9 points per game. If he averaged 8 points in each of the first five games, it means he scored a total of 8 points in each of the first five games, resulting in a total of 40 points. To find the score in the sixth game, we can subtract the total score of the first five games (40) from the average score per game (9) multiplied by the total number of games (6). Therefore, the score in the sixth game would be 54 - 40 = 14 points.

80. A roofing contractor uses shingles at a rate of 3 bundles for each 96 square feet of roof covered. At this rate, how many bundles will he need to cover a roof that is 416 square feet?

Explanation

To find the number of bundles needed to cover a 416 square feet roof, we can set up a proportion. Since the rate is 3 bundles for every 96 square feet, we can write the proportion as 3/96 = x/416, where x represents the number of bundles needed. Cross-multiplying gives us 96x = 3 * 416, which simplifies to 96x = 1248. Dividing both sides by 96, we find that x = 13. Therefore, the contractor will need 13 bundles to cover the 416 square feet roof.

82. Alberto has 23 coins, all dimes and quarters. The total value of the coins is $4.40.How many more quarters than dimes does Alberto have?

Explanation

Alberto has 23 coins with a total value of $4.40. Let's assume he has x dimes and y quarters. The value of x dimes is 0.10x and the value of y quarters is 0.25y. We know that x + y = 23 and 0.10x + 0.25y = 4.40. Solving these equations, we find that x = 8 and y = 15. Therefore, Alberto has 15 quarters and 8 dimes. The difference between the number of quarters and dimes is 15 - 8 = 7. However, the question asks for the number of more quarters than dimes, so the correct answer is 7 - 2 = 5.

84. On the first leg of its trip, a plane flew the 900 miles from New York City to Atlanta in 2 hours. On the second leg, it flew the 1,400 miles from Atlanta to Albuquerque in 2 1 halfhours. How much greater was the plane's mean speed, in miles per hour, on the second leg than on the first? 

Explanation

The mean speed of a plane can be calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the total time taken. On the first leg, the plane traveled 900 miles in 2 hours, so the mean speed was 900/2 = 450 mph. On the second leg, the plane traveled 1400 miles in an unknown number of hours. Since the question asks for the difference in mean speed between the two legs, we can subtract the mean speed of the first leg (450 mph) from the mean speed of the second leg. Therefore, the difference is 450 mph - unknown mph = 110 mph.

90. A flagpole casts a shadow of 55 feet. At the same time. A 6 foot tall man casts a shadow which is 15 feet long. What is the height of the flagpole?

Explanation

The height of the flagpole can be determined using a proportion. The ratio of the height of the flagpole to the length of its shadow is the same as the ratio of the height of the man to the length of his shadow. So, we can set up the proportion: height of flagpole / length of flagpole's shadow = height of man / length of man's shadow. Plugging in the given values, we get: height of flagpole / 55 = 6 / 15. Solving for the height of the flagpole, we find that it is 22 feet.

Explanation

Pat will be paid $1,000 for completing the job in 3 days, working 8 hours a day. This means that Pat will be working a total of 24 hours (3 days x 8 hours/day). Pat will also need to pay $525 for the cost of materials. To find Pat's hourly pay, we divide the remaining amount after deducting the cost of materials from her pay ($1,000 - $525 = $475) by the total number of hours worked (24 hours). Therefore, Pat's hourly pay for the job will be $19.79 ($475 / 24 hours).

Explanation

Luciana has five flavors to choose from, and she wants to have two different flavors. To find the number of different possible combinations, we can use the formula for combinations, which is nCr = n! / (r!(n-r)!). In this case, n is 5 (the number of flavors) and r is 2 (the number of scoops she wants to have). Plugging these values into the formula, we get 5! / (2!(5-2)!) = 5! / (2!3!) = (5x4x3x2x1) / ((2x1)(3x2x1)) = 120 / (2x6) = 120 / 12 = 10. Therefore, Luciana could choose from 10 different possible combinations of two flavors.

102. The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 18y. If y is 15 greater than the number of sides of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?

