Sample Practice Test Questions
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 50% off." If Damon buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $39, how much will he pay for both shirts?
By buying two shirts, Damon will save $39 x \( \frac{50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$39 x 50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$1950}{100} \) = $19.50 on the second shirt.
So, his total cost will be
$39.00 + ($39.00 - $19.50)
$39.00 + $19.50
$58.50
If a = c = 3, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 58°, what is the area of this parallelogram?
The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:
a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 8
a = 24
Which of the following is the result of the air-fuel mixture exploding instead of burning?
detonation
Normal combustion in an engine is initiated by a spark plug and results in the complete burning of the air-fuel mixture. If combustion is initiated by a source other than the spark plug, by a hot spot in the cylinder or combustion chamber for example, pre-ignition results. Detonation results if the air-fuel mixture explodes instead of burning. Detonation can cause extremes in pressure in the combustion chamber leading to engine damage.
This circuit component symbol represents a(n):
DC source
Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of direct current (DC) is a battery.
Which of these is important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair?
protein
Found in both animal sources (meat, fish, eggs, cheese) and vegetables (beans, nuts, some grains), proteins are important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair.
The asteroids in the Kuiper belt are composed of which of the following?
frozen methane, ammonia, and water
The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.
