Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the total square inches of wrapping paper needed, we first find the surface area of the box. The surface area of a rectangular box is calculated by adding the areas of all its faces. For this box, the surface area is 2(14x8) + 2(14x6) + 2(8x6) = 224 + 168 + 96 = 488 square inches. Therefore, the correct answer is C (488). Choice A (56) is incorrect because it is too small and does not account for all sides of the box. Choice B (244) is also incorrect as it is not the total surface area of the box. Choice D (672) is incorrect as it is too large and does not accurately represent the wrapping paper needed.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To solve for x, we add 7 to both sides of the equation: 2x - 7 + 7 = 3 + 7. This simplifies to 2x = 10. Then, we divide both sides by 2 to solve for x: 2x/2 = 10/2, which gives x = 5. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A is incorrect because 4 does not satisfy the equation. Choice B is incorrect as x = 3 does not make the equation true. Choice C is incorrect as x = -2 does not satisfy the equation either.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 3600 cubic inches. To calculate the volume of the aquarium, you multiply the length, width, and height: 30 x 10 x 12 = 3600 cubic inches. This is the total capacity of the aquarium when filled completely. Choice B (52 cubic inches) is too small as it doesn't consider the full dimensions of the aquarium. Choice C (312 cubic inches) and Choice D (1144 cubic inches) are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the volume based on the given dimensions.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: $600. The first step is to calculate the amount saved after paying rent and utilities. Since she uses 2/5 for rent and utilities, she saves 3/5 of her monthly contribution. Then, she saves half of this amount for incidental expenditures, which means she spends the other half on medical supplies. Therefore, she spends 1/4 of her monthly contribution on medical supplies. If we let her monthly contribution be x, then 1/4 of x equals $600. Therefore, the correct answer is $600. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the calculations based on the given information.
