Question 1 of 5
A honeycomb cell has six equal sides, each measuring 8mm. What is its perimeter?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the perimeter of the honeycomb cell, we add the lengths of all six sides, which are 8mm each. Perimeter = 6 * 8mm = 48mm. Choice C (48mm) is correct. Other choices are incorrect because they do not account for the total length of all sides. Option A (32mm) would be the perimeter of a square with sides of 8mm. Option B (40mm) and Option D (56mm) are not the correct total length of all six sides.
Question 2 of 5
The price dropped from $200 to $150. By what percentage did the price decrease?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To calculate the percentage decrease, we use the formula: (Original Price - New Price) / Original Price * 100%. In this case, it would be (200 - 150) / 200 * 100% = 50 / 200 * 100% = 25%. Therefore, the correct answer is D (25%). Option A (5%), B (10%), and C (20%) are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the 25% decrease in price.
Question 3 of 5
A farmer wants to plant trees around the outside boundaries of his rectangular field with dimensions of 650 meters 780 meters. Each tree requires 5 meters of free space all around it from the stem. How many trees can he plant?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To calculate the number of trees, we need to determine the area available for planting trees after considering the space each tree requires. The total area of the rectangular field is 650m * 780m = 507,000 sq. meters. Each tree requires a space of (5+5) meters horizontally and (5+5) meters vertically around it, totaling 10m * 10m = 100 sq. meters per tree. Therefore, the area needed for each tree is 100 sq. meters. To find the number of trees that can be planted, we divide the total area of the field by the area needed for each tree: 507,000 sq. meters / 100 sq. meters per tree = 5070 trees. However, since the space around the boundary cannot accommodate a full tree, we have to deduct the trees that cannot be planted along the boundary. The number of trees that cannot be planted along the length of the field = 780m /
Question 4 of 5
If Mr. Johnson gives half of his pay to his family, $250 to his landlord, and has exactly 3/7 of his pay left over, how much pay does he receive?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Step 1: Let Mr. Johnson's pay be x. Step 2: He gives half to family, so he has x/2 left. Step 3: He pays $250 to landlord, leaving him with x/2 - $250. Step 4: He has 3/7 of his pay left, so x/2 - $250 = 3x/7. Step 5: Solve for x: x/2 - $250 = 3x/7. Step 6: Simplify and solve to get x = $3,500. Therefore, the correct answer is B: $3,500. Summary: A: $3,600 - Incorrect. Does not satisfy the given conditions. C: $2,800 - Incorrect. Does not satisfy the given conditions. D: $1,750 - Incorrect. Does not satisfy the given conditions.
Question 5 of 5
An IV drip delivers medication at a rate of 40 drops per minute. Each drop contains 0.05 milliliters of the medication. How many milliliters of medication are delivered in one hour?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To calculate the amount of medication delivered in one hour, first find the amount delivered in one minute: 40 drops/min * 0.05 mL/drop = 2 mL/min. Then, multiply by the number of minutes in an hour: 2 mL/min * 60 min = 120 mL. Therefore, the correct answer is D (120 milliliters). Summary: A: Incorrect. Not enough medication delivered. B: Incorrect. Not enough medication delivered. C: Incorrect. Too low of an amount delivered.
