Question 1

The following story situations model $ 12\div 3$:

I) Jack has 12 cookies, which he wants to share equally between himself and two friends. How many cookies does each person get?

II) Trent has 12 cookies, which he wants to put into bags of 3 cookies each. How many bags can he make?

III) Cicely has $12. Cookies cost $3 each. How many cookies can she buy?

Which of these questions illustrate the same model of division, either partitive (partioning) or measurement (quotative)?

A	I and II
B	I and III
C	II and III Hint: Problem I is partitive (or partitioning or sharing) -- we put 12 objects into 3 groups. Problems II and III are quotative (or measurement) -- we put 12 objects in groups of 3.
D	All three problems model the same meaning of division

Question 1 Explanation:

Topic: Understand models of operations on numbers (Objective 0019).

Question 2

If two fair coins are flipped, what is the probability that one will come up heads and the other tails?

A	$ \large \dfrac{1}{4}$ Hint: Think of the coins as a penny and a dime, and list all possibilities.
B	$ \large \dfrac{1}{3} $ Hint: This is a very common misconception. There are three possible outcomes -- both heads, both tails, and one of each -- but they are not equally likely. Think of the coins as a penny and a dime, and list all possibilities.
C	$ \large \dfrac{1}{2}$ Hint: The possibilities are HH, HT, TH, TT, and all are equally likely. Two of the four have one of each coin, so the probability is 2/4=1/2.
D	$ \large \dfrac{3}{4}$ Hint: Think of the coins as a penny and a dime, and list all possibilities.

Question 2 Explanation:

Topic: Calculate the probabilities of simple and compound events and of independent and dependent events (Objective 0026).

Question 3

Solve for x: $\large 4-\dfrac{2}{3}x=2x$

A	$ \large x=3$ Hint: Try plugging x=3 into the equation.
B	$ \large x=-3$ Hint: Left side is positive, right side is negative when you plug this in for x.
C	$ \large x=\dfrac{3}{2}$ Hint: One way to solve: $4=\dfrac{2}{3}x+2x$ $=\dfrac{8}{3}x$.$x=\dfrac{3 \times 4}{8}=\dfrac{3}{2}$. Another way is to just plug x=3/2 into the equation and see that each side equals 3 -- on a multiple choice test, you almost never have to actually solve for x.
D	$ \large x=-\dfrac{3}{2}$ Hint: Left side is positive, right side is negative when you plug this in for x.

Question 3 Explanation:

Topic: Solve linear equations (Objective 0020).

Question 5

In the triangle below, $\overline{AC}\cong \overline{AD}\cong \overline{DE}$ and $m\angle CAD=100{}^\circ $. What is $m\angle DAE$?

A	$ \large 20{}^\circ $ Hint: Angles ACD and ADC are congruent since they are base angles of an isosceles triangle. Since the angles of a triangle sum to 180, they sum to 80, and they are 40 deg each. Thus angle ADE is 140 deg, since it makes a straight line with angle ADC. Angles DAE and DEA are base angles of an isosceles triangle and thus congruent-- they sum to 40 deg, so are 20 deg each.
B	$ \large 25{}^\circ $ Hint: If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then it's isosceles, and the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.
C	$ \large 30{}^\circ $ Hint: If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then it's isosceles, and the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.
D	$ \large 40{}^\circ $ Hint: Make sure you're calculating the correct angle.

Question 5 Explanation:

Topic: Classify and analyze polygons using attributes of sides and angles, including real-world applications. (Objective 0024).

Question 6

Which of the numbers below is the decimal equivalent of $ \dfrac{3}{8}?$

A	0.38 Hint: If you are just writing the numerator next to the denominator then your technique is way off, but by coincidence your answer is close; try with 2/3 and 0.23 is nowhere near correct.
B	0.125 Hint: This is 1/8, not 3/8.
C	0.375
D	0.83 Hint: 3/8 is less than a half, and 0.83 is more than a half, so they can't be equal.

Question 6 Explanation:

Topic: Converting between fractions and decimals (Objective 0017)

Question 7

The letters A, and B represent digits (possibly equal) in the ten digit number x=1,438,152,A3B. For which values of A and B is x divisible by 12, but not by 9?

A	$ \large A = 0, B = 4$ Hint: Digits add to 31, so not divisible by 3, so not divisible by 12.
B	$ \large A = 7, B = 2$ Hint: Digits add to 36, so divisible by 9.
C	$ \large A = 0, B = 6$ Hint: Digits add to 33, divisible by 3, not 9. Last digits are 36, so divisible by 4, and hence by 12.
D	$ \large A = 4, B = 8$ Hint: Digits add to 39, divisible by 3, not 9. Last digits are 38, so not divisible by 4, so not divisible by 12.

