Sample Practice Test Questions

Math Knowledge

Solve for b:
b2 - 5b - 6 = 0

-1 or 6

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

b2 - 5b - 6 = 0
(b + 1)(b - 6) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (b + 1) or (b - 6) must equal zero:

If (b + 1) = 0, b must equal -1
If (b - 6) = 0, b must equal 6

So the solution is that b = -1 or 6

Mechanical Comprehension
lengthen the ramp

Which of the following will increase the mechanical advantage of this inclined plane?

lengthen the ramp

The mechanical advantage (MA) of an inclined plane is the effort distance divided by the resistance distance. In order to increase mechanical advantage, this ratio must increase which means making the effort distance longer and this can be accomplished by lengthening the length of the ramp.

Word Knowledge
Helen will only accept something of comparable value for her ticket to the concert.
akin
Similar, equivalent.
Mechanical Comprehension
3 ft. If the green arrow in this diagram represents 420 ft⋅lb of work, how far will the box move if it weighs 140 pounds?
3 ft.
The Law of Work states that the work put into a machine is equal to the work received from the machine under ideal conditions. In equation form, that's:

Win = Wout
Feffort x deffort = Fresistance x dresistance

In this problem, the effort work is 420 ft⋅lb and the resistance force is 140 lbs. and we need to calculate the resistance distance:

Win = Fresistance x dresistance
420 ft⋅lb = 140 lbs. x dresistance
dresistance = \( \frac{420ft⋅lb}{140 lbs.} \) = 3 ft.

Automotive Information

A vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by:

fuses and circuit breakers

The lighting system consists of interior lights, instrument panel lighting, headlights, and taillights. Like household electrical circuits, the vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by fuses and circuit breakers.

Word Knowledge
Parity most nearly means:
sameness
Equality.
General Science

What prevents blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart?

valves

The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.

Word Knowledge
Sadie's cowboy hat was incongruous with her black cocktail dress.
inappropriate
Not harmonious, incompatible.
General Science

Traits represented by genes may be which of the following?

all of these

The traits represented by genes are inherited independently of each other  (one from the male and one from the female gamete) and a trait can be dominant or recessive.  A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with a recessive trait while two copies of a recessive trait (one from each parent) must be present for the recessive trait to be expressed.

General Science

In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.

ventricle, atrium

The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
