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 smaller in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1." ]
B
The magnets in Pair 1 attract. The magnets in Pair 2 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them. Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.

What is the expected ratio of offspring with a spotted tail to offspring with an unspotted tail? Choose the most likely ratio.
[ "3:1", "1:3", "0:4", "2:2", "4:0" ]
E
To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a spotted tail or an unspotted tail, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. The question tells you that the I allele, which is for a spotted tail, is dominant over the i allele, which is for an unspotted tail. A spotted tail is the dominant allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the dominant version of the tail spots trait must have at least one dominant allele for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with a spotted tail must have the genotype II or Ii. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype II or Ii. An unspotted tail is the recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the recessive version of the tail spots trait must have only recessive alleles for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with an unspotted tail must have the genotype ii. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ii. So, the expected ratio of offspring with a spotted tail to offspring with an unspotted tail is 4:0. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will always produce offspring with a spotted tail. This cross is expected to never produce offspring with an unspotted tail.

If Lisa has used a total of 800g of packing peanuts and she knows she has sent 3 large orders, how many small orders has Lisa sent?
null
4
In the large orders, Lisa used 3 large orders * 200g of packing peanuts per large order = <<3*200=600>>600g of packing peanuts. The rest of the packing peanuts were used in small orders so there was a total of 800g packing peanuts - 600g of packing peanuts used in large orders = <<800-600=200>>200g of packing peanuts used in small orders. So there must have been 200g of packing peanuts / 50g of packing peanuts per small order = <<200/50=4>>4 small orders. #### 4

A plant supplier was able to sell 20 pieces of orchids for $50 each and 15 pieces potted Chinese money plant for $25. The money he earned was then used to pay his two workers $40 each and to buy new pots worth $150. How much money was left from the plant supplier's earnings?
null
1145
The plant supplier earned $50 x 20 = $<<50*20=1000>>1000 for the orchids. He earned $25 x 15 = $<<25*15=375>>375 for the potted Chinese money plants. So, his total earnings was $1000 + $375 = $<<1000+375=1375>>1375. Then he paid $40 x 2 = $<<40*2=80>>80 to his workers. He used a total of $80 + $150 = $<<80+150=230>>230 for the worker's pay and new pots. Hence, he was left with $1375 - $230 = $<<1145=1145>>1145 from his earnings. #### 1145

An archaeologist discovered three dig sites from different periods in one area. The archaeologist dated the first dig site as 352 years more recent than the second dig site. The third dig site was dated 3700 years older than the first dig site. The fourth dig site was twice as old as the third dig site. The archaeologist studied the fourth dig site’s relics and gave the site a date of 8400 BC. What year did the archaeologist date the second dig site?
null
852
The third dig site was dated from the year 8400 / 2 = <<8400/2=4200>>4200 BC. Thus, the first dig site was dated from the year 4200 - 3700 = <<4200-3700=500>>500 BC. The second dig site was 352 years older, so it was dated from the year 500 + 352 = <<500+352=852>>852 BC. #### 852

The rate for mowing a lawn is $14 per hour. David mowed for 2 hours a day for a week. He then spent half of the money he made from mowing a lawn on a pair of shoes and gave half of the remaining money to his mom. How much money did he have left?
null
49
David got $14/hour x 2 hours/day = $<<14*2=28>>28 per day from mowing. So in a week, he had $28/day x 7 days = $196. A pair of shoes cost $196/2 = $<<196/2=98>>98. David gave his mom $98/2 = $<<98/2=49>>49. The total amount he spent and gave is $98 + $49 = $<<98+49=147>>147. David is left with $196 - $147 = $<<196-147=49>>49. #### 49

Compare the motion of three motorboats. Which motorboat was moving at the lowest speed?
[ "a motorboat that moved 340kilometers north in 5hours", "a motorboat that moved 115kilometers east in 5hours", "a motorboat that moved 280kilometers north in 5hours" ]
B
Look at the distance each motorboat moved and the time it took to move that distance. The direction each motorboat moved does not affect its speed. Notice that each motorboat moved for 5 hours. The motorboat that moved 115 kilometers moved the shortest distance in that time. So, that motorboat must have moved at the lowest speed.

Primary consumers eat producers. So, in a food web, primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers. 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 brown lemming has arrows pointing to it from the bilberry and the bear sedge. The bilberry and the bear sedge are producers, so the brown lemming is a primary consumer. The snowy owl has an arrow pointing to it from the short-tailed weasel. The short-tailed weasel is not a producer, so the snowy owl is not a primary consumer. The bear sedge does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the bear sedge is not a primary consumer.

Mary tried to improve her health by changing her diet, but her weight bounced like a yo-yo. At first, she dropped a dozen pounds. Then, she added back twice the weight that she initially lost. Then, she dropped three times more weight than she initially had lost. But finally, she gained back half of a dozen pounds. If she weighed 99 pounds at the start of her change in diet, what was her final weight, in pounds?
null
81
Since Mary first weighed 99 pounds, after she dropped a dozen pounds she weighed 99-12=<<99-12=87>>87 pounds. Twice the weight she initially lost is 12*2=<<12*2=24>>24 pounds. So, when she added back twice the weight that she initially lost, her weight jumped to 87+24=<<87+24=111>>111 pounds. Three times more than she initially had lost is 12*3=<<12*3=36>>36 pounds. Therefore, when Mary lost 3 times more than she initially lost, her weight dropped to 111-36=<<111-36=75>>75 pounds. Finally, when Mary gained back half of a dozen pounds, her final weight was 75+6=<<75+6=81>>81 pounds. #### 81
