Adding 5 to both sides gives 2x = 14 and then dividing by 2 yields x = 7. This question tests basic equation solving.
What is the sum of the fractions 1/3 and 1/4?
2/3
1/2
7/12
5/12
By finding a common denominator, 1/3 becomes 4/12 and 1/4 becomes 3/12, so their sum is 7/12. This reinforces operations with fractions.
What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 units and a height of 5 units?
25
15
50
20
The area of a triangle is calculated as 1/2 times the base times the height, which results in 25. This formula is a key concept in geometry.
Simplify the expression: 3(2x + 4).
2x + 12
5x + 12
6x + 12
6x + 4
Distributing the 3 yields 6x + 12. This demonstrates the distributive property in algebra.
Which fraction is equivalent to 4/6?
2/3
1/2
3/4
4/5
Simplifying 4/6 by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2 results in 2/3. This helps in understanding fraction equivalence.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 8 units and a width of 3 units?
26
28
24
22
The perimeter is calculated as 2 times the sum of the length and width, which gives 2*(8+3) = 22. This reinforces basic geometric formulas.
What is the probability of getting a head when flipping a fair coin?
1/3
1/2
1/4
1
Since a fair coin has two equally likely outcomes, the probability of heads is 1/2. This question reinforces the basic concept of probability.
Which of the following angles is a right angle?
120°
90°
150°
45°
A right angle measures exactly 90 degrees, making it the correct answer. Recognizing angle measures is essential in geometry.
Solve for y in the equation: 3y/4 = 9.
10
12
9
15
Multiplying both sides by 4 results in 3y = 36, and dividing by 3 gives y = 12. This applies basic algebra and fraction manipulation.
What is the value of 2^3?
9
8
10
6
Raising 2 to the power of 3 means multiplying 2 by itself three times (2×2×2), which equals 8. This tests understanding of basic exponents.
Solve the equation: 2(x + 3) = x + 15.
6
10
8
9
Expanding the equation gives 2x + 6 = x + 15. Subtracting x from both sides and then subtracting 6 results in x = 9, which is the correct solution.
A number is increased by 20% to result in 36. What was the original number?
34
28
30
32
If the original number is x, then 1.2x = 36. Dividing 36 by 1.2 results in x = 30, making it the correct answer. This question involves reverse percentage calculations.
The sum of two consecutive integers is 29. What are the integers?
13 and 14
14 and 15
15 and 16
12 and 13
Let the integers be n and n+1. The equation n + (n+1) = 29 simplifies to 2n + 1 = 29, resulting in n = 14. Therefore, the integers are 14 and 15.
If a car travels 150 miles in 3 hours, what is its average speed in mph?
50 mph
55 mph
45 mph
60 mph
Average speed is calculated by dividing the distance by the time. Dividing 150 miles by 3 hours yields an average speed of 50 mph.
Simplify the radical expression: √50.
√25+√2
10
2√5
5√2
Factoring 50 as 25×2 and taking the square root of 25 (which is 5) simplifies the expression to 5√2. This problem tests the ability to simplify radical expressions.
