What do these two changes have in common? dust settling out of the air a puddle freezing into ice on a cold night
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]
B
Step 1: Think about each change. Dust settling out of the air is a physical change. As the dust settles, or falls, it might land on furniture or the ground. This separates dust particles from the air, but does not form a different type of matter. A puddle freezing into ice on a cold night is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. Liquid water freezes and becomes solid, but it is still made of water. A different type of matter is not formed. 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. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. A puddle freezing is caused by cooling. But dust settling out of the air is not.

Bernie loves eating chocolate. He buys two chocolates every week at the local store. One chocolate costs him $3. In a different store, there is a long-term promotion, during which each chocolate costs only $2. How much would Bernie save in three weeks, if he would buy his chocolates in this store instead of his local one?
null
6
During three weeks, Bernie buys 3 * 2 = <<3*2=6>>6 chocolates. In the local store, he pays for them 6 * 3 = $<<6*3=18>>18. If Bernie would buy the same chocolates in the different store, he would pay 6 * 2 = $<<6*2=12>>12. So Bernie would be able to save 18 - 12 = $<<18-12=6>>6. #### 6

Let X be the price of the shirt. The price of the coat is X*3. The total amount is X + X*3 = $600. Combining like terms, we get X*4 = $600. Dividing both sides by 4, we get X = $600 / 4 = $<<600/4=150>>150. #### 150

Through March, Dr. Banks gave out 53 + 67 + 46 = <<53+67+46=166>>166 toothbrushes. Before giving away toothbrushes in April, he had 330 -166 = <<330-166=164>>164 toothbrushes remaining. Between April and May, he gave out the remaining 164 / 2 = <<164/2=82>>82 toothbrushes each month. Dr. Banks gave 82 toothbrushes in his busiest month and 46 toothbrushes during the slowest month. The difference would be 82- 46 = <<82-46=36>>36 more toothbrushes in the busiest month. #### 36

The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample B has more mass than each particle in sample A. So, the particles in sample B have a higher average kinetic energy than the particles in sample A. Because the particles in sample B have the higher average kinetic energy, sample B must have the higher temperature.

Based on this information, what is Fishie's phenotype for the body color trait?
[ "a gray body", "a golden body" ]
B
Fishie's genotype for the body color gene is bb. Fishie's genotype of bb has only b alleles. The b allele is for a golden body. So, Fishie's phenotype for the body color trait must be a golden body. To check this answer, consider whether Fishie's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for a golden body (b) is recessive to the allele for a gray body (B). This means B is a dominant allele, and b is a recessive allele. Fishie's genotype of bb has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Fishie's phenotype for the body color trait must be a golden body.

If Pete walks on hands at 1/4 what Tracy can do 1-handed cartwheels, then Tracy can do 1-handed cartwheels at 2*4=8 miles per hour.

The second neighborhood uses 150 * 2 = <<150*2=300>>300 barrels of water. The third neighborhood uses 300 + 100 = <<300+100=400>>400 barrels of water. The first, second, and third neighborhoods together use 150 + 300 + 400 = <<150+300+400=850>>850 barrels of water. Thus, the fourth neighborhood has 1200 - 850 = <<1200-850=350>>350 barrels of water left for it to use. #### 350

Isabelle’s parents bought a new television for $480. The seller gives them a 5% discount. They pay a first installment of $150 and will pay the rest in 3 monthly installments. What is the amount of a monthly payment?
null

The television discount is $480 x 5/100 = $<<480*5/100=24>>24. So, the television price is $480 - $24 = $<<480-24=456>>456. The outstanding balance is $456 – $150 = $<<456-150=306>>306 The monthly payment is $306 / 3 = $<<306/3=102>>102 #### 102

What do these two changes have in common? saliva breaking down a piece of bread silver jewelry tarnishing
[ "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are caused by heating." ]
A
Step 1: Think about each change. Saliva breaking down a piece of bread is a chemical change. Bread is made up mostly of a chemical called starch. Saliva breaks the bonds between atoms in the starch molecules. The atoms then link together to form smaller, simpler molecules of sugar. The sugar is a different type of matter than the starch. Metal turning less shiny over time is called tarnishing. Silver jewelry tarnishing is a chemical change. The silver reacts with sulfur in the air to form black tarnish. The tarnish is a different type of matter that was not there before the change. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

To describe the average temperature trends in Tokyo, look at the graph. Choice "Feb" is incorrect. Choice "Aug" is incorrect. Choice "Sep" is incorrect. Choice "Oct" is incorrect. Choice "Nov" is incorrect. Choice "Jan" is incorrect. The average temperatures in January and February are around 5°C. These months have the lowest average temperatures of all of the months. So, they are the coldest months of the year.

A truck driver has to spend $2 per gallon of gas. She can drive 10 miles per gallon. She drives at a rate of 30 miles per hour. If she is paid $.50 per mile, how much money does she make if she drives for 10 hours?
null
90
The truck driver drives for 10 hours at 30 miles per hour, so she drives 10*30=<<10*30=300>>300 miles. Therefore, she needs 300/10=<<300/10=30>>30 gallons of gas. This will cost her 30*$2=$<<30*2=60>>60. She will make 300*$.50= $<<300*.50=150>>150. Thus, after paying for gas, she will make $150-$60=$<<150-60=90>>90. #### 90
