20 Random Questions

Hints will display for most wrong answers; explanations for most right answers. You can attempt a question multiple times; it will only be scored correct if you get it right the first time.

I used the official objectives and sample test to construct these questions, but cannot promise that they accurately reflect what’s on the real test. Some of the sample questions were more convoluted than I could bear to write. See terms of use.

II.

III.

IV.

A	I and IV only. Hint: There are vertical lines that go through 2 points in IV .

A	$ \large8$ Hint: Don't forget 1 and 80.

Question 4

What is the probability that two randomly selected people were born on the same day of the week? Assume that all days are equally probable.

A	$ \large \dfrac{1}{7}$ Hint: It doesn't matter what day the first person was born on. The probability that the second person will match is 1/7 (just designate one person the first and the other the second). Another way to look at it is that if you list the sample space of all possible pairs, e.g. (Wed, Sun), there are 49 such pairs, and 7 of them are repeats of the same day, and 7/49=1/7.
B	$ \large \dfrac{1}{14}$ Hint: What would be the sample space here? Ie, how would you list 14 things that you pick one from?

Which of the following equations could also represent A for the values shown?

A	$ \large A(n)=n+4$ Hint: For a question like this, you don't have to find the equation yourself, you can just try plugging the function machine inputs into the equation, and see if any values come out wrong. With this equation n= -1 would output 3, not 0 as the machine does.
B	$ \large A(n)=n+2$ Hint: For a question like this, you don't have to find the equation yourself, you can just try plugging the function machine inputs into the equation, and see if any values come out wrong. With this equation n= 2 would output 4, not 6 as the machine does.

D	$ \large A(n)=2\left( n+2 \right)$ Hint: For a question like this, you don't have to find the equation yourself, you can just try plugging the function machine inputs into the equation, and see if any values come out wrong. With this equation n= 2 would output 8, not 6 as the machine does.

Question 7 Explanation:

Question 9

Cell phone plan A charges $3 per month plus $0.10 per minute. Cell phone plan B charges $29.99 per month, with no fee for the first 400 minutes and then $0.20 for each additional minute.

Which equation can be used to solve for the number of minutes, m (with m>400) that a person would have to spend on the phone each month in order for the bills for plan A and plan B to be equal?

A	$ \large 3.10m=400+0.2m$ Hint: These are the numbers in the problem, but this equation doesn't make sense. If you don't know how to make an equation, try plugging in an easy number like m=500 minutes to see if each side equals what it should.
B	$ \large 3+0.1m=29.99+.20m$ Hint: Doesn't account for the 400 free minutes.
C	$ \large 3+0.1m=400+29.99+.20(m-400)$ Hint: Why would you add 400 minutes and $29.99? If you don't know how to make an equation, try plugging in an easy number like m=500 minutes to see if each side equals what it should.
D	$ \large 3+0.1m=29.99+.20(m-400)$ Hint: The left side is $3 plus $0.10 times the number of minutes. The right is $29.99 plus $0.20 times the number of minutes over 400.

Which of the following best describes the mathematical validity of the algorithm the student is using?

A	It is not valid. It never produces the correct answer. Hint: In the middle example,the answer is correct.
B	It is not valid. It produces the correct answer in a few special cases, but it‘s still not a valid algorithm. Hint: Note that this algorithm gives a/b divided by c/d, not a/b x c/d, but some students confuse multiplication and cross-multiplication. If a=0 or if c/d =1, division and multiplication give the same answer.
C	It is valid if the rational numbers in the multiplication problem are in lowest terms. Hint: Lowest terms is irrelevant.
D	It is valid for all rational numbers. Hint: Can't be correct as the first and last examples have the wrong answers.

B	$ \large \dfrac{502}{2149}$ Hint: This is the probability that a randomly chosen girl from the whole survey drank milk and was also surveyed in 1989-1991.
C	$ \large \dfrac{502}{837}$
D	$ \large \dfrac{1222}{2149}$ Hint: This is the probability that a randomly chosen girl from any year of the survey drank milk.

Let p represent the regular price of these t-shirt. Which of the following equations is correct?

A	$ \large 0.8p=\$8.73$ Hint: 80% of the regular price = $8.73.
B	$ \large \$8.73+0.2*\$8.73=p$ Hint: The 20% off was off of the ORIGINAL price, not off the $8.73 (a lot of people make this mistake). Plus this is the same equation as in choice c.
C	$ \large 1.2*\$8.73=p$ Hint: The 20% off was off of the ORIGINAL price, not off the $8.73 (a lot of people make this mistake). Plus this is the same equation as in choice b.

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.

C	$ \large \dfrac{6}{10}$ Hint: This is equal to 0.6, without the repeating decimal. Answer is equivalent to choice b, which is another way to tell that it's wrong.
D	$ \large \dfrac{1}{6}$ Hint: This is less than a half, and $ 0.\bar{6}$ is greater than a half.
