TEAS 7 Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because it accurately describes the rate of change as the snow melting by 5 centimeters every day. This statement represents a consistent decrease in the snow level over time. Choice A is incorrect as it implies a higher rate of melting than what is described. Choice C is incorrect as it describes an increase rather than a decrease. Choice D is also incorrect as it describes an increase instead of the intended decrease in snow level. Therefore, choice B is the most accurate representation of the rate of change in this scenario.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Correct Answer: B Rationale: In January, Dr. Lewis worked 20 shifts. In February, she worked 3 times as many shifts as in January (3 * 20 = 60 shifts). In March, she worked half the number of shifts she worked in February (1/2 * 60 = 30 shifts). Therefore, the equation should be shifts = (20)(3)(1/2) = 30, which accurately represents the number of shifts Dr. Lewis worked in March. Summary of other choices: A: Incorrect because it adds shifts for each month without considering the relationships between them. C: Incorrect because it multiplies January and February shifts but does not account for March being half of February. D: Incorrect because it incorrectly multiplies 3 and 1/2 without considering the total number of shifts in February.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the total amount Margery expects to spend on her vacation, we need to add up all her expenses. The airfare is $572. The hotel costs $89 per night for 5 nights, but she will receive a 10% discount after the first night, so the total hotel cost is (1 night + 4 nights * 0.9) * $89 = $400.10. She has allotted $150 for sightseeing and $250 for meals. Adding all these expenses together: $572 (airfare) + $400.10 (hotel) + $150 (sightseeing) + $250 (meals) = $1,372.10. Therefore, the total amount Margery expects to spend on her vacation is $1,372.10, which is closest to option C: $1,381.40. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total expenses based on the

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the percent increase, subtract the initial value from the final value (2219 - 1432 = 787). Then, divide the increase by the initial value and multiply by 100 to get the percentage increase [(787/1432) x 100 ≈ 55%]. Therefore, choice A (55%) is correct. Choice B (36%) is incorrect because it underestimates the actual increase. Choice C (64%) and choice D (42%) are also incorrect as they overestimate the percentage increase.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the number of male patients not overweight as children, we first find the total number of male patients by calculating 30% of 100, which equals 30. Then, we find the number of overweight men (10% of 30), which is 3. Subtracting 3 from the total number of male patients gives us the number of male patients not overweight as children, which is 27 (30 - 3 = 27). Therefore, the correct answer is C. Option A is too low, B does not account for the overweight men, and D is too high based on the calculations.
