Think of it more __ a promise than a threat.

Explanation

The correct answer is "of". This is because the idiom "think of it more of a promise than a threat" means to consider something as more of a commitment or assurance rather than a warning or intimidation. The word "of" is used to indicate the nature or characteristic of the thing being compared, in this case, emphasizing the positive aspect of the situation.

96. What percentage is the fourth distribution sextile of a normal bell curve?

Explanation

The fourth distribution sextile of a normal bell curve represents the percentage of data points that fall within the fourth section of the curve. In a normal distribution, each section represents one standard deviation from the mean. Since the total area under the curve is 100%, each section represents 100%/6 = 16.67%. Therefore, the fourth distribution sextile represents 16.67% of the data points, which can be rounded to 17% or approximated as 34% when considering both the fourth and fifth sections together.

Submit
97. What is the formula for the probability of event A and the probability of event B?
(Pa=probability of event A, Pb=probability of event B)

Explanation

The formula for the probability of event A and the probability of event B is given by multiplying the probability of event A (Pa) with the probability of event B (Pb). This is because when two independent events occur, the probability of both events occurring together is equal to the product of their individual probabilities. Therefore, the correct answer is (Pa)(Pb).

Submit

99. What is the formula to determine the length of the diagonal of a box?
(d=diagonal, l=length, w=width, h=height)

Explanation

The formula to determine the length of the diagonal of a box is d2 = l2 + w2 + h2. This formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In the case of a box, the diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle formed by the length, width, and height. Therefore, to find the length of the diagonal, we need to square the length, width, and height, and then add them together.

Submit
100. What is the formula for the probability of event A or the probability of event B?
(Pa=probability of event A, Pb=probability of event B)

Explanation

The formula for the probability of event A or the probability of event B is Pa+Pb-(PaPb). This formula takes into account the individual probabilities of event A and event B, and subtracts the probability of both events happening at the same time (PaPb). This is because when calculating the probability of A or B, we want to avoid counting the intersection of A and B twice.

Submit
101. Complete the idiom:
His friends do not believe the ring he bought at the auction __ Jackie O's; they all think he was tricked.

Explanation

The correct answer is "to be." This idiom is used to indicate that someone or something is perceived or regarded as a certain way. In this context, it means that his friends do not believe that the ring he bought at the auction is actually Jackie O's; they think he was tricked into thinking it was.

102. X1/2=?
(option+v=√)

Explanation

The given equation x1/2 = √x is asking for the value of x when it is raised to the power of 1/2, which is the same as taking the square root of x. Therefore, the answer to the equation is √x.

Submit
103. There are X racers. If there are three winning positions for a race and A racers can come in first place, B racers can come in second place, C racers can come in third place, and D represents the left over racers who did not place, what is the probability?

Explanation

The given answer, x!/a!b!c!d!,X!/A!B!C!D!, represents the probability of the different combinations of racers finishing in the specified positions. The numerator x! represents the total number of ways the racers can finish the race. The denominator a!b!c!d! represents the number of ways the racers in each group can finish in their respective positions. The same logic applies to the second fraction, X!/A!B!C!D!. Therefore, the answer calculates the probability of the different combinations of racers finishing in the specified positions.

Submit
104. What is the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle?
(option+v = √. x2 = x*x. 1/2 = .5, b=base)

Explanation

The formula for the area of an equilateral triangle is b^2√3/4. This formula is derived from the fact that an equilateral triangle has all sides equal, so the base (b) is also equal to the length of any side. To find the area, we need to square the base (b^2) and multiply it by the square root of 3 (√3). Finally, we divide the result by 4 to get the area of the equilateral triangle.

Submit
105. What are the coordinates of the y-intercept of a line (if it exists)?
(b=y-intercept. m=slope)

Explanation

The coordinates of the y-intercept of a line are given by (-b/m, 0). This means that the x-coordinate is -b/m and the y-coordinate is 0. The y-intercept is the point where the line intersects the y-axis, and since the y-axis has a y-coordinate of 0 for all points, the y-coordinate of the y-intercept is always 0. Therefore, the answer (-b/m, 0) is correct.

Submit
106. What is the formula for the surface area of a cylinder?
(option+p=π)

Explanation

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is 2(πr^2) + (2πrh). This formula includes two terms: 2(πr^2) represents the area of the two circular bases of the cylinder, while (2πrh) represents the area of the curved surface of the cylinder. By adding these two terms together, we get the total surface area of the cylinder.

Submit
107. Complete the idiom:
She is so beautiful __ exquisite.

Explanation

The correct answer is "as to be." This completes the idiom "She is so beautiful as to be exquisite." The phrase "as to be" is used to emphasize the extreme beauty of the person being described. It suggests that the person's beauty is so extraordinary that it reaches the level of being exquisite.

Submit
108. What is the ratio of the sides of a 30/60/90 right triangle?
(option+v=√)

Explanation

The ratio of the sides of a 30/60/90 right triangle is 1:√3:2. In a 30/60/90 triangle, the side opposite the 30-degree angle is half the length of the hypotenuse, and the side opposite the 60-degree angle is √3 times the length of the side opposite the 30-degree angle. Therefore, the ratio of the sides is 1:√3:2.

Submit
109. Even + Odd = ?

Explanation

When we add an even number and an odd number, the result will always be an odd number. This is because even numbers can be represented as 2n, where n is an integer, and odd numbers can be represented as 2n+1. So, when we add an even number (2n) and an odd number (2n+1), we get 2n + 2n + 1 = 4n + 1, which is always an odd number.

Submit
110. Odd + Odd = ?

Explanation

When two odd numbers are added together, the result is always an even number. This is because odd numbers can be represented as 2n+1, where n is any integer. So, when two odd numbers (2n+1) and (2m+1) are added together, the result can be written as 2n+1+2m+1 = 2(n+m+1), which is an even number. Therefore, the answer to the given question is "Even".

Submit
111. (Even)(Odd)

Explanation

The given answer is "Even" because when we multiply an even number with any number, the result is always an even number. In this case, "Even" is multiplied with both "Even" and "Odd", and the result is "Even" in both cases. Therefore, the answer remains "Even".

Submit
112. (Odd)(Odd) = ?

Explanation

When multiplying two odd numbers, the result is always an odd number. This is because an odd number can be represented as 2n+1, where n is an integer. When we multiply two odd numbers, we get (2n+1)(2m+1) = 4nm + 2n + 2m + 1. Since 4nm, 2n, and 2m are all even numbers, the result will be an odd number plus an even number, which is still an odd number. Therefore, the product of two odd numbers is always odd.
