If the trend below continues, which of the following is the best estimate of the average price of a home in 2016?
A. $155,000
B. $120,000
C. $125,000
D. $140,000
Looking at the given trend, it is observed that the price increases with years. From 2008 to 2012, the price is fairly constant but we expect it to be more than $130,000 in the year 2016. The expected price in 2016 is $140,000.

Q #1: 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
Answer Explanation
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.

Q #2: To rent tablecloth from a rental vendor, there is an initial charge of $40. There is an additional charge of $5 per circular tablecloth (c) and $3.50 per rectangular tablecloth (r). Which of the following represents the total cost (T) to rent tablecloths?
A. 5r + 3.5c - 40 = T
B. 5c + 3.5r + 40 = T
C. 5c + 3.5r - 40 = T
D. 5r + 3.5c + 40 = T
Answer Explanation
From the given scenario:
Initial charge is $40
Additional charge per circular cloth=$5c
Additional charge per rectangular cloth=$3.50r
Total cost = additional charge per circular rectangular cloths + Initial charge
Total cost, T = 5c + 3.5r + 40

Q #3: Simplify the expression below. Which of the following is correct? \(18x^5yz\ \div\ \ 6xyz^4\)
A. \(3x^4z^3\)
B. \(3x^4yz^3\)
C. \(\frac{(3x)^4}{z^3}\)
D. \(\frac{(3x^4)}{z^3}\)
Answer Explanation
We use the properties of exponent with the same base to solve for above expression.
Multiplication of exponents with same base, we add the exponents
Division of exponents with same base, we subtract the exponents
Using these two properties, we can solve the expression:
Now we use the following properties:
y0 =1, and
, thus
