Q #1: Which of the following relationships represents a no correlation between two variables?
A. As a student’s class attendance decreases, the student’s overall grade remains the same
B. As the number of hours a person exercises decreases, the weight of that person increases
C. As the number of miles driven increases, the amount of the gasoline in the tank decreases
D. As the amount of water plant receives increases, the growth rate of the plant increase.
Answer Explanation
Correlation of two variables falls into:
Positive correlation: an increase in one variable causes another variable to increase
Negative correlation: an increase in one variable causes another one to decrease
No correlation: a change in one variable does not cause any response in another variable.
From the given choices
Option a is no correlation
Option b is a negative correlation
Option c is a negative correlation
Option d is a positive correlation
Thus, the correct statement is a.

Q #2: 3(x-2)=12 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
A. 6
B. -2
C. -4
D. 2
Answer Explanation
: In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:
The first step is to divide both sides by 3
Add 2 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation
x-2+2=4+2
x = 6
Thus, the value of x is 6.

Q #3: 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.
