1)

ANSWER:

		x - Distance of Uphill
		Y - Distance of Downhill
		Z - Distance Level Ground

	Total walking time=6=(x/2+y/6+z/3)+(x/6+y/2+z/3)(This is used for
        her walking back --- uphill turns to down hill and downhill turns 
        to uphill) 
        6(x/2+y/6+z/3+y/2+x/6+z/3)=36
	36=4(x+y+z)

	===> x+y+z=36/4=9  ====> She walks 18km in total.



2)

ANSWER:

Area of half Circle

	Area of radius 2->
					A=Pi*r2	Pi/2 = Pi/2
					=Pi (1)2
					=Pi
	Area of little circle.
					A=Pi2
					=Pi(.5)2
					=Pi(.23)
					=Pi/4
							
					Pi/4 * 1/2 = Pi/8
					Pi/2 - Pi/8 = area of one
					4Pi/8 - Pi/8 = 3Pi/8
					3Pi/8 * 2 = 6Pi/8 = 3Pi/4 m2


3)

ANSWER:

		Area of large circle
			A=Pi*r2
			 =Pi(1.5)2
		 	 =2.25Pi

		2.25Pi - area shaded = 2.25Pi - .75(Pi)m2
     	       		 = 3Pi/2m2


4)

ANSWER:

	Volume of the water = 

	Volume of 1/2 of tank = 1/2 100cm * 40cm * 60cm
	= 120,000

	1/2 (120,000) = 60,000

	60,000 = 100 cm * 60 cm * d
	10 cm = d


5)

ANSWER:

  ->250m ahead
Let x = time for Alex to finish
Let t = time for Fred to finish
	        Alex		Fred		Thomas
---------------------------------------------------
dist at x   	1000m	        800m		600m


Speed   	1000m/x	        800m/x  	600m/x
	
Find the time it will take Fred to finish
	200m/speed(Fred)=t
	200m / 800m / x
        200 * x / 800 = t
	x/4 = t
How far can Thomas go in that time(Fred was 200 ahead and will go antoher 200)	
	t*speed(Thomas)
	600m/x * x/4 = 150m in that time

	400 - 150 = 250m
        Thomas has 200m left to go.

8)

Answer:

			42 + 32 = c2
			16 + 9 = c2
			25 = c2
			c = 5

			(2 * 4) + (2 * 3) + (4 * 5) = 34


9)

ANSWER:	
	Let the number of girls or boys = x
        2(x-8) = x
        2x - 16 = x
        x=16
        There are 2x students in the class, therefore there are 32 students.


10)

ANSWER:

Let x = the mark on the eighth exam.
	  56% = .56
          (.56 * 7 + x)/8 = .60
           3.92 + x = .60 * 8
           3.92 + x = 4.80
           x = 4.80-3.92
           x = .88 = 88%

12)

ANSWER:

If 4 or fewer are quarters and the rest dimes and nickels, it wouldn't bring the total to $1.45 with the 4 dimes or nickels.


	5 are quarters -> $1.25

	Other 3 dimes or nickels make up 20 cents.

PROBABILITIES:

	Losing a quarter = 5/8 chances

	Losing a dime  =  1/8

	Losing a nickel = 2/8 = 1/4

Greatest probability -> quarter <- Answer

14)

ANSWER:

	6 students
REASON: If exactly 5 A's were given in the class, then the students who scored these A's saw their own grade. If six A's had been given then each of the A students could have seen the other 5 A's in the class. 6 is the minimum.

17)

ANSWER:

	s - Students
	d - Dollars

	each contributes d/s

	15 don't contribute d/s = 15d/s to be split among s-15 students

	

	(15d/s)/(s - 15)  = 15d/s * 1/s-15
	
	15d/(s2 - 15s) each student must contirbute this amount extra


18)

ANSWER:

Can't be in row b or d
Not divisible by 4 -> therefore not in c

	 2 + 8x = 1002		        6 + 8x = 1002
	     8x = 1000			     x = 124.5 <- not a whole #
 	      x = 125

 			Therefore 1002 lies in a.

20)

ANSWER:

	
	X2 = (1)2 + (1)2
	X = 21/2

	21/2/2 = BD

	(21/2/2)2 + (BD),sup>2 = 1m2

	(BD)2 = 1 - 1/5
	(BD) = (1/2)1/2
	  m  = .707m

ANSWER:

		a = 1/2bh		b = 8 - 1 = 7

		a = 14 Units2


22)

ANSWER:

	 Bob's speed 

  	 (100km/h)*(1h/3600sec)*(1000m/km) = 27.7778m/sec
	 In 10s Bob travels 10s*27.7778m/sec=277.778m

	 Therefore Melissa must have travelled 277.778 m + 100m = 377.778m
	 Melissa's speed is 377.778m/10s=37.7778m/s
         (37.7778m/s)*(1km/1000m)*(3600s/1h)=136.00km/h
  
	Melissa got a very big speeding ticket.

Answer:

	B


36)

Answer:

	a + 3 = b - 3 = 3c = d/3        
 	Let k equal the number all of them equal

	k = a + 3		k = b - 3		k = 3c	k = d/3

	a = k - 3		b = k + 3		c = k/3	d = 3k


	k - 3 + k + 3 + k/3 + 3k = 64

	5k + k/3 = 64

	16k/3 = 64

	k = 12

	a = 12 - 3 = 9		d = 3(12) = 36
