Compare the motion of two mountain bikers. Which mountain biker was moving at a lower speed?
[ "a mountain biker who moved 175kilometers in 5hours", "a mountain biker who moved 85kilometers in 5hours" ]
B
Look at the distance each mountain biker moved and the time it took to move that distance. One mountain biker moved 85 kilometers in 5 hours. The other mountain biker moved 175 kilometers in 5 hours. Notice that each mountain biker spent the same amount of time moving. The mountain biker who moved 85 kilometers moved a shorter distance in that time. So, that mountain biker must have moved at a lower speed.

What do these two changes have in common? mixing sand and water a sidewalk heating up in the sun
[ "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]
C
Step 1: Think about each change. Mixing sand and water is a physical change. Adding water makes the sand wet. But both the sand and water are still made of the same type of matter as before. A sidewalk heating up in the sun is a physical change. The temperature of the sidewalk goes up, but the sidewalk is still made of the same type of matter. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. A sidewalk getting warm in the sun is caused by heating. But mixing sand and water is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

A
Primary consumers eat producers. So, in a food web, primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers. The grizzly bear has an arrow pointing to it from the bilberry. The bilberry is a producer, so the grizzly bear is a primary consumer. The rough-legged hawk has an arrow pointing to it from the parasitic jaeger. The parasitic jaeger is not a producer, so the rough-legged hawk is not a primary consumer. The barren-ground caribou has an arrow pointing to it from the lichen. The lichen is a producer, so the barren-ground caribou is a primary consumer. The parasitic jaeger has an arrow pointing to it from the brown lemming. The brown lemming is not a producer, so the parasitic jaeger is not a primary consumer.

Mark is buying asphalt to pave a new section of road. The road will be 2000 feet long and 20 feet wide. Each truckload of asphalt will cover 800 square feet of road. If each truckload costs $75, and there's a 20% sales tax, how much will Mark need to pay for asphalt?
null
4500
First, calculate how many square feet of road Mark needs to cover by multiplying the length by the width: 2000 feet * 20 feet = <<2000*20=40000>>40,000 sq ft Then divide the square footage of road by the number of square feet each truckload will cover: 40,000 sq ft / 800 sq ft/truckload = <<40000/800=50>>50 truckloads Now multiply the number of truckloads by the cost per truckload: $75/truckload * 50 truckloads = $<<75*50=3750>>3750 Now calculate the sales tax by multiplying $3750 by 20%: $3750 * .2 = $<<3750*.2=750>>750 Now add the sales tax to the cost of the asphalt to find the total: $750 + $3750 = $<<750+3750=4500>>4500 #### 4500

What is the expected ratio of offspring with a gray body to offspring with a golden body? Choose the most likely ratio.
[ "1:3", "3:1", "0:4", "4:0", "2:2" ]
D
To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a gray body or a golden body, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the body color trait. The question tells you that the b allele, which is for a golden body, is recessive to the B allele, which is for a gray body. A gray body is the dominant allele's version of the body color trait. A guppy with the dominant version of the body color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the body color gene. So, offspring with a gray body must have the genotype BB or Bb. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype BB or Bb. A golden body is the recessive allele's version of the body color trait. A guppy with the recessive version of the body color trait must have only recessive alleles for the body color gene. So, offspring with a golden body must have the genotype bb. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype bb. So, the expected ratio of offspring with a gray body to offspring with a golden body is 4:0. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will always produce offspring with a gray body. This cross is expected to never produce offspring with a golden body.

This means that the school is going to buy 40/10 = <<40/10=4>>4 sets of 10 seats. Therefore, the school will pay a total of $270 x 4 = $<<270*4=1080>>1080 for the new seats #### 1080

James is sitting outside, counting how many people go past him in vehicles. He has counted 52 vehicles so far today. He saw 12 trucks, a couple of buses, twice as many taxis, some motorbikes, and 30 cars. If the trucks held 2 people each, the buses held 15 people each, the taxis held 2 people each, the motorbikes held 1 person each, and the cars held 3 people each, how many passengers has James seen today?
null
156
In the trucks, James saw 12 * 2 = <<12*2=24>>24 people. In the buses, he saw 2 * 15 = <<2*15=30>>30 people. He saw 2 * 2 = <<2*2=4>>4 taxis go past him. Therefore, he saw 4 * 2 = <<4*2=8>>8 people in the taxis. In the cars, he saw 30 * 3 = <<30*3=90>>90 people. Since we know how many vehicles James saw in total, we know that he saw 52 – 12 – 2 – 4 – 30 = <<52-12-2-4-30=4>>4 motorbikes. So, he saw 4 * 1 = <<4*1=4>>4 people on motorbikes. He has therefore seen a total of 24 + 30 + 8 + 90 + 4 = <<24+30+8+90+4=156>>156 people. #### 156

Based on the arrows, which of the following organisms is a consumer?
[ "Arctic fox", "lichen" ]
A
Consumers eat other organisms. So, there are arrows in a food web that point from other organisms to consumers. The lichen does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the lichen is a producer, not a consumer. The Arctic fox has arrows pointing to it from the bilberry and the collared lemming. So, the Arctic fox is a consumer.

Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1." ]
B
Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a smaller distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is greater. There is a smaller distance between the magnets in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.

Ryan owns $48 x 2/3 = $<<48*2/3=32>>32 of the $48. While Leo owns $48 - $32 = $<<48-32=16>>16 of the $48. Leo had $16 + $10 = $<<16+10=26>>26 after Ryan paid him $10. But since he owed Ryan $7, then Leo has $26 - $7 = $<<26-7=19>>19. #### 19

For the second half of the year, Nicki ran a total of 30 * 26 = <<30*26=780>>780 miles. For the entire year, Nicki ran a total of 520 + 780 = <<520+780=1300>>1,300 miles. #### 1300

Reynald is the head of the varsity department, and he bought 145 balls. Twenty were soccer balls. There were five more basketballs than the soccer balls. Twice the number of soccer balls were tennis balls. There were ten more baseballs than the soccer balls, and the rest were volleyballs. How many were volleyballs?
null

There were 20 + 5 = <<20+5=25>>25 basketballs. There were 2 x 20 = <<2*20=40>>40 tennis balls. And, there were 20 + 10 = <<20+10=30>>30 baseballs. So, there were 20 + 25 + 40 + 30 = 115 soccer balls, basketballs, tennis balls and baseball altogether. Therefore, Reynald bought 145 - 115 = <<145-115=30>>30 volleyballs, #### 30
