Which of the following is the appropriate unit of a measure to express the weight of a pen?
A. Liter
B. Milliliter
C. Gram
D. Kilogram
Although we can measure the mass of the pen in kilogram, the unit is quite large and is not appropriate for measuring small objects. Liter and milliliter are units of measuring volume. Thus, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a pen.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is C.

Q #1: The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that the slope of a wheelchair ramp be no greater than 1:12. Which of the following is the minimum length of a ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 5.2 feet above the sidewalk?
A. 52 feet
B. 148 feet
C. 32.2 feet
D. 62.4 feet
Answer Explanation
In this problem slope represents the change in height above sidewalk to change in length of the ramp.
From the definition of slope
Letting x to be the minimum length of the ramp, then
Substituting with the known value of slope
Cross-multiply to find the value of x
Thus, the minimum length of the ramp needed is 62.4 feet to access to a door that is 5.2 feet above the sidewalk.

Q #4: A plastic bucket containing 4/5 gallons of water is 3/4 full. How many gallons of water is in one fully filled bucket?
A. 1 1/15
B. 2 4/15
C. 9/15
D. 11/15
Answer Explanation
Given:
- A plastic bucket containing 4/5 gallons of water is 3/4 full.
To find:
- How many gallons of water is in one fully filled bucket?
Let's use the proportion formula to solve this:
If 3/4 of the bucket is 4/5 gallons, then 1 full bucket (or 4/4 of the bucket) will contain how many gallons?
\(\frac{3}{4}\) of the bucket = \(\frac{4}{5}\) gallons \(\frac{4}{3}\) of the bucket = \(\frac{5}{4}\) gallons \(\frac{4}{4}\) of the bucket=\(?\) gallons
\(\frac{4}{4}\) of the bucket = x gallons
Cross multiplying: x = \(\frac{4}{4}*\frac{4}{5}\ *\ \frac{4}{3}x = \frac{4}{5}*\frac{4}{3} = x\)
\(x\ =\ \frac{16}{15}\)
Thus, a fully filled bucket contains \(\frac{16}{15}\ =\ 1\frac{1}{15}\) gallons of water. Therefore, the correct choice is:
Choice A: 1 1/15

Q #7: The length of a rectangular room is 9 feet greater than its width. Which of the following equations represents the area (A) of the room?
A. A=9x
B. A=2x+2(x+9)
C. A=x(x+9)
D. A=x+(x+9)
Answer Explanation
we are asked to find the area of the room from the given information.
The first step is to find equation relating the length of the room to its width. If we let the width of the room to be x. Then,
Width of the rectangle= x
Length of rectangle = (x+9)
Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width = (x+9)*x
A=x(x+9)
Therefore, the area of the rectangular room is x(x+9).

A. 87
B. 78
C. 90
