Answers:

2- C
Simplify: \(5(x-2y)+(2-x)^2 = (5x-10y)+(4-4x+x^2) = x -10y +4 +x^2\)
When \(x=3\) and \(y=-2\),therefore:
\(x -10y +4 +x^2 =3+20+4+9 =36\)

3- C
\(average (mean) = \frac{sum \space of \space terms }{number \space of \space terms}⇒ 88 = \frac{sum \space of \space terms}{50}⇒ sum = 88 × 50 = 4400\)
The difference of 94 and 69 is 25. Therefore, 25 should be subtracted from the sum.
\(4400 – 25 = 4375\)
\(mean =\frac{sum \space of \space terms}{number \space of \space terms}⇒ mean = \frac{4375 }{50}= 87.5\)

4- D
If the length of the box is 27, then the width of the box is one third of it, 9, and the height of the box is 3 (one third of the width). The volume of the box is:
\(V = lwh = (27) (9) (3) = 729\)

5- C
Add the first 5 numbers. \(40 + 45 + 50 + 35 + 55 = 225\)
To find the distance traveled in the next 5 hours, multiply the average by number of hours.
\(Distance = Average × Rate = 50 × 5 = 250\)
Add both numbers.
\(250 + 225 = 475\)

6- 240
The ratio of boy to girls is 2:3. Therefore, there are 2 boys out of 5 students. To find the answer, first divide the total number of students by 5, then multiply the result by 2.
\(600 ÷ 5 = 120 ⇒ 120 × 2 = 240\)

7- 130
The perimeter of the trapezoid is 54 cm.
Therefore, the missing side (high) is \(= 54 – 18 – 12 – 14 = 10\)
Area of a trapezoid:
\( A = \frac{1}{2}h (b_1 + b_2) = \frac{1}{2}(10) (12 + 14) = 130\)

8- A
Let \(x\) be the number of years. Therefore, $2,000 per year equals 2000\(x\).
starting from $24,000 annual salary means you should add that amount to 2000\(x\).
Income more than that is:
\(I > 2000x + 24000\)

9- D
Solve for \(x\).
\(-2≤2x-4<8 \)⇒ (add 4 all sides)\( -2+4≤2x-4+4<8+4 \)
\(⇒ 2≤2x<12 \)
⇒ (divide all sides by 2)\( 1≤x<6\)
\(x\) is between 1 and 6.

10- A
Let \(x\) be the number of new shoes the team can purchase. Therefore, the team can purchase 120 \(x\).
The team had $20,000 and spent $14000. Now the team can spend on new shoes $6000 at most.
Now, write the inequality:
\(120x+14.000 ≤20.000\)

11- B
For Sum 6: (1 & 5) and (5 & 1), (2 & 4) and (4 & 2), (3 & 3), so we have 5 options.
For sum 9: (3 & 6) and (6 & 3), (4 & 5) and (5 & 4), we have 4 options.
To get a sum of 6 or 9 for two dice: \(5+4=9\)
Since we have \(6 × 6 = 36\) total options, the probability of getting a sum of 6 and 9 is 9 out of 36 or \(\frac{1}{4}\).

12- 8
Use formula of rectangle prism volume.
\(V = (length) (width) (height) ⇒ 2000 = (25) (10) (height)\)
\( ⇒ height = 2000 ÷ 250 = 8\)

13- A
For each option, choose a point in the solution part and check it on both inequalities.
A. Point \((–4, –4)\) is in the solution section. Let’s check the point in both inequalities.
\(-4 ≤ – 4 + 4, \space It \space works\)
\(2 (–4) + (–4) ≤ –4 ⇒ – 12 ≤ – 4\) it works (this point works in both)
B. Let’s choose this point \((0, 0)\)
\(0 ≤ 0 + 4, \space It \space works\)
\(2 (0) + (0) ≤ –4, \space \space That’s \space not \space true!\)
C. Let’s choose this point \((–5, 0)\)
\(0 ≤ -5 + 4, \space That’s \space not \space true!\)
D. Let’s choose this point \((0, 5)\)
\(5 ≤ 0 + 4, \space That’s \space not \space true!\)

14- C
Use simple interest formula:
I=prt
(I = interest, p = principal, r = rate, t = time)
\(I=(8000)(0.045)(5)=1800\)

15- B
The probability of choosing a Hearts is \(\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}\)

16- C
Use distance formula:
\(Distance = Rate × time ⇒ 420 = 50 × T\)
divide both sides by 50.
\(\frac{420}{50} = T ⇒ T = 8.4 \space hours\)
Change hours to minutes for the decimal part.
\(0.4 \space hours = 0.4 × 60 = 24 \space minutes\)

17- C
\(11 × 36 + 6 × 12 + 4 = 472\)

18- D
To find the discount, multiply the number by (\(100\% – \)Rate of discount).
Therefore, for the first discount we get:
\((200) (100\% – 15\%) = (200) (0.85) = 170\)
For the next \(15%\) discount: \((200) (0.85) (0.85)\)

19- B
Input \((-1, 3)\) in the \(2x + 4y = 10\) formula instead of \(x\) and y. So we have:
\( 2(-1) + 4(3) = 10\)
\(-2 + 12 = 10\)

20- A
Use PEMDAS (order of operation):
\(5 + 8 × (–2) – [4 + 22 ×5] ÷ 6 = 5 + 8 × (–2) – [4 + 110] ÷ 6 = 5 + 8 × (–2) – [114] ÷ 6 = 5 + (–16) – 19 = 5 + (–16) – 19 = –11 – 19 = –30\)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the NJSLA test?

The NJSLA (New Jersey Student Learning Assessments) is New Jersey’s yearly state test, which replaced PARCC in 2019. Seventh graders take NJSLA math in the spring, and it keeps a PARCC-style format with online tools, multi-part problems and written explanations. Practice tests built on PARCC-style items, like this set, still match the grade 7 math content well.

What is a good NJSLA score?

NJSLA scores range from 650 to 850 and fall into five performance levels. A score of 750 or higher reaches Level 4, Met Expectations, which New Jersey treats as on grade level, and Level 5 means Exceeded Expectations. If your seventh grader lands in Level 3, they are close, and a few focused weeks on weak topics can make a real difference.

Is the NJSLA graded?

NJSLA is scored, but it is not a class grade. Your child gets a scale score and a performance level, and schools use the results to plan support and track progress. In most districts the score does not appear on the report card, though policies vary, so check with your child’s school if you are unsure how results are used.

Is there an NJSLA grade 7 math reference sheet?

Yes. New Jersey provides a grade 7 mathematics reference sheet for the NJSLA with formulas such as area of a circle and volume of a prism, plus unit conversions. Practice with the same sheet before test day. For example, a box 27 cm long, 9 cm wide and 3 cm tall has volume 27 × 9 × 3 = 729 cm³.

What are the 7th grade math standards?

Grade 7 math standards, including the New Jersey Student Learning Standards that NJSLA tests, cover ratios and proportional relationships, the number system with negative numbers, expressions and equations, geometry (area, surface area, volume, angles) and statistics and probability. One skill to check: when one score in a list of 50 is fixed from 94 to 69, the mean drops from 88 to 87.5.

Is there an NJSLA grade 7 math practice test?

Yes. New Jersey offers official NJSLA practice tests online so students can try the format and tools. A PARCC-style paper set like this one is a good warm-up before that. Have your seventh grader work in one sitting, then review misses by topic and redo each one without looking at the solution.
