TEAS Test Math Questions

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To simplify the expression 3x - 5x + 2, we first combine like terms. 3x - 5x = -2x, so the expression becomes -2x + 2. Thus, the correct answer is D: -2x. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly combines the x terms without changing their signs. Choice B is incorrect as it only considers the x terms and ignores the constant term. Choice C is incorrect as it incorrectly combines the x terms without changing their signs.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the area of a circle, we use the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius. Since the diameter is 16 cm, the radius is half of that, which is 8 cm. Plugging this into the formula, A = 3.14 * 8^2 = 3.14 * 64 = 200.96 cm^2. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A: 25.12 - This is incorrect as it is much smaller than the correct answer. Choice B: 50.24 - This is incorrect as it is also smaller than the correct answer. Choice C: 100.48 - This is incorrect as it is still smaller than the correct answer.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to kiloliters, we divide by 1000 since 1 kiloliter is equal to 1000 liters. In this case, 147 liters divided by 1000 equals 0.147 kiloliters, so the correct answer is A. Choice B is 10 times the correct answer, choice C is 100 times the correct answer, and choice D is 1000 times the correct answer, making them incorrect.

Correct Answer: C

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert fluid ounces to gallons, we know that 128 fluid ounces = 1 gallon. Therefore, for 1,000 fluid ounces, we divide 1,000 by 128 to get approximately 7.8125 gallons (A). The correct answer is A because it correctly represents the conversion of fluid ounces to gallons. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the conversion factor. B is twice the correct answer, C is four times, and D is eight times the correct conversion.
