The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that the slope of a wheelchair ramp be no greater than 1:12. Which of the following is the minimum length of a ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 feet above the sidewalk?
12 feet
4.5 feet
3 feet
18 feet
Correct Answer : D
We use the given slope to find the minimum length of the ramp. In this case, slope is the ratio of height to length of the lamp. Thus,
If we let x be the minimum length of the ramp. Then,
Substituting the value of slope into the above equation results in,
Solve for value of x by cross-products
X = 18 Feet
Thus, the minimum length of the ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 high is 18 feet.

We are tasked to find the stock price on Thursday from the given information. Here, we need to find the stock of each day from the price increase or decrease. If the price increases, we add to the previous day’s price and subtract if the price decreases.
Monday’s stock price=$65.50
Tuesday’s stock price is Monday’s plus $1.50=65.50+1.50=$67.00
Wednesday’s stock price went down by $2.57 from Tuesday’s=67.00-2.57=$64.43
Thursday’s stock price went up by $2.25 from Wednesday’s =64.43+2.25=$66.68
From the above evaluation, the stock price on Thursday was $66.68

Explanation
The volume V of a rectangular box can be calculated using the formula:
V=length×width×height
Given:
- Length = 8 metres
- Width = 5 metres
- Height = 3 metres
Now, calculate the volume:
V=8 m×5 m×3 m=120 m3
Thus, the volume of the box is 120 cubic metres.
The correct answer is B. 120 m³.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:
Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:
Solve the value of x by cross-products
Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to
Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
The mean of a data set is the sum of all scores divided by the number of tests.
Total test scores = 83+86+76+88+97 = 430
Number of tests = 5
Mean test score = 430/5 = 86
The mean test score is 86.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A dependent variable is one that depends on the independent variable. An independent variable is one that when changed result in a change of another variable.
In this problem, if we change the brand of laptop, tax rate, and memory size, the price of the laptop changes. Thus, the cost of the laptop is the dependent variable.

Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Given:
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder for every ½ cup of flour.
- We are using 5 cups of flour.
Step 1: Determine how many teaspoons are needed per cup of flour.
Since the recipe calls for 2 teaspoons for every ½ cup of flour, the number of teaspoons required for 1 full cup of flour would be:
2 teaspoons×2=4 teaspoonspercup.
Step 2: Calculate how many teaspoons are needed for 5 cups of flour.
Now, multiply the number of teaspoons needed for 1 cup of flour by 5:
4 teaspoonspercup×5 cups=20 teaspoons.
Thus, the number of teaspoons of baking powder needed for 5 cups of flour is 20 teaspoons.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. 20 tsp.
