How many feet are in 9 yards?
A. 45 ft
B. 18 ft
C. 36 ft
D. 27 ft
The interconversion of yards to feet utilizes the relationship 1 yard =3 feet. Then, 9 yards to ft becomes
t
There, 9 yards is equal to 27 ft.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

Q #1: If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is six less than two times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?
A. 2x-6
B. 6-2x
C. 6x-2
D. 3x-4
Answer Explanation
To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.
First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is two times width. Mathematically, this means
Length=2*width=2*x=2x
Now, the length is 6 less than 2 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:
Length =2x-6
Thus, the length of the rectangle is 2x-6.

Q #2: Which of the following percentages is equivalent to the fraction below? 3/4
A. 57%
B. 7.5%
C. 65%
D. 75%
Answer Explanation
to convert fraction to percent, multiply the fraction with 100%. Therefore, the percent equivalent of 3/4 is
3/4*100%=75%
Thus, 3/4 is equal to 75%.

Q #3: An athlete runs 5 miles in 25 minutes and then changes their pace to run the next 3 miles in 15 minutes. Overall, what is the average time in minutes it takes the athlete to run 1 mile?
A. 7 minutes
B. 5 minutes
C. 6.5 minutes
D. 8.5 minutes
Answer Explanation
to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile, find total time divided by total distance covered in the two runs.
Total distance=5+3=8 miles
Total time=25+15=40 minutes
We now know that the athlete runs 8 miles in 40 minutes, so the time the athlete will run in 1 mile will be:
In 5 minutes, the athlete runs 1 mile.

Q #4: The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the student’s exam scores and the students’ heights. Which of the following types of correlation is shown on the scatter plot?
A. Positive
B. Positive and negative
C. Negative
D. No correlation
Answer Explanation
correlations fall into positive, negative, and no correlation. A positive correlation shows that an increase in one variable increase results in an increase on the other variable increases as shown.
A negative correlation scatter plot shows that an increase in one variable results in a decrease on the other one.
The no-correlation scatter plot demonstrates that there is no response between variables. A change in one variable has no effect on the other variable.
Looking at the provided scatter plot, the heights of the students does not have any relationship on the students’ scores. Thus, the type of correlation is no correlation.

Q #5: How may milliliters are there in 3.2 liters?
A. 0.32
B. 32
C. 3200
D. 320
Answer Explanation
We know that 1 L =1000 mL, which we use to convert between the two units. The conversion fractions of interconverting are:
And
Since we want to end up with millimeters, the second conversion is used in converting L to mL as:
Thus, 3.2 L is equivalent to 3200 mL.

Q #6: 3(2x+5)=11x+5 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is correct?
A. 1
B. 2
C. -1
D. -2
Answer Explanation
We follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.
3(2x+5)=11x+5
Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 3
(3*2x)+(3*5)=11x+5
6x+15=11x+5
Subtract 15 from both sides
6x+15-15=11x+5-15
6x=11x-10
Subtract 11x on both sides
6x-11x=11x-11x-10
-5x=-10
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5=-10/-5
x= 2
Thus, the value of unknown value of x is 2.

Q #7: When the weights of the newborn babies are graphed, the distribution of weights is symmetric with the majority of weights centered around a single peak. Which of the following describes the shape of this distribution?
A. Uniform
B. Bimodal
C. Bell-shaped
D. Skewed right
Answer Explanation
The distribution of the weights of the newborn babies is symmetric meaning the mean, mode, and median are all equal. Thus, the bell-shape curve describes this kind of distribution of weights

Q #8: A student performs the following estimations. 35+192 230 258+350 610 947+1032 1980 Based on these estimations, which of the following is the student’s estimate of 694+7618?
A. 8320
B. 8500
C. 8300
D. 8310
Answer Explanation
Here we need to find the actual values of the additions and see the trend the student will use to estimate the given problem. The exact sum is as follows
35+192=227
258+350=608
947+1032=1979
From the above calculations, it is evident that the student rounds up or down the ones place values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 694+7618.
694+7618=8312
We can approximate 8312 based on the provided choices is 8310.

Q #9: One gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. If the maintenance department needs 230 gallons of solution to clean all of the floors, how much ammonia is needed?
A. 1380 gallons
B. 6900 gallons
C. 1380 oz
D. 1400 oz
Answer Explanation
from the given data, one gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. The mathematical expression of this statement can be expressed in two ways:
Or
The question requires we find the amount of ammonia needed to make 230 gallons of the solution. So, we use the second option and proceed as follows:
From the above equation, gallon of solution will cancel, and oz of ammonia is left.
Therefore, the solution will require 1380 oz of ammonia.
