A taxicab fare costs x dollars for the first quarter of a mile and ¼x dollars for each quarter of a mile after that. How much will the total cost be for a 2½ mile ride?

  1. 3x
  2. 13/4x
  3. 10x
  4. 5/4x
  5. 2.5x

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

2½ miles divided by 1/4 is ten quarter miles. Since the first quarter mile costs x amount, the other nine quarter miles cost 1/4 x, so 9 × 1/4x = 9/4 x.x + 9/4x = 4/4x + 9/4x = 13/4x.



Which of the following measures could form the sides of a triangle?

I) 3, 3, 5
II) 6, 6, 12
III) 1, 2, 3

  1. I only
  2. II only
  3. III only
  4. I and II only
  5. II and III only

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The sum of the measures of the two shorter sides of a triangle must be greater than the longest side. Since 3 + 3 > 5, statement I works. Since 6 + 6 = 12 and 1 + 2 = 3, they do not form the sides of the triangle. The answer is statement I only.



Scott’s average (arithmetic mean) golf score on his first four rounds was 78. What score does he need on his fifth round to drop his average score by 2 points?

  1. 68
  2. 72
  3. 78
  4. 88
  5. 312

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

If the average of four rounds is 78, then the total points scored is 78 × 4 = 312. If his score were to drop 2 points that means his new average would be 76. A 76 average for five rounds is a total of 380 points. The difference between these two point totals is 380 – 312 = 68. He needs a score of 68 on the fifth round.



Celeste worked for h hours each day for d consecutive days. If she earns $9.50 per hour, what is the total amount she earned?

  1. 9.50/d + h
  2. 9.50 + d + h
  3. 9.50 + dh
  4. 9.50h + d
  5. 9.50dh

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

Suppose Celeste worked for 8 hours each day for 5 consecutive days. Her total pay would be found by finding her total hours (8 × 5 = 40) and then multiplying 40 by her pay per hour ($9.50). Since you are only multiplying to solve the problem, the expression is 9.50 × d × h or 9.50dh.



A certain jacket was marked down 20% the first week and another 20% the next week. What percent of the regular price was the final cost of the jacket after the two markdowns?

  1. 30%
  2. 36%
  3. 40%
  4. 60%
  5. 64%

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

To make this problem easier, assume the initial cost of the jacket was $100. The first markdown of 20% would save you $20, bringing the cost of the jacket to $80. For the second markdown, you should be finding 20% of
$80, the new cost of the jacket. 20% of 80 = 0.20 × 80 = 16. If you save $16 the second time, the final cost of the jacket is 80 – 16 = $64. Since the initial cost was $100, $64 is 64% of this price.