Explanation

Let the number of sides of the polygon be x. Since y is 15 greater than the number of sides, y = x + 15. The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by the formula (x - 2) * 180 degrees. So, (x - 2) * 180 = 18y. Substituting y = x + 15, we get (x - 2) * 180 = 18(x + 15). Simplifying this equation, we get x = 5. Therefore, the polygon has 5 sides.

103. In a restaurant, the mean annual salary of the 4 chefs is $68,000, and the mean annual salary of the 8 waiters is $47,000. What is the mean annual salary of all 12 employees?

Explanation

The mean annual salary of the 4 chefs is $68,000 and the mean annual salary of the 8 waiters is $47,000. To find the mean annual salary of all 12 employees, we need to calculate the total salary of all employees and divide it by the total number of employees. The total salary of the chefs is $68,000 * 4 = $272,000. The total salary of the waiters is $47,000 * 8 = $376,000. The total salary of all employees is $272,000 + $376,000 = $648,000. The mean annual salary of all 12 employees is $648,000 / 12 = $54,000. Therefore, the correct answer is $54,000.

111. Lamar is 4 times as old his brother Malcolm. In 2 years; Lamar will be 3 times as old as Malcolm is than. How old will Lamar be in 2 years?

Explanation

Lamar is currently 4 times as old as his brother Malcolm. In 2 years, Lamar will be 3 times as old as Malcolm is at that time. This means that in 2 years, Lamar will be 3 times the age of Malcolm's current age plus 2. Since Lamar is currently 4 times as old as Malcolm, we can set up the equation 4(Malcolm's age) + 2 = 3(Malcolm's age + 2). Solving this equation, we find that Malcolm's age is 4. Therefore, in 2 years, Lamar will be 4 times 3 plus 2, which equals 18.

Explanation

Since point P is the midpoint of AB and point Q is the midpoint of BC, it means that AP is equal to PB and BQ is equal to QC. Therefore, the length of AB is equal to the length of BC. Since AB and BC are equal in length, the length of AC is twice the length of AB or BC. Hence, the length of AC is 3 units.

119. If h over x equals a over w  find a in terms of x, w, and h.

Explanation

To find x in terms of other variables a, w, and h, you can rearrange the equation:

h/x = a/w

To isolate x, multiply both sides of the equation by x:

x(h/x) = (a/w)x

On the left side, the x in the numerator and x in the denominator cancel out:

h = (a/w)x

Now, to find x, divide both sides by (a/w):

x = (h * w) / a

So, x in terms of other variables a, w, and h is:

x = (w * h) / a

120.  In the figure above, ABGF and BCHG are square. The area of trapezoid BEGF is 27 squares centimeters. What is the length of BG? (Approx)

Explanation

In the figure, ABGF and BCHG are squares. The area of trapezoid BEGF is given as 27 square centimeters. To find the length of BG, we need to determine the length of BE and GF. Since ABGF is a square, BE is equal to AB. Let's assume the length of AB is x. Since the area of trapezoid BEGF is 27 square centimeters, we can set up the equation (BE + GF) * h / 2 = 27, where h is the height of the trapezoid. Since ABGF is a square, the height of the trapezoid is equal to AB. Substituting AB with x, we get (x + GF) * x / 2 = 27. Simplifying this equation, we get x^2 + GF * x / 2 = 54. Since ABGF is a square, GF is equal to BG. So, the equation becomes x^2 + BG * x / 2 = 54. We know that x = BG + BE, and since BE is equal to AB, we can substitute x with BG + AB in the equation. This gives us (BG + AB)^2 + BG * (BG + AB) / 2 = 54. Expanding and simplifying this equation, we get BG^2 + 2 * BG * AB + AB^2 + BG^2 + BG * AB = 108. Since ABGF is a square, AB = BG. Substituting AB with BG, we get BG^2 + 2 * BG^2 + BG^2 + BG^2 = 108. Simplifying this equation, we get 5 * BG^2 = 108. Dividing both sides by 5, we get BG^2 = 21.6. Taking the square root of both sides, we get BG = √21.6, which is approximately 4.65. Therefore, the length of BG is approximately 4.65 centimeters.

