Answers:

2- C
Let \(x\) be the original price.
If the price of a laptop is decreased by \(10\%\) to $360, then:
\(90 \% of x=360 ⇒ 0.90x=360 ⇒ x=360÷0.90=400\)

3- B
Write the numbers in order:
\(4, 5, 8, 9, 13, 15, 18\)
Since we have 7 numbers (7 is odd), then the median is the number in the middle, which is 9.

4- A
Let \(L\) be the price of a laptop and \(C\) be the price of a computer.
\(3(L) =5(C) \space and \space L = $200 + C \)
Therefore, \(3($200 + C) =5C ⇒ $600 + 3C = 5C ⇒ C=$300\)

5- 97.6
Use the area of a square formula.
\(S = a^2 ⇒ 595.36 = a^2 ⇒ a = 24.4\)
Use the perimeter of a square formula.
\(P = 4a ⇒ P=4(24.4) ⇒ P = 97.6\)

6- C
The distance between Jason and Joe is 9 miles. Jason is running at 5.5 miles per hour, and Joe is running at the speed of 7 miles per hour. Therefore, every hour, the distance is 1.5 miles less.
\(9 ÷ 1.5 = 6\)

7- D
The failing rate is 11 out of \(55 = \frac{11}{55}\).
Change the fraction to a percent:
\(\frac{11}{55} ×100\%=20\%\)
20 percent of students failed. Therefore, 80 percent of students passed the exam.

8- 60
Jason needs a \(75\%\) average to pass for five exams. Therefore, the sum of 5 exams must be at least \(5 × 75 = 375\)
The sum of 4 exams is:
\(68 + 72 + 85 + 90 = 315\)
The minimum score Jason can earn on his fifth and final test to pass is:
\( 375 – 315 = 60\)

9- B
Use the simple interest formula:
\(I=prt\)
(I = interest, p = principal, r = rate, t = time)
\(I=(12000)(0.035)(2)=840\)

10- D
Let \(x\) be the integer. Then:
\(2x – 5 = 83\)
Add 5 both sides: \(2x = 88\)
Divide both sides by 2: \(x = 44\)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the NWEA MAP test?

The NWEA MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) Growth test is an adaptive computer assessment given by many schools two or three times a year. It measures progress in reading, language, math, and science, and reports scores on the RIT scale.

What math topics does 7th grade MAP cover?

Operations and algebraic thinking (expressions, equations, inequalities), the real number system (rational numbers, integer arithmetic), geometry (area, volume, scale drawings, angle relationships), and statistics and probability (measures of center, simple probability).

How is the test scored?

MAP uses the RIT (Rasch Unit) scale, an equal-interval score that tracks growth across grades and years. A 7th-grade math RIT around 225 is roughly average; growth of 4-6 points per year is typical.

How long does the MAP test take?

Most students finish in 45-60 minutes per subject, though MAP is untimed in most schools. The test ends when the algorithm has narrowed the score enough — students typically see 40-50 items.

Does MAP penalize guessing?

No — unanswered questions count as wrong, so guessing is at least as good as skipping. But because MAP is adaptive, a string of careless guesses can drop the difficulty enough to hurt the final RIT score. Take each question seriously, even if you have to estimate.

How should we prepare at home?

Two habits move the needle most: (1) full-length mixed-topic practice sets in test-day conditions; (2) careful review of every miss, naming the concept involved. Quality of review beats raw quantity every time.

Are calculators allowed on 7th grade MAP?

It depends on the district. NWEA lets schools enable or disable the on-screen calculator. Most 7th grade MAP implementations allow a basic calculator for some items but not others — ask your teacher to confirm.

How is a percent of change calculated?

Percent of change equals the change divided by the original, times 100. A price moving from 50 to 65 has a change of 15, so the percent of change is 15/50 = 0.30, or a 30% increase. Always divide by the original (starting) value.

How do MAP scores compare across grade levels?

Because RIT is an equal-interval scale that spans grades, you can compare a 7th-grade RIT to a 6th-grade or 8th-grade RIT directly. NWEA publishes norms tables showing typical scores at each grade and the typical growth between testing seasons.

What does the MAP report show me?

You see the overall RIT, percentile rank, projected growth, and a breakdown by sub-area (operations, real number system, geometry, statistics and probability). The sub-scores point to the topics that need attention most.
