Answer Section

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1.ANS:C

3 + (-7)

= -4

PTS:1

2.ANS:A

+12 ÷ (-12) A positive divided by a negative is negative, so the answer is -1.

PTS:1

3.ANS:B

The arrow right above the number line starts at 0 and goes to –1. The arrow above that starts at –1 and goes 4 units to the left. This represents –1 followed by –4 or just –1 + (–4).

PTS:1

4.ANS:A

-2 is represented by and +3 by . To add them we just put them together and ‘marry’ two positives with two negatives by removing them from the picture.

PTS:1

5.ANS:A

-5 - (-8)
= -5 + 8
= 3 / Subtracting a negative is the same as adding the positive...

PTS:1

6.ANS:A

The easiest way to do this question is to count the rows that are shaded: We see that 1 out of 3 rows are shaded or . So ... the reduced fraction is .

Another way is to count the total number of squares shaded ( The shaded area is a 1 by 4 rectangle with 4 squares, so the shaded part must be 4 out of 12 squares. If this is reduced, we get or

PTS:1

7.ANS:B

There are 3 marks on the number line between each unit, so each one is . The number marked is 2 spaces left of 0, so it is .

PTS:1

8.ANS:B

There are 3 marks on the number line between each unit, so each one is . The number marked is of one space to the right of 0, so it is . If every one of the spaces was split in half, there would be 6 of them in each unit, so each one would be .

PTS:1

9.ANS:D

To multiply fractions, just multiply the numerators and denominators to get .

PTS:1

10.ANS:A

/ To add/subtract fractions, get a common denominator (10) by multiplying the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 2 and then the numerator and denominator of the second fraction by 5.

PTS:1

11.ANS:A

6:8
= 3:4 / We can divide each term by 2 right away or look for one factor at a time.
At this point, no whole number divides evenly into both terms, so we say it is in ‘lowest terms’.

PTS:1

12.ANS:A

6:3
= 2:1 / We can divide each term by 3 right away or look for one factor at a time.
At this point, no whole number divides evenly into both terms, so we say it is in ‘lowest terms’.

PTS:1

13.ANS:A

The diagram shows that (find 6 on the top number line and 12 on the one below)

is equivalent to (because the 5 on the the top number line lines up with the 10 on the bottom one.) There are a number of other things it is also equal to, but this is the only correct choice.

PTS:1

14.ANS:A


= / We can divide the top and bottom of the fraction by 4 right away or look for one factor at a time.
At this point, no whole number divides evenly into the top and bottom, so we say it is in ‘lowest terms’.

PTS:1

15.ANS:D

230% means or 230 ÷ 100. To divide 230.0 by 100, the decimal moves 2 spots to the left and the correct answer is 2.3.

PTS:1

16.ANS:B

is the same as or . Therefore, is 160%. Some students will do this question by remembering that is 20%, so is 820% = 160%. Another way to do this is to convert to a decimal by dividing 8 by 5 to get 1.6 and then convert the decimal to a percentage by multiplying it by 100%.

PTS:1

17.ANS:A

Remember that "of" can be translated as multiplication.

20% of 400

Another way to do this is to note that 1% means 1 out of 100. So, 1% of 400 is 4. 20% of 400 is 20 4 = 80.

PTS:1

18.ANS:D

2.4 means or . Therefore, 2.4 is 240%. Another way to do this is to use the fact that 100% is the same as the number 1. We know that if we multiply a number by 1 we don't change its value, so 2.4 = 2.4 100%. Multiplying the 2.4 by the 100 we get 240% (the decimal place moves 2 units to the right when you multiply by 100).

PTS:1

19.ANS:C

Remember that "of" can be translated as multiplication.

10% of 600

Another way to do this is to note that 1% means 1 out of 100. So, 1% of 600 is 6. 10% of 600 is 10 6 = 60.

PTS:1

20.ANS:D

If you imagine each of the points being little magnets and the line of best fit being a needle, hopefully you can imagine it moving into the spot that line 4 occupies. It is 'closer' to more points than any other line and shows the general trend of the data.

PTS:1

21.ANS:A

In one hour she would earn =$10

PTS:1

22.ANS:A

If the taxi charged $ 40 for 8 km, then for 1 km

they would charge or $5 .

PTS:1

23.ANS:B

There are 4 divisions between 50 and 75 on the vertical scale. Each mark is 6.25. After 5 minutes the graph is just above the third mark above 50. So, the temperature is just over 50 + 3 • 6.25 = 68.75. The best choice is 69.

PTS:1

24.ANS:B

Following across from 25C on the vertictal axis, and then down to the horizontal axis, we get a point that appears to be almost exactly halfway between 7 and 8, so a reasonable answer is 7.5 minutes.

PTS:1

25.ANS:B

Each division on the vertical axis is 0.25 metres (since there are 4 divisions for 1 metre) and each division on the horizontal axis is 0.5 minutes. 2.75 metres is one mark below 3 metres on the vertical axis. Following across from 2.75 metres, and then down to the horizontal axis, we get a point about halfway between 2 and 2.5 minutes, so a reasonable answer is 2.25 minutes.

PTS:1

26.ANS:A

The ratio in a scale drawing is drawing: original Measure both lengths.

If we divide the length of the scale drawing (12.5) by the length of the original (5), we get 2.5, so the answer is 2.5:1

PTS:1

27.ANS:C

The ratio in a scale drawing is drawing: original. Since the 2nd term is largest, the original must be bigger. There is only one possible answer.

PTS:1

28.ANS:B

The sum of the 5 numbers is 44. The mean is = 8.8

PTS:1

29.ANS:C

There are more 10's than any other score, so the mode is 10.

PTS:1

30.ANS:D

The numbers listed from smallest to largest are: 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, and 10. The two numbers in the middle are 9 and 10, so the median is 9.5.
