On a floor plan drawn at a scale of 1:100, the area of a rectangular room is 30
cm2. What is the actual area of the room?
A. 30,000 cm2
B. 300 m2
C. 3,000 m2
D. 30 m2 - D. Since there are 100 cm in a meter, on a 1:100 scale drawing,
each centimeter represents one meter. Therefore, an area of one square
centimeter on the drawing represents one square meter tin actuality.
C
- Since the area of the room in the scale drawing is 30 cm2, the room's actual
area is 30 m2.
LE
ST
L/100 x W/100 = 30 cm2
BE
lw/100 = 30 cm2
Area = 300,000
cm2
300,000 cm2 x. 1m/100 cm x 1m/100 cm = 30m2

Mandy can buy 4 containers of yogurt and 3 boxes of crackers for $9.55. She
can buy 2 containers of yogurt and 2 boxes of crackers for $5.90. How much
does one box of crackers cost?
A.
$1.75
B.
$2.00
C.
$2.25
D. $2.50 - C.
C
The situation may be modeled by the
system: 4x + 3y = 9.55
LE
2x + 2y = 5.90
ST
Multiplying the bottom equation by - 2 gives:
BE
4x + 3y = 9.55
3
, BESTLEC
-4x - 4y = -11.80
Addition of the two equations gives - y = -2.25 or y = 2.25. Thus, one box of
crackers costs
$2.25
9.55-11.80 = -2.25
-y = -2.25
C
-y/-1 = -2.25/-1
y = 2.25

Pernell's scores on her last five chemistry exams were 81, 92, 87, 89, and 94.
What is the approximate average of her
scores? A. 81
B. 84
C. 89
D. 91 - C. To find the average of Pernell's scores, add them up and then
divide by the number of scores (5 in this case). In other words,
