A. 87
B. 78
C. 90
D. 84
Answer Explanation
The mean of a data set is the total scores divided by the number of tests.
Total test scores =90+87+74+ 84+93+76=504
Number of tests =6 Mean test score =506/6=84
The mean test score is 84

Q #7: There are 900 students enrolled in four allied health programs at a local community college. The percent students in each program are displayed in the pie chart. Which of the following is the number of students enrolled in the Radiologic Technology program?
A. 162
B. 171
C. 378
D. 189
Answer Explanation
We use the percentages and number of students to find the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program as in the pie chart. The total percent of the whole piec chart sums to 100%.
If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the Radiologic Technology program, we can set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator.
\(\frac{x}{21\%}\ =\ \frac{900}{100\%} \)
Find the value of x by cross-products
\(x\ *\ 100\%\ =\ 900\ students * 21\%\)
Divide both sides of the equation by 100%
\(x= \frac{900\ students\ *\ 21\%}{100\%}\ =\ 189\ students\)
Thus, 189 students out of 900 students will enroll for a respiratory care program.

Q #8: 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})