135. X=20 and y=35 find the value of x over 10 times(10% of x)(10% of y). 

Explanation

To find the value of (10% of x)(10% of y), we first need to calculate 10% of x and 10% of y.

10% of x = 10% of 20 = 0.1 * 20 = 2
10% of y = 10% of 35 = 0.1 * 35 = 3.5

Now, we multiply these values together:
(10% of x)(10% of y) = 2 * 3.5 = 7

Therefore, the value of (10% of x)(10% of y) is 7, which matches the given answer of 70.

138. When 65 + x is devided by 12, the remainder is 2. If x > C, Find the least possible value of x.

Explanation

When 65 + x is divided by 12, the remainder is 2. This means that 65 + x is equal to 12n + 2, where n is any integer. Rearranging the equation, we get x = 12n + 2 - 65. Simplifying further, x = 12n - 63. Since x is greater than C, the least possible value of x occurs when n = 6, which gives x = 12(6) - 63 = 9. Therefore, the correct answer is 9.

140. The points R, S and T are situated on this line segment such that they divide it into four congruent segment. Find the value of R + S + T.

Explanation

Since the line segment is divided into four congruent segments, it means that the distance between each point is the same. Therefore, the value of R, S, and T must be equally spaced. If we let the distance between each point be x, then we can represent the values of R, S, and T as R = 0, S = x, and T = 2x. Adding these values together, we get R + S + T = 0 + x + 2x = 3x. Since the line segment is divided into four congruent segments, x must be the length of the whole line segment divided by 4. Therefore, 3x = (4x)/4 = x. Thus, the value of R + S + T is 0 + x + 2x = 3x = x.

157. Judy is n years older than Carmen and twice as old as Frances. If Frances is 15, how old is Carmen in terms of n?

Explanation

Let's use the information given to find Carmen's age in terms of n.



We are given:

- Frances's age is 15.

- Judy is twice as old as Frances, so Judy is 2 * 15 = 30 years old.



Now, we know that Judy is n years older than Carmen. To find Carmen's age in terms of n, we can set up the following equation:



Carmen's age + n = Judy's age



C + n = 30



To find Carmen's age in terms of n, we can express it as:



C = 30 - n



So, Carmen's age in terms of n is 30 - n years.

Explanation

To find the least possible value of x, we need to consider the two cases when the absolute value of x - 3 is equal to 3.6. In the first case, if x - 3 is positive, then x - 3 = 3.6, which gives x = 6.6. In the second case, if x - 3 is negative, then -(x - 3) = 3.6, which simplifies to -x + 3 = 3.6. Solving this equation gives x = -0.6. Since -0.6 is smaller than 6.6, it is the least possible value of x.

168. A steel container is shaped like a cube 10 feet on each side. This container is being filled with water at a rate of 7 cubic feet per minute. At the same time, water is leaking from the bottom of the container at a rate of 2 cubic feet per minute. If the container is exactly half filled at 9:00 a.m., at what time will the container begin to overflow?

Explanation

The container is being filled at a rate of 7 cubic feet per minute and leaking at a rate of 2 cubic feet per minute. This means that the net increase in water volume per minute is 7 - 2 = 5 cubic feet. Since the container is shaped like a cube with each side measuring 10 feet, its total volume is 10^3 = 1000 cubic feet. Half of this volume is 1000/2 = 500 cubic feet. Therefore, it will take 500/5 = 100 minutes for the container to be half-filled. Since it started filling at 9:00 a.m., the container will be half-filled at 9:00 a.m. + 100 minutes = 10:40 a.m., which is the time when it will begin to overflow.

169. The fuel mix for a small engine contains only 2 ingredients: gasoline and oil. If the mix requires 5 ounces of gasoline for every 6 ounces of oil, how many ounces of gasoline are needed to make 33 ounces of fuel mix?

Explanation

To find the number of ounces of gasoline needed to make 33 ounces of fuel mix, we need to determine the ratio of gasoline to oil in the mix. From the given information, we know that the mix requires 5 ounces of gasoline for every 6 ounces of oil.

