Practice Math TEAS TEST

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the answer, calculate the volume of the room: 9 ft * 9 ft * 9 ft = 729 cubic feet. Then, calculate the volume of one box: 2 ft * 2 ft * 2 ft = 8 cubic feet. Divide the room's volume by the box's volume: 729 cubic feet / 8 cubic feet = 91.125. Since we can't have a fraction of a box, the maximum number of whole boxes that can be stored is 91, which is closest to option D: 92. Option A (125) is too high, option B (64) is too low, and option C (18) is also too low.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C (12.325 mL). To calculate this, first, convert 2.5 teaspoons to mL by multiplying by 4.93: 2.5 * 4.93 = 12.325 mL. Choice A (5.33 mL) is incorrect because it is less than the correct amount. Choice B (7.43 mL) is also incorrect as it is lower than the correct value. Choice D (0.507 mL) is incorrect because it is significantly lower than the correct amount. Therefore, the correct answer is C as it accurately reflects the conversion of teaspoons to milliliters based on the given conversion rate.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 5 in the second decimal place. In the number 0.08573, the digit 5 is in the second decimal place after the decimal point. The first decimal place is occupied by 0, the second by 8, the third by 5, the fourth by 7, and the fifth by 3. Therefore, the correct positioning of decimal places in this number is as follows: 0.0 8 5 7 3. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the positioning of decimal places in the given number.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The data set has two distinct peaks at values 2 and 8, making it bimodal. This is evident as there are two modes in the data set. The frequencies of 2 and 8 are higher compared to the other values, creating the bimodal distribution. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. A uniform distribution would have equal frequencies for all values, which is not the case here. Right-skewed distribution would have a long tail on the right side, which is also not observed. Left-skewed distribution would have a long tail on the left side, which is not the case here.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 3x-12. To express 'Twelve less than thrice a number,' we first represent 'a number' as x. Then 'thrice a number' is 3x. Finally, 'Twelve less than thrice a number' translates to 3x-12. Other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the given expression. Choice B (12-3x) reverses the order of operations, choice C (3-12x) incorrectly multiplies instead of subtracting, and choice D (12x-3) mistakenly subtracts the number from 12 instead of subtracting 12 from the number multiplied by 3.
