Practice Math TEAS TEST Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following expressions represents the sum of three times a number and eight times a different number?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the sum of three times a number and eight times a different number, we need to add 3 times the first number (3x) to 8 times the second number (8y). Therefore, the correct expression is 3x + 8y (Choice A). This choice correctly represents the operation of adding the terms. Choices B, C, and D either incorrectly combine the coefficients of x and y or use subtraction instead of addition, making them incorrect for this question.
Question 2 of 5
What is the median of the data set below: 5, -3, 10, -2, 0?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the median, first, sort the data set in ascending order: -3, -2, 0, 5, 10. The middle value is the median, which is 0 in this case. This is the correct answer (B). The other choices are incorrect because: A: 10 is the highest value, not the middle value. C: 5 is not the middle value when the data set is arranged in ascending order. D: 2 is not present in the data set, making it an invalid choice.
Question 3 of 5
A teacher asked all the students in the class which days of the week they get up after 8 a.m. Which of the following is the best way to display the frequency for each day of the week?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct way to display the frequency for each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is through a histogram. Histograms are used to display the distribution of continuous data into intervals or bins, making them ideal for showing frequency distributions. In this case, each day of the week can be represented along the x-axis, with the frequency of students getting up after 8 a.m. on the y-axis. By using a histogram, we can easily visualize and compare the frequency of waking up late on different days. Summary: - Choice A (Histogram) is correct as it effectively displays frequency distributions. - Choice B (Pie chart) is not suitable for showing frequency distributions of days of the week. - Choice C (Bar graph) could work but histograms are more specifically designed for this purpose. - Choice D (Scatter plot) is used to show relationships between two continuous variables, not frequency distributions.
Question 4 of 5
The length of a rectangle is 3 units greater than its width. Which expression correctly represents the perimeter of the rectangle?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 2W + 2(W + 3). To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all its sides. Given that the length is 3 units greater than the width, the length is represented as W + 3. So, the expression for the perimeter is 2W (for the width) + 2(W + 3) (for the length). This simplifies to 2W + 2W + 6, which further simplifies to 4W + 6, representing the correct perimeter expression. Summary: B: W + W + 3 is incorrect as it only adds the width twice and does not account for the length. C: W(W + 3) is incorrect as it represents the area of the rectangle, not the perimeter. D: 2W + 2(3W) is incorrect as it incorrectly combines the width and length terms in the expression.
Question 5 of 5
A leather recliner is on sale for 30% less than its original price. A consumer has a coupon that saves an additional 25% off of the sale price. If the consumer pays $237 for the recliner, what is the original price of the recliner to the nearest dollar?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Step 1: Let x be the original price of the recliner. Step 2: Sale price = x - 0.3x = 0.7x Step 3: Price after coupon = 0.7x - 0.25(0.7x) = 0.525x Step 4: Set up equation: 0.525x = 237 Step 5: Solve for x: x = 237 / 0.525 ≈ $451 Step 6: The original price is closest to $451, making option C incorrect. Step 7: Check why other choices are incorrect: - Option A: $316 is too low for the original price. - Option B: $431 is the calculated sale price, not the original price. - Option D: $527 is the original price based on the calculation.