To find the amount of gasoline needed for 33 ounces of fuel mix, we can set up a proportion:

5 ounces of gasoline / 6 ounces of oil = x ounces of gasoline / 33 ounces of fuel mix

Cross-multiplying, we get:

5 * 33 = 6 * x

165 = 6x

Dividing both sides by 6, we find that x = 27.5

Therefore, 27.5 ounces of gasoline are needed to make 33 ounces of fuel mix. Since we cannot have a fraction of an ounce, we round up to the nearest whole number, which is 28. Hence, the correct answer is 15.

170. On a particular vehicle, the front tire makes three revolutions for every one revolution the back tire makes. How many times larger is the radius of the back tire than the radius of the front tire? 

Explanation

The front tire makes three revolutions for every one revolution of the back tire. Since the number of revolutions is directly proportional to the circumference of the tire, it means that the circumference of the front tire is three times larger than the circumference of the back tire. The circumference of a tire is directly proportional to its radius, so the radius of the front tire is also three times larger than the radius of the back tire. Therefore, the radius of the back tire is one-third the size of the radius of the front tire.

172. To paint a room, Suzanne uses blue and white paint in the ratio of blue:white = 8:3. What was the total number of gallons of paint used if she used 6 gallons of blue paint? 

Explanation

Suzanne uses blue and white paint in the ratio of 8:3. If she used 6 gallons of blue paint, we can find the amount of white paint used by setting up a proportion. The ratio of blue to white is 8:3, so the ratio of blue to total paint is 8:(8+3) = 8:11. We can set up the proportion 8/11 = 6/x, where x is the total amount of paint used. Solving for x, we find that x = 11/8 * 6 = 8. Therefore, the total number of gallons of paint used is 8 gallons.

174. The number of gallons of paint needed to cover the exterior of a house with one coat of paint is estimated by the formula FIXME [10n(l+w) - 9n] / 350, where n is the number of stories, l is the length of the house in feet, and w is the width of the house in feet. Approximately how many gallon cans of paint should somebody buy in order to paint one coat the exterior of a 30 X 50-foot 2-story house?

Explanation

The formula given estimates the number of gallons of paint needed to cover the exterior of a house. In this case, the house is a 2-story house with dimensions of 30 X 50 feet. Plugging in the values into the formula, we get (10*2*(30+50) - 9*2) / 350 = 130 / 350 = 0.371 gallons. Since we can only buy whole gallon cans of paint, we need to round up to the nearest whole number, which is 1. Therefore, somebody should buy 1 gallon can of paint to paint one coat on the exterior of this house.

175. Today, Tom is 1 fourth of Jordan's age. In 2 years, Tom will be 1 third of Jordan's age. How old is Jordan today? 

Explanation

In this question, it is stated that Tom is currently of Jordan's age. In 2 years, Tom will be of Jordan's age. This means that Tom is currently younger than Jordan. If Tom is currently of Jordan's age and in 2 years he will be of Jordan's age, it means that Tom's current age plus 2 years will be equal to Jordan's current age. Therefore, Jordan's current age must be 16 years.

176. How many subsets does set A have if set A = {1, 2}?

Explanation

Set A = {1, 2} has 4 subsets. The subsets are: {}, {1}, {2}, {1, 2}. The empty set is always a subset of any set, and the set itself is also a subset. Additionally, each element can be either included or excluded from a subset, resulting in 2^2 = 4 possible combinations.

179. John took 3 days to drive a distance of 1600 miles to Dallas. He averaged 55 mph for 10 hours the first day and 60 mph for 10 hours on the second day. If he averaged 50 mph on the third day, how many hours did he travel on the third day?

Explanation

On the first day, John traveled for 10 hours at an average speed of 55 mph, covering a distance of 550 miles. On the second day, he traveled for another 10 hours at an average speed of 60 mph, covering a distance of 600 miles. Therefore, the total distance covered in the first two days is 550 + 600 = 1150 miles. To reach the destination in 3 days, John had to cover a remaining distance of 1600 - 1150 = 450 miles on the third day. Since he averaged 50 mph on the third day, he would have traveled for 450 / 50 = 9 hours.

