Questions (Math Praxis 5003 form 3)
County Population
Brookhaven 74,702
Columbus 70,472
Davidson 74,072
Washington 74,720
The chart shows the populations of four neighboring counties. Quyen lives in the
county with a population of 70,000+4,000+70+270,000+4,000+70+2. In which
county does Quyen live?
A.Brookhaven
B.Columbus
C.Davidson
D.Washington - CORRECT ANSWER-C. Davidson
The question requires an understanding of how to compose and decompose
multidigit numbers. The expanded form 70,000+4,000+70+270,000+4,000+70+2
corresponds to the number 74,072, which is the population of Davidson County.
Which of the following is an algebraic expression?
A.6x−4
B.6y<4
C.6z=4
D.6+4 - CORRECT ANSWER-A. 6x-4
The question requires an understanding of how to differentiate between algebraic
expressions and equations. An algebraic expression is made of constants,
variables, and algebraic operations. While (A) is an algebraic expression, (B) is
an algebraic inequality, (C) is an algebraic equation, and (D) is a numerical
expression.
(2/3)/(4/3)+(3/5)x(5/3)^2
,Which of the following is equivalent to the expression shown?
A. 2/9
B. 13/6
C. 23/9
D. 55/18 - CORRECT ANSWER-B. 13/6
The question requires an understanding of how to solve problems using the order
of operations. By using the order of operations and the fact that dividing is
equivalent to multiplying by the inverse, the expression (2/3)/(4/3)+(3/5)x(5/3)^2
can be simplified to (2/3)x(3/4)+(3/5)x(25/9). Performing both multiplications
yields (1/2)+(5/3), which is equivalent to (13/6).
Mary has a rectangular garden in her backyard. The garden measures 5(3/4) feet
wide by 7(1/2) feet long. What is the area of the garden?
A. 26(1/2) square feet
B. 35(3/8) square feet
C. 36(1/8) square feet
D. 43(1/8) square feet - CORRECT ANSWER-D. 43(1/8) square feet
The question requires an understanding of how to find the area and perimeters of
polygons. If a rectangle has a length of ℓℓ units and a width of w units, then its
area is ℓ×wℓ×w square units.
(I can't insert the image of the figures so I am sorry)
The first three figures in a pattern are shown. The 1st figure is composed of two
triangles and one square. Each figure after the 1st figure is composed of two
triangles and one square more than the preceding figure. How many line
segments are in the 10th figure of the pattern?
A.35
B.38
C.41
D.44 - CORRECT ANSWER-A. 35
The question requires an understanding of how to identify and extend a pattern.
The first figure has 8 line segments. Adding a square to each figure is equivalent
to adding 3 line segments. So the number of line segments of the nth figure can
, be described by the equation f(n)=5+3n, with n=1,2,3,... Therefore the 10th figure
of the pattern has f(n)=5+3×10, or 35 line segments.
Which of the following is a statistical question?
Select all that apply.
A.What is the daily high temperature for an August day in Cheyenne, Wyoming?
B.How many speeches did George Washington make during his life?
C.How many minutes did Hannah spend talking on her phone on August 28,
2016 ?
D.What was the average number of miles a week run by the members of the
Hereford High School cross-country team last month? - CORRECT ANSWER-A.
What is the daily high temperature for an August day in Cheyenne, Wyoming?
D.What was the average number of miles a week run by the members of the
Hereford High School cross-country team last month?
The question requires an understanding of how to identify statistical questions. A
statistical question is one that can be answered by collecting data and where
there will be variability in the data collected.
Which word describes each angle in an equilateral triangle?
A.Acute
B.Obtuse
C.Right
D.Straight - CORRECT ANSWER-A. Acute
The question requires an understanding of how to classify angles based on their
measure. An equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all its angles have
the same measure. Therefore, each angle has a measure of 180÷3180÷3, or 60
degrees. An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees.
Therefore, the angles of an equilateral triangle are all acute.
Lilly, Madelyn, Natalie, and Olivia each walked from their houses to the mall. Lilly
walked 1/4 mile, Madelyn walked 3/8 mile, Natalie walked 5/6 mile, and Olivia
walked 7/12 mile. Which list shows these distances in order from least to
greatest?
A. 1/4 mi, 3/8 mi, 5/6 mi, 7/12 mi
B. 1/4 mi, 3/8 mi, 7/12 mi, 5/6 mi
