Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the amount the friend paid for their car, we need to set up an equation. Let x be the friend's car price. The consumer paid $48,000, which is $2,000 less than twice the friend's car price, so 2x - $2,000 = $48,000. Solving for x, 2x = $48,000 + $2,000 = $50,000, therefore x = $25,000. Choice C is correct. Choices A, B, and D do not satisfy the given condition in the question. A is less than $25,000, B is greater than $25,000 but not $2,000 less than twice, and D is greater than $25,000.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because it demonstrates a negative correlation between two variables. As tennis balls age, they tend to have less bounce, indicating that an increase in one variable (age) leads to a decrease in the other variable (bounce). This negative correlation shows an inverse relationship between the age of the tennis balls and their bounce level. Choices A, B, and D do not demonstrate a negative correlation as they either show a positive correlation or do not show a correlation at all between the variables mentioned.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 25 g. A pencil is a lightweight object typically weighing in grams, not kilograms, centimeters, or milligrams. The weight of 25 g aligns with the standard weight of a pencil. Kilograms (A) are too heavy, centimeters (B) are units of length, and milligrams (C) are too light for a pencil's weight. So, the most likely weight of a pencil is 25 grams.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. So, for 3.2 liters, you would calculate 3.2 x 1000 = 3200 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is C (3200). Choice A (0.32) is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion. Choice B (32) is incorrect as it only accounts for liters, not milliliters. Choice D (320) is incorrect as it doesn't convert liters to milliliters accurately.