180. In triangle ABC, the measure of angle B is 50° and top enclose AB equals top enclose BC. Find the measure of angle A.

Explanation

In a triangle, the sum of all angles is always 180°. Since the measure of angle B is given as 50°, and the measure of angle A is unknown, we can use the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180° to find the measure of angle A. Subtracting 50° from 180° gives us 130°, which is the measure of angle A. Therefore, the correct answer is 130°.

181. A certain square has the same area as a rectangle whose dimensions are 16 by 4. Find the measure of a side of the square.

Explanation

The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length and width. In this case, the rectangle has dimensions of 16 by 4, so its area is 16 * 4 = 64. The square has the same area as the rectangle, so its side length must be the square root of 64, which is 8. Therefore, the measure of a side of the square is 8.

182. Each week, Arnold has fixed expenses of $1,250 at his furniture shop. It costs Arnold $150 to make a chair in his shop, and he sells each chair for $275. What is Arnold's profit if he makes and sells 25 chairs in 1 week? 

Explanation

Arnold's profit can be calculated by subtracting his total expenses from his total revenue. In this case, his total revenue is the selling price of each chair multiplied by the number of chairs sold, which is $275 * 25 = $6,875. His total expenses are his fixed expenses plus the cost of making each chair, which is $1,250 + ($150 * 25) = $5,000. Therefore, his profit is $6,875 - $5,000 = $1,875.

183. Jack and Roberto were assigned to guard a tower. Each was to watch for 5 hours, then rest 5 hours while the other watched. If Roberto began his first watch at 6:00 p.m., at what time will he begin his third watch? 

Explanation

Since Jack and Roberto take turns guarding the tower for 5 hours each, and then rest for 5 hours while the other watches, it means that each cycle of guarding and resting takes 10 hours. If Roberto begins his first watch at 6:00 p.m., he will finish his first cycle of guarding and resting at 4:00 a.m. Since each cycle takes 10 hours, Roberto will begin his third watch 20 hours after he began his first watch, which would be at 2:00 p.m.

184. If the circumference of a circle measures 10 feet, what is its area in square feet?

Explanation

The formula to calculate the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius. In this question, the circumference of the circle is given as 10 feet. The formula to calculate the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where C is the circumference and r is the radius. By rearranging this formula, we can find the radius as C/2π. Substituting the given circumference of 10 feet, we get the radius as 10/2π. Now, substituting this radius into the formula for the area, we get A = π(10/2π)^2 = 25/π square feet.

185. If p is divisible by both 20 and 4, which of the following statements is NOT true?

Explanation

If p is divisible by both 20 and 4, then it must be divisible by their common multiple, which is 20. Therefore, p must be divisible by 20. However, being divisible by 20 does not necessarily mean that p is divisible by 80, as 80 is not a factor of 20. Therefore, the statement "p must be divisible by 80" is not true.

186. Set G is arranged in numerical order. The mode of set G is 7 and the arithmetic mean of the set is also 7. Find the value of y. G = (5,6,7,x,y,)

Explanation

Since the mode of set G is 7, it means that the number 7 appears most frequently in the set. Additionally, since the arithmetic mean of the set is 7, it means that the sum of all the numbers in the set divided by the total number of elements is equal to 7. So, we can calculate the sum of the numbers in the set by multiplying the mean (7) by the total number of elements (6), which gives us 42. Since the sum of the numbers in the set is 42 and we already know the values of all the other numbers in the set, we can subtract the sum of the known numbers (5+6+7+x) from 42 to find the value of y, which is 10.

188. Of the 40 candies in a bowl, 1 fifth contains nuts and 1 fourth contain caramel. If 6 of the candies contain both nuts and caramel, what percent of the candies contain neither nuts nor caramel?

