TEAS 7 Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the number of male patients not overweight as children, we first find the total number of male patients by calculating 30% of 100, which equals 30. Then, we find the number of overweight men (10% of 30), which is 3. Subtracting 3 from the total number of male patients gives us the number of male patients not overweight as children, which is 27 (30 - 3 = 27). Therefore, the correct answer is C. Option A is too low, B does not account for the overweight men, and D is too high based on the calculations.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because it accurately describes the rate of change as the snow melting by 5 centimeters every day. This statement represents a consistent decrease in the snow level over time. Choice A is incorrect as it implies a higher rate of melting than what is described. Choice C is incorrect as it describes an increase rather than a decrease. Choice D is also incorrect as it describes an increase instead of the intended decrease in snow level. Therefore, choice B is the most accurate representation of the rate of change in this scenario.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Shifts = (2)(5) + 4. 1. Nurse Cameron worked 5 shifts in week 1. 2. In week 2, she worked twice as many shifts as in week 1, which is 2 * 5 = 10 shifts. 3. In week 3, she added 4 shifts to the number of shifts worked in week 2, which is 10 + 4 = 14 shifts. 4. Therefore, the equation describing the number of shifts Nurse Cameron worked in week 3 is (2)(5) + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14 shifts. Summary of incorrect choices: B: Shifts = (4)(5) + 2 - Incorrect because it does not account for the doubling of shifts in week 2 and the addition of 4 shifts in week 3. C: Shifts = 5 + 2 + 4 - Incorrect as it

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the combinations Tom can purchase, you need to determine the total cost of ink cartridges and paper. Let c be the number of cartridges and p be the number of reams. The total cost is 30c + 5p. Since Tom has $100, the inequality is 30c + 5p ≤ 100. This is because the total cost should not exceed $100. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect because it implies Tom can only spend exactly $100, which restricts his options. Choice C is incorrect as it states the total cost must be more than $100, which goes against the budget constraint. Choice D is incorrect as it allows for the total cost to be less than $100, which is not a valid option given Tom's budget.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To determine the order of groups from smallest to largest, we need to compare the fractions given for each group. Given that 4/15 < 2/5 < 1/3: 1. Group Alpha (4/15) < Group Beta (2/5) < Group Gamma (1/3) Thus, the correct order is Group Alpha, Group Gamma, Group Beta (B). The rationale is based on comparing the fractions numerically to determine the relative sizes of the groups. The other choices are incorrect because they do not follow the order of fractions provided in the question, leading to incorrect group size comparisons.
