A patient drives 19 miles one way to a medical facility for treatment. How far does the patient drive round-trip in 22 days of treatment?
A. 1,254 miles
B. 1,672 miles
C. 418 miles
D. 836 miles
Round trip means to and from, which is twice the distance from home to a medical facility.
In one day, the round trip=19+19=38 miles
So, in 22 days, the round trip=38*22=836 miles.
The patient will cover 836 miles in 22 days.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

Q #1: A teacher has 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?
A. Pie graph
B. Bar graph
C. Histogram
D. Scatterplot
Answer Explanation
The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.
Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week. Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.
As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous data. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.

Q #2: The width of a rectangle is 4 inches (in) and the area of the rectangle is 32 in2. Which of the following is the length of the rectangle?
A. 8 in
B. 28 in
C. 36 in
D. 128 in
Answer Explanation
We need to find the length of the rectangle from the given area and width of the rectangle. Let L be length if the rectangle. Then,
Area of rectangle=Length*width
Substituting area=32 in2 and w=4 inches
32=L*4
32=4L
Divide both sides by 4
32/4=4L/4
8=L
The length of the rectangle is 8 inches.

Q #3: An athlete can run 6 miles in 51 minutes. At this rate, how many miles could the athlete run in 90 minutes?
A. 15 miles
B. 11.5 miles
C. 45 miles
D. 10.6 miles
Answer Explanation
Here, the athlete runs 6 miles in 51 minutes, which can be expressed as:
Now, in 90 minutes, the athlete will cover about
Therefore, the athlete runs about 10.6 miles in 90 minutes.

Q #4: Pat deposits $600 in a savings account at a simple interest rate 6% per year for 5 years. How much money will Pat have earned in interest at the end of 5 years?
A. $360
B. $180
C. $95
D. $36
Answer Explanation
In the simple interest, we utilize the following formula to find the simple interest after a period of time in years.
I=P*r*t
I is the interest
P=Principal or initial deposit
r=rate
t=time in years
From the given problem, P=$600, r=6%=6/100=0.06, t=5 years. Then
I=$600*0.06*5=$180
After 5 years, Pat will earn an interest of $180.

Q #5: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below? 4x- 3- 5x=24
A. -27
B. -6
C. 3
D. 21
Answer Explanation
to solve for x, we order like terms together and proceed as follows:
4x-3-5x=24
Add 3 to both sides of the equation
4x-3+3-5x=24+3
4x+3-3-5x=27
4x-5x=27
-x=27
Divide both sides by -1
-x/-1=27/-1
x= -27
Thus, the unknown value of x is -27

Q #6: A garden in the shape of a square has an area of 13 square feet. Each side of the garden has a length of √13 feet. Which of the following is the best decimal approximation for the length of each side?
A. 4.5 feet
B. 6.5 feet
C. 3.6 feet
D. 2.6 feet
Answer Explanation
In this problem, to find one side of the square garden, we use the calculator to find the square root of 13. Thus
Thus, the approximate side of a square garden is about 3.6 ft

Q #7: A lab scale weighs 3 pounds, 5 ounces. Which of the following is the scale's weight in ounces(oz)?
A. 29 oz
B. 41 oz
C. 35 oz
D. 53 oz
Answer Explanation
We convert the given weight in pounds to ounces and find total weight. 1 pound=16 ounces, which we interpret as
Or
Use the second option to convert pounds to ounces
Now, we can ounces to ounces as: 48 oz + 5 oz= 53 oz
Therefore, 3 pounds, 5 ounces is equal to 53 oz

Q #8: For a school's annual budget, the total amount of money spent on supplies (s) and textbooks (t) cannot exceed $12,000. Which of the following inequalities represents this scenario?
A. s + t >= $12,000
B. s + t > $12,000
C. s + t < $12,000
D. s + t <= $12,000
Answer Explanation
We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.
Money spent on supplies=s
Money spent on textbooks=t
Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks
Total money spent = s+t
But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,
s+t < $12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.Therefore, the required inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

Q #9: Using the numbers below, which of the following is the greatest? 4/3, 27/20, 1.369, 1.357
A. 1.369
B. 4/3
C. 27/20
D. 1.357
Answer Explanation
to do a comparison of the given data set, we convert the fraction numbers into the approximate decimals.
4/3=1.333
2720=1.35
Now, we have 1.333, 1.35, 1.369, 1.357. These numbers are arranged from the smallest to the largest number, we look at the number in the second decimal place value
1.333 the number in second decimal place value is 3
1.35 the number in third decimal place value is 5
1.369 the number in third decimal place value is 6
1.357 the number in third decimal place value is 5
However, 1.35 and 1.357 have 5 in the second-place vale. We use the ird place value to compare the two number:
1.35 is same as 1.350 and the number in the third-place value is 0
1.357 the number in the third-place value is 7
Now, 0 is less than 7, and thus 1.35 is less than 1.357
Overall, 3 is less than 5, and 5 less than 6 and the provided numbers can be arranged from the smallest to the largest as:
1.333, 1.35, 1.357, 1.369
Thus, the corresponding given numbers organized from the smallest to the largest become:
4/3, 27/20, 1.357, 1.369
The greatest value is 1.369