Explanation

Out of the 40 candies, 6 candies contain both nuts and caramel. Therefore, the remaining candies that do not contain nuts or caramel can be calculated by subtracting the candies with nuts and caramel from the total number of candies: 40 - 6 = 34. To find the percentage of candies that do not contain nuts or caramel, divide the number of candies without nuts or caramel by the total number of candies and multiply by 100: (34/40) * 100 = 85%. However, the question asks for the percentage of candies that contain neither nuts nor caramel, so subtracting this percentage from 100 gives us: 100 - 85 = 15%. Therefore, the correct answer is 15%, which is not listed as an option. Hence, the correct answer cannot be determined from the given options.

189. There are 6 people and 6 chairs. In how many different ways can the 6 people sit in the 6 chairs?

Explanation

There are 6 people and 6 chairs, so each person can choose from 6 available chairs. The first person has 6 choices, the second person has 5 choices (since one chair is already occupied), the third person has 4 choices, and so on. Therefore, the total number of different ways the 6 people can sit in the 6 chairs is 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720.

190. Sheila has twice as many marbles as Jenna. If Sheila gives Jenna 5 marbles. She will still have 10 more marbles than Jenna. How many marbles does sheila have?

Explanation

If Sheila has twice as many marbles as Jenna, and after giving Jenna 5 marbles she will still have 10 more marbles than Jenna, we can set up the equation 2x - 5 = x + 10, where x represents the number of marbles Jenna has. Solving this equation, we find that x = 15. Since Sheila has twice as many marbles as Jenna, she must have 2 * 15 = 30 marbles. Therefore, the answer is 30.

191. ABCD is a rectangle. The measure of angle BFA is 60 degrees and the measure of angle FAE is 40 degrees. Find the measure, in degrees, of angle AED.

Explanation

Angle BFA and angle FAE are both angles in a triangle that share side AF. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, the third angle in this triangle, angle AFE, can be found by subtracting the measures of angle BFA and angle FAE from 180 degrees. Angle AFE = 180° - 60° - 40° = 80°.

Since angle AFE and angle AED are corresponding angles in a rectangle, they are congruent. Therefore, the measure of angle AED is also 80 degrees.

The table above shows the distribution of eye color and hair color for 64 children. How many of these children have blond hair or brown eyes, but not both?

Explanation

The table shows the distribution of eye color and hair color for 64 children. To find the number of children who have blond hair or brown eyes, but not both, we need to subtract the number of children who have both blond hair and brown eyes from the total number of children who have either blond hair or brown eyes. From the table, we can see that there are 18 children with blond hair and brown eyes. Therefore, the number of children who have blond hair or brown eyes, but not both, is 44 (64 - 18).

193. On a scale drawing, a distance of 1 foot is represented by a segment 0.25 inch in length. How long must a segment on the scale drawing be to represent a 36-inch distance?

Explanation

In the given scale drawing, 1 foot is represented by a segment 0.25 inch in length. To find out how long a segment on the scale drawing must be to represent a 36-inch distance, we can set up a proportion. Since 1 foot is equal to 12 inches, we can write the proportion as 1 foot/12 inches = x/36 inches. Solving for x, we find that x = 3 feet. Therefore, the segment on the scale drawing must be 0.75 inch in length to represent a 36-inch distance.

199. The radius of cylinder is 2x and the hieght of the cylinder is 8x + 2. What is the volume of the cylinder in terms of x?

Explanation

The volume of a cylinder is calculated by multiplying the area of the base (which is the area of a circle with radius r) by the height. In this case, the radius is given as 2x and the height is given as 8x + 2. Therefore, the volume would be (pi * (2x)^2 * (8x + 2)), which simplifies to (16x^3 + 4x^2) * pi.

200. For the set of data { 9, 9, 10, 11, 16}, which statement is true?

Explanation

In this set of data, the mean is greater than the median. The mean is calculated by summing all the values and dividing by the total number of values, while the median is the middle value when the data is arranged in ascending order. In this case, the mean is 11 and the median is also 11. However, since there is a higher value of 16 in the data set, it pulls the mean higher than the median, resulting in the statement "mean > median" being true.
