An energy company’s stock price was $65.50 on Monday. On Tuesday, the price went up $1.50. On Wednesday, the price decreased from Tuesday’s price by $2.57. On Thursday, the price went up $2.25 from Wednesday’s price. Which of the following was the final price on Thursday?
$66.68
$65.79
$67.00
$64.43
Correct Answer : A
We are tasked to find the stock price on Thursday from the given information. Here, we need to find the stock of each day from the price increase or decrease. If the price increases, we add to the previous day’s price and subtract if the price decreases.
Monday’s stock price=$65.50
Tuesday’s stock price is Monday’s plus $1.50=65.50+1.50=$67.00
Wednesday’s stock price went down by $2.57 from Tuesday’s=67.00-2.57=$64.43
Thursday’s stock price went up by $2.25 from Wednesday’s =64.43+2.25=$66.68
From the above evaluation, the stock price on Thursday was $66.68

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
To find the pounds equivalent of the kg given, we use the two options as given below.
OR
Since we want to remain with pounds, we use the second option and set up the equation below.
Thus, 65 kg is equal to 143 lb.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Here, we are required to find the unit of measuring mass. The SI unit of mass is kilogram but other derived units are grams, milligrams, microgram and more.
A kilogram is a large quantity for measuring heavier objects but grams can used to measure small and light objects such as the mass of the mobile phone. Therefore, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a mobile phone.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The median of a data set is a number that falls in the middle of the data set. To find the median, the numbers in the data set are arranged from the smallest to the largest. In the given data set, the organized arrangement is:
-5, -1, 0, 3, 9
There are five elements in the data set, and the median falls in the third position from either side. Thus, 0 falls in the third position.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Before finding the greatest number from the data set, the numbers need to be in fraction form.
-0.5=-5/10
-1.5=-15/10
The set of numbers becomes -2/3, -5/10, -15/10, -4/9
Now the least common denominator for 3, 10, and 9 is 90, which will be used to multiplied by the given fractions as follows:
-2/3*90=-60
-5/10*90=-45
-15/10*90=-135
-4/9*90=-40
From the above evaluations, the resulting numbers arranged from the smallest to the largest is -135, -60, -45, -40. Thus, the greatest number from the data set is -40, with a corresponding fraction of -4/9.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
We use the calculator to find the positive square root of 19, which is then multiplied by 3.
Using the calculator,
Multiplying the square root above with 3 becomes
The approximate value of 3 times the square root of 19 is 13.1.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
P-At=-kr
Subtract P on both sides
P-P-At=-kr-P
-At=-kr-P
Divide both sides by -t
-At/-t=(-kr-P)/-t
A=(kr+P)/t
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The percentage change in weight is found in three steps below:
Absolute change in weight=final weight-initial weight
Absolute change in weight=(left|120-153 ight|=left|-33 ight|=33)
Relative change in weight=(frac{absolute change}{initial weight}=frac{33}{153}=0.216)
Percent change=relative change * 100%
Percent change=0.216*100%=21.6%
The percent change in weight lost is 21.6 %, which is about 22%.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The probability of finding a green ball is given by
Â
Total number of balls in the bag=6+8+3=17 balls
Therefore, the probability of drawing a green ball from the bag containing 17 balls is 6/17.
