Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the actual distance in miles, multiply the map distance by the scale factor. 3.2 inches * 45 miles/inch = 144 miles. Choice A is correct because it correctly applies the scale factor. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not properly calculate the actual distance using the scale provided on the map.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Veronica's total expenses for the surround sound system and maintenance package are $3,015 + $5,218 = $8,233. To find the total price of her new car, we need to add this amount to the original price of the car. Since the correct answer is $48,443, the calculation would be $48,443 (total price) - $8,233 (additional expenses) = $40,210 (original price of the car). Therefore, option B is correct. Option A is higher because it doesn't subtract the additional expenses. Option C and D are lower because they don't account for the additional expenses at all.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the circumference of a circle, we use the formula C = 2πr, where r is the radius. Given that the radius is 3 inches, we substitute r = 3 into the formula: C = 2π(3) = 6π ≈ 18.85 inches. The best estimate among the choices is C: 18 inches, as it is closest to the actual calculated value of 18.85 inches. Choice A (12 inches) and B (16 inches) are too small, while choice D (24 inches) is too large compared to the calculated circumference.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the percentage of rainfall received in October, divide the total rainfall received in October by the total rainfall during the timeframe and multiply by 100. Let's say the total rainfall in October is 177 mm and the total rainfall during the timeframe is 1000 mm. (177/1000) * 100 = 17.7%. So, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the percentage of rainfall received in October based on the given data.
