Sample Questions
The numbers of absences in Mrs. Klein’s class for each of the first 3 months of the year were 16, 12, and 17, respectively. If the average (arithmetic mean) number of absences for the first 4 months of the year was 14, how many absences were there in the 4th month?
A) 9
(B) 10
(C) 11
(D) 12
(E) 13
The correct answer is (C).
For the average of a set of data, the sum of the data entries is equal to the product of the average and the number of entries.
Sum of data entries = Average × Total number of entries .
Since the average of the absences for the first
4 months is 14, the number of absences for the first 4 months is 14 × 4 = 56 . The number of absences in the fourth month is the number of absences in the first 4 months minus the number of absences in the first 3 months, or 56 − (16 + 12 + 17) = 11 . The answer, therefore, is choice (C).
If 4 x = 14 + 9 y and y = 2, what is the value of x ?
(A) 4
(B) 5
(C) 6
(D) 7
(E) 8
The correct answer is (E).
Since y = 2 , substituting the value 2 for y in the equation 4x = 14 + 9y gives the following equations.
4x = 14 + 9(2) 4x = 14 + 18 4x = 32
Dividing both sides of the equation 4x = 32 by 4 gives the result x = 8 . The answer, therefore, is choice (E).
