ATI TEAS Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The perimeter of a hexagon is 6 times the length of one side. So, for a side length of 320 feet, the perimeter is 6 * 320 = 1920 feet. The cost of fencing is $1.75 per foot, so the total cost will be 1920 * $1.75 = $3360. Choice A is incorrect as it does not consider the correct perimeter calculation. Choice B is incorrect as it underestimates the total cost. Choice D is incorrect as it overestimates the total cost.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Correct Answer: A Rationale: 1. The total cost is directly proportional to the number of hours rented. 2. The cost per hour is $3.60, so multiplying the number of hours (h) by the cost per hour will give the total cost. 3. Therefore, the equation C = 3.60h correctly represents this relationship. Summary: B: Incorrect, as it incorrectly adds the number of hours to the cost per hour. C: Incorrect, as it unnecessarily adds a fixed cost of $10.80 to the total cost equation. D: Incorrect, as it incorrectly assumes a fixed cost per hour of $10.80.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the total amount contributed, add the amounts given by each roommate: $12.03 + $11.96 + $12.06 = $36.05. Since we are estimating, we can round the total to $36. Therefore, the correct answer is C: $36. Choice A: $34 is incorrect because the total amount is more than $34. Choice B: $35 is incorrect because the total amount is more than $35. Choice D: $37 is incorrect because the total amount is less than $37.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: median. The median is the middle value when the data is arranged in numerical order. In this case, the outlier of 11 houses would significantly impact the mean, making it less accurate. The mode is not relevant for continuous data like the number of houses sold. The range only gives the difference between the maximum and minimum values, which does not provide a good measure of central tendency. Thus, the median is the best choice as it is not influenced by outliers and provides a more accurate representation of the typical number of houses sold per year.
