Praxis 5901 Math- Questions and Answers 100% SolvedWhich of the following is a statistical question? Select all that apply. A. What is the daily high
temperature for an August day in Cheyenne, Wyoming. B. How many speeches did George
Washington make during his life? C. How many minutes did Hannah spend talking on her
phone on August 28, 2016? D. What is the average number of miles a week run by the
members of the Hereford High School cross country team last month? Correct Ans-D. What
is the average number of miles a week run by the members of the Hereford High School cross
country team last month.
Which word describes each angle in a equilateral triangle? A. Acute B. Obtuse C. Right D.
Straight Correct Ans-A. Acute
Equilateral triangle Correct Ans-All angles have the same measure. 180 divide by 3 = 60
Acute angle Correct Ans-Measures less than 90 degrees, therefore all the angles of an
equilateral triangle are all acute.
Lily, Mathew, Natalie, and Owen each walked from their homes to the mall. Lily walked 1/4
mile, Matthew walked 3/8 mile, Natalie walked 5/6 mile, and Owen walked 7/12 mile. Which
list shows these distances in order from least to greatest? A. Lily, Matthew, Natalie, Owen. B.
Lily, Matthew, Owen, Natalie. C. Lily, Natalie, Matthew, Owen. D. Owen, Matthew, Natalie,
Lily. Correct Ans-B. The question requires an understanding of how to compare, classify,
and order rational numbers. The distances can be ordered by rewriting all fractions as
equivalent fractions with the common denominator 24. Since 1/4=6/24, 3/8=9/24, 5/6=
20/24, and 7/12= 14/24, the correct order from least to greatest is

At an apple orchard, between 280 to 300 bushels of apples are picked each day during peak
harvest season. There are between 42 and 48 pounds of apples in each bushel. Which of the
following could be the number of pounds of apples picked at the orchard in one day during
peak harvest season? A. 9,000 B. 11,000 C. 13,000 D. 15,000 Correct Ans-C. 13,000.
Reason: 300x38= 14,400 300x42=12,600
Which phrase describes the solution set to the inequality 18b-5 <20b+11? A All numbers that
are less than -8. B. All numbers that are greater than -8. C. All numbers that are less than 8. D.
All numbers that are greater than 8. Correct Ans-B.All numbers that are greater than -8.
The question requires an understanding of how to interpret solutions to multi step one-
variable linear equations and inequalities. The first step to find the solution set of the
inequality is to use the addition property of inequality to add -20b+5 to both sides of the
inequality. This yields 18b-5-20b+5. The second step is to add like terms. This yields -2b<16.
The third step is to use the multiplication property of inequality to multiply both sides by -
1/2. One must not forget to flip the direction of the inequality sign when multiplying by a
negative number. This yields (-1/2) (-2b)>(-1/2) (16), which is equivalent to b>-8. The solution
set to to inequality 18b-5<20b+11 is the set of all numbers that are greater than -8.
What is the prime factorization of 3,780? A. 2x5x6x7x9. B. 3x4x5x7x9. C. 2x3x6x7x15. D.
2x2x3x3x3x5x7 Correct Ans-D. 2x2x3x3x3x5x7
(2x+5x-2) - (x+y-3y-5x+2) Which of the following is equivalent to the preceding expression? A.
11x+2y-4. B. 3x-2y-4. C. 11x-2y. D. X-2y Correct Ans-A. The question requires an
understanding of how to add and subtract linear algebraic expressions. Adding terms in the

given expressions yields the equivalent expression (7x-2) - (-4x-2y +2), which is equivalent to
7x-2 +4x +2y-2. Adding like terms again yields 11x +2y-4.
What value does the 8 represent in the number 5,836,303? A. Eight hundred B. Eight
Thousand C. Eighty Thousand D. Eight hundred thousand Correct Ans-D. Eight hundred
thousand
Box plot Correct Ans-A graph that gives you a good indication of how the values in the
data are spread out. A graphical rendition of statistical data based on the minimum, first
quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.
What is the least common multiple of 12, 20 and 30? A. 2. B. 60. C. 240. D. 360 Correct
Ans-B. The question requires an understanding of how to find factors and multiples of
numbers. The prime factorization of 12 is 2Squared x 3, the prime factorization of 20 is
2Squared x 5, and the prime factorization of 30 is 2x3x5. Therefore, the least common
multiple of the three numbers is 2 squared x3 x5, or 60.

Population: A. Brookhaven 74,702 B. Columbus 70,472 C. Davidson 74, 072. D. Washington
74,720. Queen lives in the county with a population of 70,000 + 4,000+ 70 + 2. In which county
does Queen live? Correct Ans-C. Davidson
Which of the following is an algebraic expression? A. 6x-4 B. 6y<4 C. 6z=4. D. 6+4 Correct
Ans-A. The question requires an understanding of how to differentiate between algebraic
