Math Practice TEAS Test

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To determine how many questions Joshua must answer correctly, we set up the inequality: 4x > 92, where x represents the number of questions answered correctly. With 30 questions, Joshua needs more than 92 points, meaning he must score more than (30 questions * 4 points per question = 120 points). Therefore, answer B (4x > 92) is correct. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the requirement of scoring more than 92 points to qualify for the scholarship.

Correct Answer: A

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the total amount Erma will spend, first, find the price after the 25% discount on the cheaper sweater: $44 - (25% of $44) = $44 - $11 = $33. Then, add the price of the other sweater: $33 + $50 = $83. The correct answer is A because $83 is the total amount Erma will spend after the discount on the cheaper sweater. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To solve the equation, we follow the order of operations: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). Step 1: 5 + 3 = 8 Step 2: 4 - 6 = -2 Step 3: -2 / 2 = -1 Step 4: 8 - 1 = 7 Therefore, the correct answer is 7 (Option D). Option A is incorrect as it does not consider all operations. Option C is incorrect as it does not correctly follow the order of operations. Option D is incorrect as it does not correctly calculate the result.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Equals. In math, "is" signifies equality between two expressions or values. It indicates that the quantities on both sides of the "=" sign are the same. For example, in the equation 2 + 3 = 5, the "is" represents that the sum of 2 and 3 equals 5. Explanation for other choices: B: Multiply - The symbol for multiplication is "*", not "is." C: Subtract - The symbol for subtraction is "-", not "is." D: Add - The symbol for addition is "+", not "is." Therefore, the correct interpretation of "is" in math is to denote equality, making choice A the correct answer.
