Q #1: A baker is using a cookie recipe that call for 3 ¼ cups of flour to yield 30 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 16 cookies using the same recipe?
A. 1 11/15 cups
B. 5 8/15 cups
C. 10 13/15 cups
D. 3 ¾ cups
Answer Explanation
Explanation
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour, which requires the concept of proportions.
If we let x to represent the number of cups of flour to make 16 cookies. Then
Solve the value of x by cross-multiplying
Convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication
The baker needs 26/15 cups of flour needed to make 16 cookies. This is equal to 1 11/15 cups.

Q #3: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below? (left|3x-7 ight|-13=2)
A. x = 21/3, x=22/3
B. x = 7/3, x=9/3
C. x = 15/2, x=9/3
D. x = 22/3, x=-8/3
Answer Explanation
-
Add 13 to both sides to isolate the absolute value term, resulting in ( left|3x-7 ight|= 15)
-
Consider two cases:
- When (+(3x-7)) is positive, solve for x to get (3x = 15 + 7) then (3x=22) (finally x=frac{22}{3})
- When (-(3x-7)) is negative (but the absolute value makes it positive). Solve for x to get (-3x = 15 - 7) then (-3x=8) (finally x=- frac{8}{3})
So, there are two possible solutions: (x=frac{22}{3} or x=- frac{8}{3})

Q #4: A pharmaceutical company’s stock price was $20.33 on Monday. On Tuesday, the price went up $0.35. On Wednesday, the price decreased from Tuesday’s price by $1.05. On Thursday, the price went up $0.95 from Wednesday’s price. Which of the following was the final price on Thursday?
A. $20.68
B. $19.63
C. $20.63
D. $20.58
Answer Explanation
Thursday’s stock price is found by determining the price of the stock on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Stock price on Monday= $20.33
Stock price on Tuesday= $(20.33+0.35)=$20.68
Stock price on Wednesday =$(20.68-1.05)=$19.63
Stock price on Thursday = $(19.63+0.95)=$20.58
Therefore, the price of the stock on Thursday was $20.58

Q #8: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below. (|2x - 4| - 10 = 2)
A. x=4 or x=-8
B. x=-4 or x=8
C. x=-2 or x=1
D. x=-3 or x=5
Answer Explanation
Explanation:
We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
If
, a>0, then u=a or u=-aIn this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes
Solving for x
The second condition becomes
Solving for x
Then, the value of x is -4 or 8.
