1- C
Let $$x$$ be the number. Write the equation and solve for $$x.(24-x)÷x=3$$ Multiply both sides by $$x. (24-x) =3x$$, then add $$x$$ both sides. $$24=4x$$, now divide both sides by $$4. x=6$$

2- A
The sum of supplement angles is 180. Let $$x$$ be that angle. Therefore, (x+9x =180,10x=180\), divide both sides by $$10: x=18$$

3- C
The average speed of john is: $$150÷6=25$$ km, The average speed of Alice is: $$160÷4=40$$ km.Write the ratio and simplify. $$25∶40 ⇒ 5:8$$

4- C
$$7×10=70$$, Petrol use: $$10×2=20$$ liters. Petrol cost: $$20×1=20$$
Money earned: $$70-20=50$$

5- C
average $$=\frac{sum \ of \ terms}{number \ of \ terms}=\frac{12+ 13+7+21+22}{5} = \frac{75}{5} =15$$

6- C
Let x be the original price. If the price of the sofa is decreased by $$15\%$$ to \$476, then: $$85\%$$ of $$x=476 ⇒ 0.85x=476 ⇒ x=476÷0.85=560$$

7- D
Use Pythagorean Theorem: $$a^2+b^2=c^2, 9^2+12^2= c^2 ⇒ 81+144=c^2⇒ 225=c^2⇒c=15$$

8- A
The percent of girls playing tennis is: $$40\%×25\% =0.40×0.25=0.10=10\%$$

9- A
Area of the circle is less than $$12 π$$. Use the formula of areas of circles. Area $$=πr^2 ⇒$$
$$36 π> πr^2⇒ 36>r^2⇒ r<6$$. Radius of the circle is less than 6. Let’s put 6 for the radius. Now, use the circumference formula: Circumference $$=2πr=2π (6)=12 π$$
Since the radius of the circle is less than 6. Then, the circumference of the circle must be less than $$12 π$$. Only choice A is less than $$12 π$$.

10- C
$$\begin{cases}x+4y=10 \\ 5x+10y=10\end{cases}\rightarrow$$ Multiply the top equation by $$-5$$ then,
$$\begin{cases}-5x-20y=-50 \\ 5x+10y=10\end{cases}\rightarrow$$ Add two equations
$$-10y=-40→y=4$$ , plug in the value of y into the first equation
$$x+4y=10→x+4(4)=10→x+16=10$$
Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation. Then: $$x+16=10→x=-6$$
