To answer this question correctly you must remember

22、that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180. Therefore, x= 180-65-38, or 77 Therefore, Quantity B(87)is greater than Quantity A(77). 2 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 The correct answer is A. The sum of the values in Quantity A(91)is greater than the sum of the values in Quantity B(90), so the average

23、of Quantity A is greater than the average of Quantity B. 3 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 The correct answer is A, When x=4, Quantity A is equivalent to 3(4)4, or 3(256); Quantity B = 750, which is equivalent to 3(250). Therefore, Quantity A is greater than Quantity B. 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is C. To

24、 solve this problem remember that the volume is calculated by multiplying the length by the width by the height(1wh). Set up an equation to find the length of the box: l56 = 120 l30 = 120 l=4 The quantities are equal. 5 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 The correct answer is B. The probability of tossing two tails in

The mean for Quantity B would be 10 points greater than the mean for Quantity A, but the standard deviations would remain the same. 8 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The corr

27、ect answer is C. In order to calculate 15 percent of 90, multiply 90 by 0.15, the decimal equivalent of 15%. Likewise, to calculate 90 percent of 15, multiply 15 by 0.90, the decimal equivalent of 90 percent: (0.15)(90)= 13.5 (0.90)(15)= 13.5 The quantities are equal. 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 The correct a

28、nswer is D. Quantity A simplifies to n17, while Quantity B simplifies to n10. However, the greater quantity depends on the value of n. If the value is positive, then n17 is greater, but if n is negative, then n10 is the greater value. Since the quantities depend on the value assigned to the variable

29、, the relationship cannot be determined from the information given. 10 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 The correct answer is B. By the Pythagorean Theorem, the rectangle measures 6 cm by 8 cm(a 6-8-10 triangle), making its perimeter 28 cm. The equilateral triangle contains three sides that each measure 10 cm, makin

30、g its perimeter 30 cm and, therefore, greater than the perimeter of the rectangle. 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 The correct answer is A. To answer this question, first multiply the bottom equation by -3 to get -9x-21y=-246. Now you can add the two equations and eliminate one of the variables, as follows: (9x-

31、2y=16) +(-9x-21y=-246) - 23y=-230 y=10 Substitute 10 for y in the first equation and solve for x: 9x-2(10)= 16 9x-20=16 9x=36 x=4 Quantity A(x+y)is equivalent to 4 + 10, or 14, and Quantity B = 10; therefore, Quantity A is greater than Quantity B. 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 The correct answer is B. To solve

32、 this problem, plot the points in the coordinate plane, as shown below: AC is the hypotenuse of the right triangle that you just created, and AB is a side; the hypotenuse is always longer than either of the sides, so Quantity B(AC)is greater than Quantity A(AB). 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 The correct answer

33、 is D. Because you do not know the value of x, you cannot determine a relationship between the two quantities. For example, when x=3, the quantities are equal. However, when x is an integer greater than 3, Quantity B is greater. 14 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 The correct answer is D. The values of p and r are n

34、ot given, so you cannot determine the relationship between Quantity A and Quantity B. 15 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 The correct answer is E. You are given that the person traveled 5 blocks in 2 minutes, which means that the distance traveled in 16 minutes can be found using a proportion. If x represents the nu

35、mber of blocks traveled in 16 minutes, then 5/2 = x/16. Cross-multiply and solve for x, as shown below: 5/2=x/16 2x=80 x=40 16 【正确答案】 C 【试题解 析】 The correct answer is C. You are given the values of m-p and n+p. If you note that(m-p)+(n+p)=m-p+n+p, which equals m+n, then this value must be 4 + 18, whi

36、ch is 22. 17 【正确答案】 53 【试题解析】 The correct answer is 53. The best way to determine the prime factors of a large number is to use a factor tree. Start with 636, and divide by any available prime factor: for instance, two factors of 636 are 2 and 318. Next, 318 is divisible by the prime number 3, leavi

