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
How many feet are in 6 yards?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert yards to feet, remember that 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. To find how many feet are in 6 yards, you multiply 6 by 3, which equals 18 feet. Therefore, the correct answer is 18 feet. Understanding this conversion is essential for accurate measurements in various situations such as construction, crafting, or any activity involving distance calculations.
Question 4 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.
Question 5 of 5
A couple dining at a restaurant receives a bill for $38.40. They wish to leave a 15% gratuity. What is the estimated gratuity amount?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate a 15% gratuity on a $38.40 bill, you multiply $38.40 by 0.15 (15%). This calculation results in $5.76, which is the estimated gratuity amount. Therefore, the correct answer is $5.76 (Choice B). Leaving a 15% gratuity is a common practice to show appreciation for the service provided by the restaurant staff.
