TEAS Test Practice Math

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To solve the equation, we first distribute the 3 to both terms inside the parentheses: 6y + 150 - 4y = 500. Combining like terms, we get 2y + 150 = 500. Next, we isolate the variable by subtracting 150 from both sides, giving us 2y = 350. Finally, we divide by 2 to solve for y, resulting in y = 175. Choice B is correct because it correctly follows the order of operations and simplifies the equation accurately. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not yield the correct value of y when substituted back into the original equation.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values, while the median is the middle value when data is ordered. In a skewed distribution, the mean is pulled towards the tail, making it less than the median. Therefore, statement A is true. Explanation: A: The mean is less than the median - True, as explained above. B: The mode is greater than the median - Not necessarily true. Mode can be less than or equal to the median. C: The mode is less than the mean, median, and range - Not always true. Mode can be greater than the mean or median. D: The mode is equal to the range - Incorrect, mode and range are unrelated statistical measures.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the percentage of rainfall received in October, divide the total rainfall received in October by the total rainfall during the timeframe and multiply by 100. Let's say the total rainfall in October is 177 mm and the total rainfall during the timeframe is 1000 mm. (177/1000) * 100 = 17.7%. So, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the percentage of rainfall received in October based on the given data.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the total number of clients secured in a given time, we divide the total clients by the clients secured in one period. 24 clients ÷ 3 clients/8 months = 8 periods. To find the total time, we multiply the periods by the time for one period. 8 periods × 8 months = 64 months. Therefore, Robert has secured 24 new clients after 64 months. The other choices are incorrect because they do not align with the correct calculation.
