11

Answer

We can determine the relationship between the values by creating a ratio of number of cupcakes to cost:

Where represents the cost of 1 cupcake.

We can now solve for :

The cost of one cupcake is then $0.85

Question

The following table consists of the test grades from students. Use the table to determine how many students received a on the test.

12

Answer

We were told the grades are from students. The most direct way to solve this problem is to add the numbers of students listed so far:

We know there is a total of students so we can set up the equation:

which leaves us with .

So the missing value is eight.

Aracely posted a survey question using one of her social network accounts. She grouped the results into three categories. The response results are represented by the Venn diagram shown above.

Group represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question. Group represents the respondents that answered "no" to the survey question. And, the overlapping part of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.

What percentage of the respondents answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question?

Answer

The overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the percentage of respondents that answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question.

Since the diagram shows that exactly percent of the respondents answered "yes" or "no" to the question

.

The solution is the total percent population take away the percent that answered "yes" or "no":

The Venn diagram shown above has three categories that represent information about the Wildcats varsity baseball team.

Category represents the number of players on the team that are left-handed.
Category represents the numebr of players on the team that are pitchers.
And, the overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the number of players that are left-handed pitchers.

Given that and that there are players in the overlapping region of the diagram.

What fraction of the players are left-handed pitchers?

Answer

Since there are left-handed pitchers and total players that are either left-handed, pitchers or both the solution is:

The Venn diagram above represents the results from a recent survey given to middle school students. Category represents the amount of students that only like pizza. Category represents the amount of students that only chicken nuggets.

What percentage of students like both chicken nuggets and pizza?

Answer

Since we are asked to find the percent of students that like both chicken nuggets and pizza we need to first add the percentages together.

Thus we get,

.

The amount of students that like both pizza and chicken nuggets is going to be all of the students minus those that like only chicken nuggets and only pizza.

.

Question

What is the next number in the series?

Answer

First, determine what the pattern is in the series. The pattern here is to multiply the previous number by 2 and then add 1. Therefore, multiply 47 by 2 (which is 94), and then add 1. The result is 95.

Question

What is the missing number in the following list:

Answer

In this sequence of numbers, there is an important pattern to recognize. In this sequence each number is a prime number, however the sequence skips every other prime number. Thus, the sequence begins with the prime number and then skips the prime number (which is the only even prime number) and goes to . From the next prime number is , however since the pattern in this sequence skips every other prime number--the missing number is .
