参考答案
1.Correct Answer: 28
Explanation:
The positive integer factors of 21 are: 1,12,2,4,3,6
Their sum is 28
2.Correct Answer: 125
Explanation:
If the average of four is 110, the total = 4 x 110 = 440
The sum of three with IQ 105 = 315
The fourth person must have IQ = 440 - 315 = 125
3.Correct Answer: 36
Explanation:
If 2/3 of the class of 60 are girls (=40), 1/3 must be boys (=20)
2/5 of the class (=24) are taking music.
The maximum number of girls not taking music will be when all the boys take music.
If all 20 boys take music, then only 4 girls need to take it, so 36 girls do not take music lessons.
4.Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
8 is 2 raised to the power of 3
3 = n + 1; n =2
5.Correct Answer: 84
Explanation:
In triangle ABC angles CAB and CBA are equal (isosceles triangle). And both are 28.
Angle ACD = 56 (exterior angle = sum of two opp. interior angles)
Angles ACD and CDA are equal (isosceles triangle)
Angle DAC = 180 - 112 = 68
The angle marked x = 180 - 68 - 28 = 84
6.Correct Answer: 7/2
Explanation:
The antifreeze in the initial fuel mixture is 1/6 of one gallon.
The added mixture contains 1/3 of half a gallon = 1/6 of a gallon
The final mixture contains 1/6 + 1/6 in 1.5 gallon
2/6 antifreeze in total 9/6 gallons
Fuel in the mixture is 9/6 - 2/6 = 7/6
Ratio fuel to antifreeze = 7/6 : 2/6 = 7 : 2
Grid in as 7/2
7.Correct Answer: 603
Explanation:
When O completes 335 revolutions it will have turned through 335 x 360 degrees.
At a rate of 5 degrees per second this means 335x 360 /5 seconds
P will have turned through 9 x 335 x 360 /5 degrees in the same time
Now divide by 360 to get complete revolutions = 9 x 335 / 5 = 603
8.Correct Answer: 972
Explanation:
Volume of one cube = 1458/2 = 729; the cube root will give the side of each cube.
The cube root of this = 9 (If you do not spot this you can find the prime factors then you will see the cube root is 9)
If the side of the cube =9, the area of one face = 81. There are six faces so the surface area = 6 x 81 =486
But there are two cubes so the total surface is 2 x 486 =972
9.Correct Answer: 3/8
Explanation:
n can take four different values, each of which can be combined with the four possible values for p. This gives us 16 possible pairs.
Now find out how many of these pairs can give a value for n/2p which is in set P.#p#分页标题#e#
If n = 12 and p = 2 the expression gives 12/4 = 3 which is in set P. Similarly n=12 and p = 3 works out to 2, which is in the set.
With n = 18, p can be 3. With n = 2, p can be 1. With n = 6, p can be 1, or 3
This gives us 6 pairs out of 16 = 3/8
10.Correct Answer: 54
Explanation:
First find n by finding f(3);
f(3) = (12-3)3/2 = 93/2 = √93 =√(9x9x9) = √9 x √9 x √9 = 27
But we are asked for 2n; 2n = 54
