A crate can hold 20 kilograms of tomatoes. Tommy has 3 crates which he bought for $330. He wants to sell the tomatoes for $6 per 1 kilogram but 3 kilograms of tomatoes were rotten. How much will be Tommy's profit from selling those tomatoes?
null

Tommy has a total of 20 x 3 = <<20*3=60>>60 kilograms of tomatoes. Only 60 - 3 = <<60-3=57>>57 kilograms can be sold. His earnings for the tomatoes will be $<<342=342>>342. Thus, his profit will be $342 - $330 = $<<342-330=12>>12. #### 12

Compare the motion of three speedboats. Which speedboat was moving at the lowest speed?
[ "a speedboat that moved 505kilometers west in 10hours", "a speedboat that moved 465kilometers south in 10hours", "a speedboat that moved 495kilometers south in 10hours" ]
B
Look at the distance each speedboat moved and the time it took to move that distance. The direction each speedboat moved does not affect its speed. Notice that each speedboat moved for 10 hours. The speedboat that moved 465 kilometers moved the shortest distance in that time. So, that speedboat must have moved at the lowest speed.

A smooth newt has the following traits: It spends part of its life in water and part on land. It has moist skin. It makes eggs with no shells. A smooth newt does not have all of the traits of a reptile. A smooth newt is an amphibian. A box turtle has the following traits: It has scaly, waterproof skin. It makes eggs with shells. A box turtle has the traits of a reptile. A box turtle is a reptile.

Let c be the number of cucumbers and t the number of tomatoes. The total is the sum of the number of cucumbers and that of tomatoes, which is c + t = 280 piece of vegetables Since there are thrice as many tomatoes as cucumbers, this means c =t/3 Therefore 3*c = t. The sum will therefore be c + 3*c = 280 pieces of vegetables This means that 4*c = 280 vegetables Therefore c = 280/4 = <<280/4=70>>70 cucumbers. #### 70

[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs." ]
A
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 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

Alexis has four times as many mangoes as Dilan and Ashley combined. If Alexis has 60 mangoes, how many mangoes does all of them have combined?
null
75
If Alexis has four times the combined number of mangoes Dilan and Ashley has, then they both have 60 mangoes/4 =15 mangoes The total number of mangoes for all of them is 15 mangoes + 60 mangoes = <<15+60=75>>75 mangoes #### 75

Based on this information, what is Moxie's phenotype for the coat pattern trait?
[ "solid coloring", "white spots" ]
B
Moxie's genotype for the coat pattern gene is aa. Moxie's genotype of aa has only a alleles. The a allele is for white spots. So, Moxie's phenotype for the coat pattern trait must be white spots. To check this answer, consider whether Moxie's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for solid coloring (A) is dominant over the allele for white spots (a). This means A is a dominant allele, and a is a recessive allele. Moxie's genotype of aa has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Moxie's phenotype for the coat pattern trait must be white spots.

Ben spends 20% of his after-tax income on his car. If his car payment is $400 and he pays 1/3 of his gross income in taxes, how much does he make per month before taxes?
null
3000
First divide that amount of the car payment by 20% to find Ben's after-tax salary: $400 / .2 = $<<400/.2=2000>>2000 Then find the proportion of his salary Ben keeps after taxes by subtracting the tax rate from 1: 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 Then divide Ben's after-tax salary by the proportion of his salary he keeps to find his before-tax salary: $2000 / 2/3 = $3000 #### 3000

Sarah walked to school carrying a bag containing 25 apples. At school, she gave each teacher she saw an apple. She also gave a single apple to each of 5 of her closest friends. And while she walked home, she also ate one of the apples. If she had three apples left in the bag when she got home, how many apples had she given away to teachers?
null
16
Of her original 25 apples, Sarah gave five to friends, meaning she has no more than 25-5=<<25-5=20>>20 apples available to give to teachers. She ate one while walking home, meaning she had no more than 20-1=<<20-1=19>>19 apples available to give to teachers. And since she had three apples remaining when she got home, then the amount she had given to teachers was 19-3=<<19-3=16>>16 apples. #### 16

Will these magnets attract or repel each other?
[ "attract", "repel" ]
A
To predict if these magnets will attract or repel, look at which poles are closest to each other. The south pole of one magnet is closest to the north pole of the other magnet. Opposite poles attract. So, these magnets will attract each other.
