  1. What is the median of the data set: 7, 2, 5, 9, 3, 8, 1?

    Answer: 5

    Ordered: 1,2,3,5,7,8,9 — the middle value (4th of 7) is 5.

  2. Solve the inequality: −3x > 12

    Answer: x < −4

    Divide both sides by −3 and flip the inequality sign: x < −4.

  3. What is the volume of a rectangular box with length 5, width 3, and height 4?

    Answer: 60

    Volume = l × w × h = 5 × 3 × 4 = 60.

  4. Which of the following is a rational number?

    Answer: 0.6̄ (0.666…)

    0.666… = 2/3, which is expressible as a ratio of integers, making it rational.

  5. If the ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:5 and there are 24 boys, how many girls are there?

    Answer: 40

    3/5 = 24/g → g = (24 × 5)/3 = 40 girls.

  6. What is the y-intercept of the line 4x − 2y = 8?

    Answer: −4

    Rewrite in slope-intercept form: y = 2x − 4, so the y-intercept is −4.

  7. Simplify: (x² − 4)/(x + 2)

    Answer: x − 2

    Factor the numerator as (x+2)(x−2); cancel (x+2) to get x − 2.
