An athlete runs 7 miles in 45 minutes and then changes their pace to run the next 3 miles in 15 minutes. Overall, what is the average time in minutes it takes the athlete to run 1 mile?
9.5 minutes
9 minutes
6 minutes
10minutes
Correct Answer : C
to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile; we find total distance and total time the athlete takes in running.
Total distance run by athlete=7+3=10 miles
Total time=45+15 =60 minutes
The athlete runs 10 miles in 60 minutes. For the athlete to cover 1 mile, he will run for a time less than 60 minutes. Thus, in 1 mile, the athlete takes:

So, in 6 minutes, the athlete covers 1 mile.

Correct Answer is D
Explanation
In order for the teacher to better visualize the test performance for his class, he needs to present the mark distribution in chart form. A better chart visualizer is the histogram, which will show the frequency of marks against range of test scores. A bar graph will not be used because the rectangles need to touch one another.
In a bar graph, the rectangles do not touch each other. Therefore, it will not be a good chart visualizer.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
From the cost of 45 syringes, we are required to find the cost of 5 syringes. We set up a proportion equation by letting the cost of 5 syringes to y. Besides, we let the cost to be numerator and number of syringes to be denominator as follows.

Solve the value of y by cross products


Divide both sides by 45


Therefore, 5 syringes will cost $80.00.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We use given information to find how much ammonia is need to make the specified solution.
We are told, one gallon of cleaning solution requires 10oz of ammonia. Expressing this mathematically yields two options:
\(\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\)or\(\frac{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}\)
Now we find how much ammonia is needed using option two.
\(51\ gallon\ of\ solution\ *\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\ =\ 510\ oz\ of\ ammonia\)
From the above equation, gallon of solution will cancel, and oz of ammonia is left.
Therefore, the solution will require 510 oz of ammonia.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
We solve for the value of x by following the order of operations
3(x-2)=15
Divide both sides of the equation by 3


Add 2 to both sides of the equation


Thus, the value of x is 8.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A ratio is of the form a : b but can also be converted to a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. Besides, to in ration means per in fraction form.
In the class of 40 students, 22 are girls and 18 are boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:
 
The above fraction can be reduced further since 2 is a common factor in both 22 and 18. Thus

Â
In ratio form, girls: boys=11:9
Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 40 students is 11 to 9.
Correct Answer is A

Explanation
The truck carries a whole cargo which equals 1. If we let the weight of the cargo to be p, then we set up a proportion equation with weight as numerator and fraction of cargo as denominator.

Solve for value of p by cross products

Multiply both sides by 3/2 a reciprocal of 2/3


The truck carries a cargo weighing 795 lb.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
