TEAS Practice Test Math

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Dependent. In this study, the weight of the babies is the variable being measured and studied in relation to different time intervals after birth. The weight of the babies depends on the time intervals, making it the dependent variable. Other choices are incorrect because: A: Independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or controlled by the researcher, in this case, time intervals are the independent variable. B: Control variable is a variable that is kept constant to prevent it from influencing the results, weight is not a control variable. D: Constant is not applicable in this context as weight is not a constant value in the study, it varies with time intervals.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the ratio of girls to boys, we divide the number of girls by the number of boys. In this case, there are 26 girls and 22 boys. So, the ratio of girls to boys is 26:22, which simplifies to 13:11. Therefore, choice B (13:11) is the correct answer. Choice A (26:11) is incorrect because it incorrectly combines the total number of girls with the number of boys. Choice C (13:22) is incorrect because it reverses the order of girls and boys in the ratio. Choice D (11:13) is incorrect because it flips the ratio of girls to boys.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because rational numbers are those that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. This includes integers, fractions, and decimals that terminate or repeat. Irrational numbers, on the other hand, cannot be expressed as a fraction and have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal representations. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately define rational and irrational numbers. Choice B only partially describes rational numbers, excluding some fractions, and does not properly define irrational numbers. Choice C incorrectly categorizes all whole numbers as rational and all decimals as irrational. Choice D is also inaccurate because not all rational numbers are terminating decimals, and not all irrational numbers are repeating decimals.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the correct order of the groups, we need to compare the fractions given for each group. Group X has 1/4 of the doctors, Group Y has 1/3, and Group Z has 1/6. Comparing the fractions, we see that 1/3 is larger than 1/4 but smaller than 1/6. Therefore, Group Y has the most doctors, followed by Group X, and then Group Z. Hence, the correct order is D: Group Y, Group X, Group Z. This is because Group Y has the largest fraction of doctors, followed by Group X, and then Group Z. Choices A, B, and C can be eliminated because they do not follow the correct order based on the fractions provided.
