  1. A savings account uses simple interest. A student deposits $400 at 5%5\% simple interest per year for 3 years. How much interest will they earn?
  2. Which expression is NOT equivalent to 3x+2x+4x3x + 2x + 4x?
  3. A student is trying to explain why 34×25=620\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{5} = \frac{6}{20}. Which visual representation would BEST help communicate the reasoning behind multiplying fractions?
  4. A student council wants to predict the winner of a school election between candidates Martinez and Chen. They conduct three random surveys of 40 students each. Survey 1 shows Martinez leading 24-16, Survey 2 shows Chen leading 23-17, and Survey 3 shows Martinez leading 22-18. What conclusion is most appropriate?
  5. A rectangular pyramid is sliced by a vertical plane that passes through the apex and the midpoint of one side of the base. What 2D shape is the cross-section?
  6. A recipe calls for a ratio of flour to sugar of 3:23:2. Jake wants to represent this relationship using three different methods: a table showing equivalent ratios, the equation f=32sf = \frac{3}{2}s where ff is flour and ss is sugar, and a coordinate graph. If Jake uses 66 cups of flour, which representation would most clearly show that he needs exactly 44 cups of sugar?
  7. A garden bed is shaped like a trapezoid with parallel sides measuring 1818 feet and 1414 feet. If the height is 88 feet, how much greater is this area compared to a rectangular garden with dimensions 1212 feet by 1010 feet?
  8. To estimate the proportion of all students in a grade (the population) who have a reusable water bottle, three random samples of 40 students are taken. Sample results: Sample 1: 24 out of 40, Sample 2: 26 out of 40, Sample 3: 22 out of 40. Which statement best describes the estimates and their variability?
  9. A water tank fills at a constant rate. After 3 minutes, there are 45 gallons. After 7 minutes, there are 105 gallons. What is the unit rate in gallons per minute, and which representation correctly shows this relationship?
  10. A circular garden has an area of 36π m236\pi\text{ m}^2. What is the garden's radius?
  11. A game involves rolling a number cube (1-6) and flipping a coin. According to the sample space table shown, what is the total number of outcomes where the number rolled is greater than 4 AND the coin shows Heads?
  12. To find the total cost of buying 7 items, which approach best demonstrates systematic problem analysis?
  13. Two different number cubes labeled 1-6 are rolled. Event FF is: "Both numbers are odd." How many outcomes are in FF?
  14. Use the table shown to answer the question. In a survey of 120 students about their favorite subjects, what is the probability that a randomly selected student who likes Math also likes Science?
  15. A rectangular pyramid is sliced by a plane that is parallel to the base. Which statement best describes the cross-section?
  16. A bag contains only red and blue marbles. A student draws one marble, replaces it, and repeats this 200 times. The student draws a red marble 92 times. Based on the data, what is the best estimate for P(red)P(\text{red})?
  17. Two science classes measured the length (in cm) of the same kind of leaf. Class 1: 8, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12 Class 2: 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 13 The mean length for Class 1 is 1010 cm and for Class 2 is 1111 cm. Both classes have a MAD of 1.51.5 cm. About how many MADs apart are the means, and what does that suggest about overlap?
  18. Examine the histogram below showing the distribution of student heights in centimeters. If a student's height places them in the interval containing exactly 25% of all students, what is the probability that a randomly selected student from this specific interval is taller than 155 cm?
  19. Which expression is equivalent to 5(x−25)+3x5\left(x-\frac{2}{5}\right)+3x after simplifying?​
  20. Sarah's bank account had a balance of $42.50. She wrote a check for $67.25. To find her new balance using subtraction as adding the additive inverse, which calculation should she perform?
