If a hexahedral die is rolled two times, what's the probability of NOT rolling a five both times?

  1. 1/36
  2. 1/6
  3. 4/36
  4. 25/36

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The probability of rolling a 5 is 1 out of 6 (1/6), so the probability of NOT rolling a 5 is 1 ­ 1/6, or 5/6. The probability of not rolling a 5 twice is 5/6 × 5/6, or 25/36.



Jack loaned Bob $1,500 at an annual interest rate of 7%.
After one year, how much will Bob owe Jack?

  1. $105
  2. $1,500
  3. $1,605
  4. $1,507

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Multiply loaned money, $1,500, by 7% to determine how much is the annual interest rate. $1,500 × 0.07 = $105.
Then add the annual interest state to the total amount of debt $105 + $1,500 = $1,605.



A 2-ton truck is taxed at a rate of $0.12 per pound.
How much is the total tax bill?

  1. $480
  2. $240
  3. $120
  4. $600

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

2 tons = 4,000 pounds. 4,000 × $0.12 = $480.00.



If ab = 10, and a2 + b2 = 30, solve for y in the equation, y = (a + b)2.

  1. 40
  2. 45
  3. 50
  4. 55

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

y = (a + b)2. Expanding the equation results in y = a2 + b2 + 2ab. You know that a2 + b2 = 30, and ab = 10. When you substitute these known values into the equation, you get y = 30 + 2(10). Solving for y, results in y = 50.



A half-pint of cream is what part of a gallon?

  1. 1/8
  2. 1/4
  3. 1/16
  4. 1/6

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

8 pints make up a gallon, so a gallon contains 16 half-pints. One half-pint equals 1/16 of a gallon.
