TEAS Math Questions Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following equations correctly models the relationship between x and y when y is three times x?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Step 1: Given that y is three times x, the equation should reflect this relationship. Step 2: The equation y = 3x correctly models this relationship, where y is equal to three times x. Step 3: Option A (y = 3x) is the correct choice as it directly represents y as three times x. Summary: Choices B, C, and D do not correctly model the relationship between x and y as specified. Choice B (x = 3y) is the inverse relationship, Choice C (y = x + 3) adds 3 to x instead of representing y as three times x, and Choice D (y = x / 3) represents y as x divided by 3, not three times x.

Question 2 of 5

A study was conducted where patients were divided into three groups: 1/2 in Group Alpha, 1/3 in Group Beta, and 1/6 in Group Gamma. Which group is the smallest?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine which group is the smallest, we need to compare the fractions representing the proportion of patients in each group. Group Alpha has 1/2, Group Beta has 1/3, and Group Gamma has 1/6 of the total patients. To find the smallest group, we look for the smallest fraction. Among the choices, 1/6 in Group Gamma is the smallest fraction, hence Group Gamma is the smallest group. Incorrect choices: A: Group Alpha - 1/2 is larger than 1/3 and 1/6, making it larger than Group Beta and Group Gamma. B: Group Beta - 1/3 is larger than 1/6 but smaller than 1/2, making it larger than Group Gamma. D: Group Delta - This is not a valid choice in the question, so it is incorrect.

Question 3 of 5

A store offers a 15% discount on all items. If an item costs $100, what is the price after the discount?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Step-by-step rationale: 1. Start with the original price: $100 2. Calculate the discount amount: 15% of $100 = $15 3. Subtract the discount from the original price: $100 - $15 = $85 4. Therefore, the price after the 15% discount is $85. Summary of incorrect choices: A. $90: Incorrect, as this is the original price minus a 10% discount. C. $80: Incorrect, as this is the original price minus a 20% discount. D. $75: Incorrect, as this is not the correct calculation for a 15% discount.

Question 4 of 5

Veronica has to create the holiday schedule for the neonatal unit at her hospital. She knows that 35% of the staff members will not be available because they are taking vacation days during the holiday. Of the remaining staff members who will be available, only 20% are certified to work in the neonatal unit. What percentage of the total staff is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the percentage of the total staff that is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday, we need to multiply the percentages of staff available and certified. First, calculate the percentage of staff available: 100% - 35% (staff on vacation) = 65% available. Then, calculate the percentage of staff certified among those available: 65% (staff available) * 20% (certified) = 13%. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 0.13, representing 13% of the total staff that is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the calculated percentage.

Question 5 of 5

What percentage of the staff is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday if 35% are on vacation and 20% of the remainder are certified?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the percentage of staff certified and available during the holiday, we first calculate the remaining staff after 35% are on vacation (100% - 35% = 65%). Then, 20% of the remaining 65% are certified (20% of 65% = 0.20 * 65% = 13%). Therefore, the percentage of staff certified and available is 13% (0.13), which corresponds to choice B. However, the question asks for the percentage, not the decimal representation. To convert 0.13 to a percentage, we multiply by 100, resulting in 13%. Therefore, the correct answer is A (0.13 expressed as a percentage is 13%). Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not match the calculated percentage.
