Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To solve 3x + 2 = 20, first subtract 2 from both sides to isolate 3x. This gives 3x = 18. Then divide by 3 to solve for x, yielding x = 6. Choice C is correct because 3(6) + 2 equals 20. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not satisfy the original equation when substituted back in.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert a percentage to a fraction, we divide the percentage by 100. So, 290% is equal to 290/100. Simplifying this fraction gives us 29/10. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Option A (29/10) is the simplified form of the correct answer. Option B (58/20) and Option C (145/50) are incorrect as they are not equivalent to 290%.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the sum of 4 + 5 + 12 + 9, we add each number sequentially: 4 + 5 = 9 9 + 12 = 21 21 + 9 = 30 Therefore, the correct answer is B: 30. Option A (20), C (40), and D (50) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the sum of the given numbers.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find how many feet of wood remain, subtract the length cut off from the original length. 7 1/2 - 3 1/4 = 4 1/4. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 4 1/4 feet. Choice B, 4 1/2 feet, is incorrect as it does not match the subtraction result. Choice C, 3 1/2 feet, is incorrect as it does not account for the fraction left after subtracting. Choice D, 3 3/4 feet, is incorrect as it overestimates the amount left after the cut.
