Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 6060 miles per hour.

  1. Identify the quantities and operation: Read the numbers, units, model, table, or diagram carefully and identify what the problem asks you to find.
  2. Use a math strategy: Divide distance by time: 180 divided by 3 equals 60 miles per hour.
  3. Check the result: Compare the result with the choices and check whether it is reasonable. The correct answer is 6060 miles per hour.

Divide distance by time: 180 divided by 3 equals 60 miles per hour.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

A student has 42andmustsave42 and must save6. Each notebook costs $4. What inequality represents the greatest number n of notebooks the student can buy?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 4n+6leq424n+6leq42.

  1. Identify the quantities and operation: Read the numbers, units, model, table, or diagram carefully and identify what the problem asks you to find.
  2. Use a math strategy: The notebook cost plus the required savings cannot exceed 42, so 4n + 6 is less than or equal to 42.
  3. Check the result: Compare the result with the choices and check whether it is reasonable. The correct answer is 4n+6leq424n+6leq42.

The notebook cost plus the required savings cannot exceed 42, so 4n + 6 is less than or equal to 42.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A ramp rises 5 feet over a horizontal distance of 12 feet. What is the ramp length to the nearest foot?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 1313 feet.

  1. Identify the quantities and operation: Read the numbers, units, model, table, or diagram carefully and identify what the problem asks you to find.
  2. Use a math strategy: The ramp is the hypotenuse: the square root of (5 squared + 12 squared) is the square root of 169, or 13 feet.
  3. Check the result: Compare the result with the choices and check whether it is reasonable. The correct answer is 1313 feet.

The ramp is the hypotenuse: the square root of (5 squared + 12 squared) is the square root of 169, or 13 feet.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

A streaming service charges 8permonthplusaone−time8 per month plus a one-time12 fee. Which equation gives the cost C after m months?