Question 7 Explanation:

Topic: Demonstrate knowledge of divisibility rules (Objective 0018).

Question 8

Use the four figures below to answer the question that follows:

How many of the figures pictured above have at least one line of reflective symmetry?

Question 9

Which of the following sets of polygons can be assembled to form a pentagonal pyramid?

A	2 pentagons and 5 rectangles. Hint: These can be assembled to form a pentagonal prism, not a pentagonal pyramid.
B	1 square and 5 equilateral triangles. Hint: You need a pentagon for a pentagonal pyramid.
C	1 pentagon and 5 isosceles triangles.
D	1 pentagon and 10 isosceles triangles.

Question 9 Explanation:

Topic:Classify and analyze three-dimensional figures using attributes of faces, edges, and vertices (Objective 0024).

Question 10

In each expression below N represents a negative integer. Which expression could have a negative value?

A	$ \large {{N}^{2}}$ Hint: Squaring always gives a non-negative value.
B	$ \large 6-N$ Hint: A story problem for this expression is, if it was 6 degrees out at noon and N degrees out at sunrise, by how many degrees did the temperature rise by noon? Since N is negative, the answer to this question has to be positive, and more than 6.
C	$ \large -N$ Hint: If N is negative, then -N is positive
D	$ \large 6+N$ Hint: For example, if $N=-10$, then $6+N = -4$

Question 10 Explanation:

If you are stuck on a question like this, try a few examples to eliminate some choices and to help you understand what the question means. Topic: Characteristics of integers (Objective 0016).

Question 11

There are 15 students for every teacher. Let t represent the number of teachers and let s represent the number of students. Which of the following equations is correct?

A	$ \large t=s+15$ Hint: When there are 2 teachers, how many students should there be? Do those values satisfy this equation?
B	$ \large s=t+15$ Hint: When there are 2 teachers, how many students should there be? Do those values satisfy this equation?
C	$ \large t=15s$ Hint: This is a really easy mistake to make, which comes from transcribing directly from English, "1 teachers equals 15 students." To see that it's wrong, plug in s=2; do you really need 30 teachers for 2 students? To avoid this mistake, insert the word "number," "Number of teachers equals 15 times number of students" is more clearly problematic.
D	$ \large s=15t$

Question 11 Explanation:

Topic: Select the linear equation that best models a real-world situation (Objective 0022).

Question 12

Which of the lists below is in order from least to greatest value?

A	$ \large -0.044,\quad -0.04,\quad 0.04,\quad 0.044$ Hint: These are easier to compare if you add trailing zeroes (this is finding a common denominator) -- all in thousandths, -0.044, -0.040,0 .040, 0.044. The middle two numbers, -0.040 and 0.040 can be modeled as owing 4 cents and having 4 cents. The outer two numbers are owing or having a bit more.
B	$ \large -0.04,\quad -0.044,\quad 0.044,\quad 0.04$ Hint: 0.04=0.040, which is less than 0.044.
C	$ \large -0.04,\quad -0.044,\quad 0.04,\quad 0.044$ Hint: -0.04=-0.040, which is greater than $-0.044$.
D	$ \large -0.044,\quad -0.04,\quad 0.044,\quad 0.04$ Hint: 0.04=0.040, which is less than 0.044.

Question 12 Explanation:

Topic: Ordering decimals and integers (Objective 0017).

Question 13

What fraction of the area of the picture below is shaded?

$q21 fraction area$

A	$ \large \dfrac{17}{24}$ Hint: You might try adding segments so each quadrant is divided into 6 pieces with equal area -- there will be 24 regions, not all the same shape, but all the same area, with 17 of them shaded (for the top left quarter, you could also first change the diagonal line to a horizontal or vertical line that divides the square in two equal pieces and shade one) .
B	$ \large \dfrac{3}{4}$ Hint: Be sure you're taking into account the different sizes of the pieces.
C	$ \large \dfrac{2}{3}$ Hint: The bottom half of the picture is 2/3 shaded, and the top half is more than 2/3 shaded, so this answer is too small.
D	$ \large \dfrac{17}{6} $ Hint: This answer is bigger than 1, so doesn't make any sense. Be sure you are using the whole picture, not one quadrant, as the unit.

Question 13 Explanation:

Topic: Models of Fractions (Objective 0017)

Question 15

The letters A, B, and C represent digits (possibly equal) in the twelve digit number x=111,111,111,ABC. For which values of A, B, and C is x divisible by 40?