37、ng 106. Finally, 106 is divisible by 2, which leaves you with 53. 18 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 The correct answer is A. To solve this problem, you need to know how to graph xy-coordinates. Because point k is in the upper left quadrant, it must be negative. Eliminate answer choices C, D, and E. You are given t

38、hat RS = ST. Because the coordinates of S are(k, 4), RS must equal 4 units. Therefore, ST must equal 4 units, and point S must be 4 units to the left along the x-axis. The x-coordinate, k, must be -4. 19 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is C. An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides, and the

39、angles opposite those sides are also congruent. In any triangle, the total of all three interior angles is 180 degrees. Because you do not know which sides are congruent, neither(A)nor(B)alone is sufficient to answer the question; angle B could be either 80 or 50. However, if you take both statement

40、s together, as in statement(C), you know that angle B must equal 50, because 180o-80-50=50. 20 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 The correct answer is E. You are given that the product of the average of a list of course grades and the total number of courses is n. Recall that average, A, is equal to the sum of the co

41、urse grades, G, divided by the number of courses, C; thus A = G/C. Because n is the product of the number of courses, C, and the average of the course grades, A, n=AC. Further, because A = G/C, multiplying both sides by C yields G=AC. Finally because n=AC and G=AC, it follows that n = G. Thus n is t

42、he sum of the course grades. 21 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 The correct answer is E. Recall that the volume of a cube is equivalent to side side side, or s3. If the volume is 64, then s3 = 64, and s=4. Because there are 6 faces on a cube, the surface area will equal 6 times one of the surfaces, which are square

43、s with side s; the area of one face is s2. Therefore, the total surface area of the cube is 6s2, or 6(42), or 6(16), which equals 96. 22 【正确答案】 10 【试题解析】 The correct answer is 10. To quickly answer this question, draw a figure representing Camillas travel: The shortest distance between the houses is

44、 a straight line, which corresponds to the hypotenuse: Because this is a 3-4-5 right triangle, the hypotenuse is 10. 23 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 The correct answer is D. To answer this question, carefully convert the given information into its mathematical equivalent. The larger number is 3a+2; you are given

45、 that the smaller number is a. Therefore, the equation is 2(3a+2)+4a=73. 24 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 The correct answer is B. When x is positive and y is two greater than the square of x, y=x2 + 2. To find x in terms of y, solve the equation y=x2 + 2 for x. First, subtract 2 from both sides to get x2=y-2. Th

46、en take the square root of both sides such that y-2 is thought of as a single quantity: x = . 25 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is C. First recognize that $39 is 30% more than the cost of the sneakers for the store. This can be represented as 130%, or 1.3. Therefore, the store pays $39/1.3, or $

47、30 for a pair of sneakers. A sales associate pays 80% of this price: $30(0.8)=$24. 26 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is C. You are given that Jason traveled 30 miles in 6 hours and that Becky traveled three times as far in half the time; Becky traveled 30x3 or 90 miles in 6 , or 3 hours. Therefo

48、re, Becky traveled 90/3, or 30 miles per hour. 27 【正确答案】 25 【试题解析】 The correct answer is 25. The formula for the area of a triangle is (b)(h). The base of the triangle is 10(the diameter of the circle)and the height of the triangle is 5(the radius of the circle). Therefore, the area is (10)(5)= 25.

49、28 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is C. You are given that the average of x and y is 16. Therefore,(x+y)2 = 16, which means that x+y=32. It is not important to know what x and y equal individually, only to know that their sum is 32. Given that the average of x, y, and z is 22, then(x+y+z)+ 3 = 22, and x+y+z=66. Since x+y=32, then 32+z=66, and z=34. 29 【正确答案】 A, C 【试题解析】 The correct answer is A and C. You are given that the probability of drawing a green marble is 4/9 or 4 out of 9. This means that the total number of marbles in the bag
