$4.00
$6.00
$5.00
$7.00
Correct Answer : B
When dealing with percent problems, the following is utilized to find the unknown variable.
- Is means equals
- Of means multiply
- What means unknown (variable)
From the problem above, we are looking for the amount of gratuity the couple can leave.
Let t be the amount of gratuity. Translating into an equation, we have
The gratuity is 15% of the total bill, which becomes
Here, of means multiply and we also convert percent into decimal before multiplying.
So, the value of t=5.76
Thus, a couple will leave a gratuity of $5.76, which is about $6.00.

The initial step is to establish the relationship between area of a circle and the radius. The area of the circle is given by the formula
Now, substituting the 49 π
 in2 in place of A in the equation above becomes:
We want to find r, therefore, we rearrange the equation as
Divide both sides by 
Take square root both sides of the equation
The radius of the circle is 7 in, and the circumference of the circle is determined as follows
Substituting the value of r=7 becomes
Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is 49 
 in2 is 14

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
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
the median of a data set is the element that is found on the middle position. It is found by organizing the elements from the smallest to largest.
The data set above arranged from the smallest to largest is:
11, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 17, 17, 18, 22, 26
The number of elements is odd and the median is found in the (N+1)/2 th position. Here N=11, and the median falls in (11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.
The element 14 falls in the 6th position, which is our median of the given data set.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
scatter plots can of three types: positive, negative and no correlation. A positive correlation scatter plot shows that as one variable increase, the other variable increases. A positive correlation can be visually depicted below.
In a negative correlation, the change in one variable is inversely proportional to another variable. That is, as one variable increases, the other variable decreases as shown below.
The third type of scatter plot is a no-correlation scatter plot. In this type of plot, there is no defined relationship between one variable and another one as in the curve below.
If we look at the relationship between the time the student listens to music and his test score, it is evident that no relationship exists between the two variables. Thus, this is a type of no correlation scatter plot.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
from the given estimations, we can find the actual addition of the numbers and see a trend the student utilizes to find their estimates. The exact sum is as follows
24+190=214
151+319=470
974+1022=1996
From the above evaluation, we can clearly see the students approximates the value in the ones values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 452+5017.
452+5017=5469
We can approximate 5469 based on the provided choices to 5470.
