A baker is using a cookie recipe that call for 2 ¼ cups of flour to yield 36 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies using the same recipe?
6 ¾ cups
5 5/8 cups
10 1/8 cups
4 ¾ cups
Correct Answer : B
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
Letting x be the number of cups of flour and setting the proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator. We have
Solve the value of x by cross-multiplying
We convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication
\(x =\ \frac{9}{4}\ cups\ *\ 90\ cookies\ *\ \frac{1}{36}\ cookies\)
The number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 5.625 cups, which is equal to 5 5/8 cups(Choice B).

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The number of boxes is determined by finding the volume of the room divided by the volume of the box.
Number of boxes
The approximate number of boxes that can be stored in the room is 92.
However, the room’s dimensions are 9 ft x 9 ft x 9 ft, and the boxes are 2 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft (unchangeable shape). To determine how many boxes fit along each dimension:
- In the 9 ft length, you can fit\(\frac{9}{2} = 4.5\ boxes\) which means only 4 whole boxes fit along this dimension.
- In the 9 ft width, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
- In the 9 ft height, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
Therefore, the total number of boxes that fit is:
\(4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64\ boxes\)
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
The mean of a data set is the total scores divided by the number of tests.
Total test scores =100+78+47+84+93+78=480
Number of tests =6
Mean test score =480/6=80
The mean test score is 80.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
, a>0, then u=a or u=-a
In this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes
Solving for x
The second condition becomes
Solving for x
Then, the value of x is -1 or 2.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We are asked to find the dependent variable from the given scenario. A dependent variable is one which varies with another variable. In this case, the cost of the pizza will change with the change in diameter of the pizza, number of toppings, and amount of cheese. In other words, the cost of the pizza depends on the three variables.
Therefore, cost is the dependent variable while the diameter of the pizza, number of toppings and amount of cheese are independent variables.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
We are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program using the percentages in the pie chart.
If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program, we can set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator. The whole pie chart represents 100%, which is 800 students. Then, 19% will represent
We solve the value of x by cross-multiplying the equation above.
So, 152 students will enroll for a respiratory care program.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment. From the given equation, t is an independent variable, which when changed changes the values of the f(t).
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
We let x represent the amount of vanilla in mL, since this is what the question is asking us to find.
Next, we will set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.
Cross-multiply to find the value of x
A recipe of 2.5 teaspoons equals 12.325 mL.
Correct Answer is D

Explanation
We are asked to find the one of the lengths of a right-angled triangle, we use the Pythagoras theorem to find the unknown length.
First, we label the triangle as below and let the unknown length be x.
Then, we apply the Pythagoras theorem to find the value of x as:
\(a^2+b^2=c^2\)
The value of the unknown length is approximately 8.9 feet.

To calculate the percentage increase in client volume, use the formula:
PercentageIncrease×100
Step 1: Identify values
- Old Value (Year 1): 841 clients
- New Value (Year 2): 1,072 clients
Step 2: Compute the increase
1,072−841=231
Step 3: Calculate the percentage increase
×100 ≈ 27.47%
Step 4: Choose the closest answer
The closest option is 27%.
