7x - 6= 3x - 26
Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the value for x?
-5
6
5
-8
Correct Answer : A
Here we collect like terms together and solve for the unknown value of x.
7x-6=3x-26
Add 6 to both sides of the equation
7x-6+6=3x-26+6
7x=3x-20
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
7x-3x=-20
4x=-20
Divide both sides by 4
4x/-4=-20/4
x = -5
The value of x = -5

To answer this question, we need to observe the trend of the number of days with dollars. On day 2, the dollars were 8, after 5 days, the dollars decreased to 3, after 13 days, the dollars increased to 10. After 14 days, the dollars declined to 6 and again rose to 16 dollars after 19 days.
From this observation, we cannot be able to establishany correlation between days and dollars.

Explanation
to do a comparison of the given data set, we convert the fraction numbers into the approximate decimals.
4/3=1.333
2720=1.35
Now, we have 1.333, 1.35, 1.369, 1.357. These numbers are arranged from the smallest to the largest number, we look at the number in the second decimal place value
1.333 the number in second decimal place value is 3
1.35 the number in third decimal place value is 5
1.369 the number in third decimal place value is 6
1.357 the number in third decimal place value is 5
However, 1.35 and 1.357 have 5 in the second-place vale. We use the ird place value to compare the two number:
1.35 is same as 1.350 and the number in the third-place value is 0
1.357 the number in the third-place value is 7
Now, 0 is less than 7, and thus 1.35 is less than 1.357
Overall, 3 is less than 5, and 5 less than 6 and the provided numbers can be arranged from the smallest to the largest as:
1.333, 1.35, 1.357, 1.369
Thus, the corresponding given numbers organized from the smallest to the largest become:
4/3, 27/20, 1.357, 1.369
The greatest value is 1.369
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Percentages always add up to 100%. If we let x be the percent of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law, then
74%+3%+2%+x=100%
79%+x=100%
Subtract 79% from both sides of the equation
79%-79%+x=100%
x=100%-79%
x=21%
So, the number of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law is 21%.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
We are given a mix of fractions and decimals and to compare the numbers, we convert the given decimals to fractions.
4.4 becomes 44/10
4.25 becomes 425/100
Now the set of fractions for comparison are: 9/2, 10/3, 44/10, and 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 3 and 10 is 300. Then,
9/2*300=1350
10/3*300=1000
44/10*300=1320
425/10*300=1275
From the above products, 9/2 gives the greatest value when the fractions are compared with the least common denominator of the given denominators.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.
Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week.Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.
As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous data. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We need to perform a series of numerical dimensional analysis to find the number of bags sugar needed for 300 people.
We are told that 50 people need 4 cups of sugar. This can be interpretated as:
Or
Also, one bag of sugar contains 6 cups. This can also be presented as:
Or
We use the second option relating number of people and cups, and second option relating cups of sugar and bag of sugar to find for number of bags of sugar needed for 300 people.
Â
Therefore, 300 people will need 4 bags of sugar.

Explanation
We use the properties of exponent with the same base to solve for above expression.
Multiplication of exponents with same base, we add the exponents
Division of exponents with same base, we subtract the exponents
Using these two properties, we can solve the expression:

A whole pizza is equivalent to 1. Then
One friend eats half of the pizza=1/2 of 1=1/2*1=1/2
Remaining amount of pizza to be shared=1-1/2=2/2-1/2=1/2
Now, three friends share ½ equally and each friend will get,

We need to find the length of the rectangle from the given area and width of the rectangle. Let L be length if the rectangle. Then,
Area of rectangle=Length*width
Substituting area=32 in2 and w=4 inches
32=L*4
32=4L
Divide both sides by 4
32/4=4L/4
8=L
The length of the rectangle is 8 inches.