A	$ \large A = 3, B = 2, C=0$ Hint: Note that it doesn't matter what the first 9 digits are, since 1000 is divisible by 40, so DEF,GHI,JKL,000 is divisible by 40 - we need to check the last 3.
B	$ \large A = 0, B = 0, C=4$ Hint: Not divisible by 10, since it doesn't end in 0.
C	$ \large A = 4, B = 2, C=0$ Hint: Divisible by 10 and by 4, but not by 40, as it's not divisible by 8. Look at 40 as the product of powers of primes -- 8 x 5, and check each. To check 8, either check whether 420 is divisible by 8, or take ones place + twice tens place + 4 * hundreds place = 18, which is not divisible by 8.
D	$ \large A =1, B=0, C=0$ Hint: Divisible by 10 and by 4, but not by 40, as it's not divisible by 8. Look at 40 as the product of powers of primes -- 8 x 5, and check each. To check 8, either check whether 100 is divisible by 8, or take ones place + twice tens place + 4 * hundreds place = 4, which is not divisible by 8.

II.

III.

IV.

A	I and IV only. Hint: There are vertical lines that go through 2 points in IV .
B	I and III only. Hint: Even though III is not continuous, it's still a function (assuming that vertical lines between the "steps" do not go through 2 points).
C	II and III only. Hint: Learn about the vertical line test.
D	I, II, and IV only. Hint: There are vertical lines that go through 2 points in II.

Question 16 Explanation:

Understand the definition of function and various representations of functions (e.g., input/output machines, tables, graphs, mapping diagrams, formulas). (Objective 0021).

Question 17

On a map the distance from Boston to Detroit is 6 cm, and these two cities are 702 miles away from each other. Assuming the scale of the map is the same throughout, which answer below is closest to the distance between Boston and San Francisco on the map, given that they are 2,708 miles away from each other?

A	21 cm Hint: How many miles would correspond to 24 cm on the map? Try adjusting from there.
B	22 cm Hint: How many miles would correspond to 24 cm on the map? Try adjusting from there.
C	23 cm Hint: One way to solve this without a calculator is to note that 4 groups of 6 cm is 2808 miles, which is 100 miles too much. Then 100 miles would be about 1/7 th of 6 cm, or about 1 cm less than 24 cm.
D	24 cm Hint: 4 groups of 6 cm is over 2800 miles on the map, which is too much.

Question 17 Explanation:

Topic: Apply proportional thinking to estimate quantities in real world situations (Objective 0019).

1) Pick a whole number

2) Double your number.

3) Add 20 to the above result.

4) Multiply the above by 5

5) Subtract 100

6) Divide by 10

The result is always the number that you started with! Suppose you start by picking N. Which of the equations below best demonstrates that the result after Step 6 is also N?

A	$ \large N2+205-100\div 10=N$ Hint: Use parentheses or else order of operations is off.
B	$ \large \left( \left( 2N+20 \right)5-100 \right)\div 10=N$
C	$ \large \left( N+N+20 \right)*5-100\div 10=N$ Hint: With this answer you would subtract 10, instead of subtracting 100 and then dividing by 10.
D	$ \large \left( \left( \left( N\div 10 \right)-100 \right)5+20 \right)2=N$ Hint: This answer is quite backwards.

Question 18 Explanation:

Topic: Recognize and apply the concepts of variable, function, equality, and equation to express relationships algebraically (Objective 0020).

Question 19

Which of the lines depicted below is a graph of $ \large y=2x-5$?

A	a Hint: The slope of line a is negative.
B	b Hint: Wrong slope and wrong intercept.

A	\( \large 20{}^\circ \) Hint: Angles ACD and ADC are congruent since they are base angles of an isosceles triangle.

B	\( \large s=t+15\) Hint: When there are 2 teachers, how many students should there be? Do those values satisfy this equation?
C	\( \large t=15s\) Hint: This is a really easy mistake to make, which comes from transcribing directly from English, "1 teachers equals 15 students." To see that it's wrong, plug in s=2; do you really need 30 teachers for 2 students? To avoid this mistake, insert the word "number," "Number of teachers equals 15 times number of students" is more clearly problematic.
D	\( \large s=15t\)

A	\( \large -0.044,\quad -0.04,\quad 0.04,\quad 0.044\) Hint: These are easier to compare if you add trailing zeroes (this is finding a common denominator) -- all in thousandths, -0.044, -0.040,0 .040, 0.044.
