Sample Practice Test Questions
Solve 2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
P: 2 + (7) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
E: 2 + 7 ÷ 5 x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{7}{5} \) x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{10}{5} \) + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31 - 80}{5} \)
\( \frac{-49}{5} \)
-9\(\frac{4}{5}\)
Jennifer scored 73% on her final exam. If each question was worth 4 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Jennifer answer correctly?
Jennifer scored 73% on the test meaning she earned 73% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.73 = 88 points. Each question is worth 4 points so she got \( \frac{88}{4} \) = 22 questions right.
Which of the following statements about solding is not true?
soldering can only join metals
Soldering is a process by which two or more items (typically metal) are joined together by melting a filler metal (solder) into the joint. An electrically powered soldering iron or soldering gun is used to melt the solder which is an alloy of lead and tin that has a melting point below the melting point of the items being joined. A chemical cleaning agent called flux is also used to clean the surfaces before soldering.
Which of the following is not a component in the engine lubrication system?
differential
In engine lubrication, oil remains in the oil pan until the engine is turned on. It then gets sucked up the pickup tube by the oil pump and pressurized. This pressure is moderated by the pressure relief valve and the oil is fed through the oil filter into the engine to lubricate it.
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
A fixed pulley is useful for which of the following?
changing the direction of the input force
A fixed pulley is used to change the direction of a force and does not multiply the force applied. As such, it has a mechanical advantage of one. The benefit of a fixed pulley is that it can allow the force to be applied at a more convenient angle, for example, pulling downward or horizontally to lift an object instead of upward.
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by what kind of bond?
chemical
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In covalent compounds, electrons are shared between atoms. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
If BD = 22 and AD = 29, AB = ?
The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:
AD = AB + BD
Solving for AB:AB = AD - BD
