Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

Which of these is not a recognized blood type?

AO

Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.

Arithmetic Reasoning

If \( \left|x + 9\right| \) - 3 = 7, which of these is a possible value for x?

-19

First, solve for \( \left|x + 9\right| \):

\( \left|x + 9\right| \) - 3 = 7
\( \left|x + 9\right| \) = 7 + 3
\( \left|x + 9\right| \) = 10

The value inside the absolute value brackets can be either positive or negative so (x + 9) must equal + 10 or -10 for \( \left|x + 9\right| \) to equal 10:

x + 9 = 10
x = 10 - 9
x = 1
x + 9 = -10
x = -10 - 9
x = -19

So, x = -19 or x = 1.

Automotive Information

Which of the following is not a common vehicle cylinder arrangement?

vertical

Cylinder number and arrangement depends on the purpose of the engine. Smaller (four and six cylinder) engines in front-wheel drive vehicles often use an inline design which orients cylinders vertically over the crankshaft and aligns them in a row. Other common orientations are a horizontal/opposed design which places cylinders flat facing each other with the crankshaft between them and a V-type design common in six and eight cylinder engines that features one cylinder head per block of cylinders oriented at a 60 to 90 degree angle to each other with the crankshaft at the bottom of the V.

Mechanical Comprehension

Concurrent forces:

pass through a common point

Collinear forces act along the same line of action, concurrent forces pass through a common point and coplanar forces act in a common plane.

Math Knowledge

What is 7a3 + 7a3?

14a3

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

7a3 + 7a3 = 14a3

Mechanical Comprehension
3 What is the mechanical advantage of this inclined plane if the length of the ramp is 24 ft. and the height of the green box is 8 ft.?
3

The mechanical advantage (MA) of an inclined plane is the effort distance divided by the resistance distance. In this case, the effort distance is the length of the ramp and the resistance distance is the height of the green box:

MA = \( \frac{d_e}{d_r} \) = \( \frac{24 ft.}{8 ft.} \) = 3

Word Knowledge
Simone, an expert in African sculpture, was asked to appraise the ambassador's collection of masks.
assess
To evaluate the worth of.
Word Knowledge
Opportune most nearly means:
propitious
Suitable or convenient.
Shop Information

What is a caliper used for?

transferring distances between objects

Calipers are similar to micrometers in shape but instead of measuring distances, calipers are used to transfer distances between objects. An outside caliper is used to transfer outside dimensions while an inside caliper is used to transfer inside distances. A vernier caliper is an extremely precise caliper (down to \({1 \over 1000}\) inch) that allows measuring / transferring either inside or outside dimensions.

General Science

The Sun is a __________-type main-sequence star.

G

The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G2V) but is informally known as a yellow dwarf star. Composed of 73% hydrogen and 25% helium, the hot plasma that makes up the Sun reaches 9,900°F (5,505°C) at the surface. It formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago and makes up 99.86% of the mass in the solar system.
