Practice Math TEAS TEST

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To solve the equation 3(2x+5)=11x+5 for x, first distribute the 3 on the left side to get 6x+15=11x+5. Next, move all terms with x to one side by subtracting 6x from both sides to get 15=5x+5. Then, subtract 5 from both sides to get 10=5x. Finally, divide by 5 to solve for x, giving x=2. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A is incorrect because x is not equal to 1. Choice C is incorrect because x is not equal to -1. Choice D is incorrect because x is not equal to -2.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the correct answer, we first calculate how much of the burger was left after one friend ate a quarter (3/4 left). Then, the other two friends divide this among themselves equally, so each receives half of the remaining portion (3/4 * 1/2 = 3/8). Therefore, each of the other two friends received 3/8 of the burger, which is represented by choice D (8-Mar). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the correct calculation of dividing the remaining portion equally between the two friends.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Bell-shaped. This is because a symmetric distribution with a single peak is characteristic of a bell-shaped distribution, also known as a normal distribution. In a bell-shaped distribution, the data is evenly distributed around the mean, creating a symmetrical pattern. Choice A (Uniform) is incorrect because a uniform distribution would show an equal frequency of weights across all values, without a distinct peak. Choice B (Bimodal) is incorrect because a bimodal distribution would have two distinct peaks, indicating two separate groups of weights rather than a single peak. Choice D (Skewed right) is incorrect because a right-skewed distribution would have a tail extending to the right, with the majority of weights concentrated on the left side, not centered around a single peak.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find 31% of 426, you multiply 426 by 0.31. So, 426 * 0.31 = 132.06. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 132.06. Option A (425.69) is close but incorrect. Options C (13.7) and D (0.07) are significantly lower than the actual result, indicating they are incorrect.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Correct Answer: A Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you first subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and then divide by 1.8. This is because the conversion formula is (F - 32) / 1.8. To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, you multiply the Celsius temperature by 1.8 and then add 32. The formula for this conversion is (C * 1.8) + 32. Therefore, choice A is correct as it follows the correct conversion formulas for both Fahrenheit to Celsius and Celsius to Fahrenheit. Summary of other choices: B: Incorrect because dividing by 2 in Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion is incorrect. C: Incorrect because multiplying by 2 in Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion is incorrect. D: Incorrect because subtracting 30 in Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion is incorrect.
