Question 1 of 5
A student performs the following estimations: 24 + 190 = 210, 151 + 319 = 470, 974 + 1022 = 1990. Based on these estimations, what is the student's estimate of 452 + 5017?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The student's pattern involves rounding numbers to the nearest tens or hundreds to simplify calculations. By analyzing the given examples, it is evident that the student tends to round numbers up or down, leading to slight variations from the exact sum. Applying the same strategy to 452 and 5017, we can estimate 450 + 5020 = 5470. Therefore, choice B is the correct estimate for the sum of 452 + 5017.

Question 2 of 5
Translate the phrase 'Five less than twice the number' into a mathematical expression.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To translate 'Five less than twice the number' into a mathematical expression, you first calculate twice the number (2x) and then subtract 5 from it. This gives you 2x-5. Therefore, choice B, 2x-5, accurately represents the mathematical expression for 'Five less than twice the number.' The phrase 'Five less than' implies subtraction, and 'twice the number' is represented by 2x. Thus, when you subtract 5 from twice the number, the correct expression is 2x-5.
Question 3 of 5
A worker earns $8000.00 per week before any tax deductions. The following taxes are deducted each week: $83.00 federal income tax, $38.00 state income tax, and $79.00 social security tax. How much will the worker make in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To determine the worker's earnings in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted, start by calculating the total weekly tax deductions: $83.00 + $38.00 + $79.00 = $200.00. Subtract the total weekly tax deductions from the weekly earnings: $8000.00 - $200.00 = $7800.00. Now, to find the total earnings after 4 weeks, multiply the weekly earnings after deductions by 4: $7800.00 x 4 = $31,200.00. Therefore, the worker will make $31,200.00 in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is the correct decimal placement for the product of 1.3 � 0.47?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Multiplying 1.3 by 0.47 gives 0.611.
Question 5 of 5
Solve the equation 2(4x + 3) = 7x + 5 for x. Which of the following is correct?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation, first distribute the 2 on the left side: 8x + 6 = 7x + 5. Next, move all terms involving x to one side by subtracting 7x from both sides: x + 6 = 5. Then, subtract 6 from both sides to isolate x: x = -1. Therefore, the correct answer is A, -1, as it satisfies the equation 2(4*(-1) + 3) = 7*(-1) + 5. Substituting x = -1 back into the original equation gives 2(4*(-1) + 3) = 7*(-1) + 5, which simplifies to -2 + 6 = -7 + 5, and finally to 4 = -2, proving that -1 is indeed the correct solution.
