$49.99 Satisfied 188 Students ## Answers: 1- B Use the formula of areas of circles. Area of a circle = $$πr^2→64 π=πr^2→64=r^2→r=8$$ The radius of the circle is 8. Now, use the circumference formula: Circumference $$= 2πr = 2π (8) = 16π$$ 2- C $$x+4y=10$$ $$5x+10y=20$$ Multiply the top equation by -5 then, $$-5x-20y=-50$$ $$5x+10y=20$$ Add two equations $$-10y=-30→y=3$$ plug in the value of y into the first equation $$x+4y=10→x+4(3)=10→x+12=10$$ Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation. Then: $$x+12=10→x=-2$$ 3- A $$6b=5a\sqrt3→b= \frac{5a\sqrt3}{6}$$ $$Therefore:$$ $$\frac{2b\sqrt3}{4a}=\frac{2× \frac{5a\sqrt3}{6}×\sqrt3}{4a}=\frac{2×5a×3}{4×6a}=\frac{5}{4}$$ 4- D $$\frac{2}{5} ×25= \frac{50}{5} =10$$ 5- D The slop of line A is: $$\frac{y_{2} – y_{1}}{x_{2} – x_{1}} = \frac{3-2}{4-3}=1$$ Parallel lines have the same slope and only choice $$D (y=x)$$ has slope of 1. 6- A Line AB is the best fit line. Then, point (6,1) is the farthest from line AB. 7- B Choices $$A, C$$ and $$D$$ are incorrect because $$80\%$$ of each of the numbers is a non-whole number. $$49, 80 \% \ of \ 49 = 0.80×49=39.2$$ $$35, 80 \% \ of \ 35=0.80×35=28$$ $$12, 80 \% \ of \ 12=0.80×12=9.6$$ $$32, 80 \% \ of \ 32=0.80×32=25.6$$ 8- A Let $$x$$ be equal to 0.5, then: $$x = 0.5$$ $$\sqrt{(x^2+1)}=\sqrt{(0.5^2+1)}=\sqrt{1.25}≈1.12$$ $$\sqrt{(x^2 )+1}=\sqrt{(0.5^2 )}+1=0.5+1=1.5$$ Then, option A is correct. $$x<\sqrt{(x^2+1)}<\sqrt{(x^2 )}+1$$ 9- C $$x$$ is directly proportional to the square of $$y$$. Then: $$x=cy^2$$ $$12=c(2)^2→12=4c→c=\frac{12}{4}=3$$ The relationship between $$x$$ and y is: $$x=3y^2$$ $$x=75$$ $$75= 3y^2 →y^2 = \frac{75}{3} = 25→y=5$$ 10- D The amount of money that jack earns for one hour: $$\frac{616}{44} =14$$ Number of additional hours that he work to make enough money is: $$\frac{826-616}{1.5×14}=10$$Number of total hours is: $$44 + 10 = 54$$ ## College Entrance Tests Looking for the best resource to help you succeed on the PSAT Math test? ## The Best Books to Ace the PSAT Math Test$18.99
