Grace and Rohan are organizing a small gathering. They have 5² - 10 candies, and they want to divide them equally among 5 gift bags. Then, they plan to multiply the number of candies in each bag by 2³ to ensure everyone gets enough. How many candies will each gift bag contain after multiplying?

• 0

• 18

• 24

• 40

Answer explanation

Kavion and Kayla have 5^2 - 10 = 15 candies. Dividing by 5 gift bags gives 3 candies per bag. Multiplying by 2^3 (which is 8) results in 3 * 8 = 24 candies per bag. However, the correct answer is 18, indicating a miscalculation in the problem setup.

Corey is organizing a charity event and needs to create gift bags. Each gift bag contains \( 25x - 10y \) items, where \( x \) represents candies and \( y \) represents small toys. Which expression is equivalent to the total number of items in each gift bag?

• 5(5x - 2y)

• 5(5x - 10y)

• 5(20x - 5y)

• 5(20x - 10y)

Answer explanation

To simplify 25x - 10y, factor out the greatest common factor, which is 5. This gives us 5(5x - 2y). Thus, the correct expression for the total number of items in each gift bag is 5(5x - 2y).

Answer explanation

Kayla's answer of \(\frac{3}{8}\) is correct because to solve for \(m\), you divide \(\frac{1}{4}\) by \(\frac{2}{3}\), which gives you \(\frac{3}{8}\). Corey's answer is incorrect.

• 5

• 8

• 10

• 12

Answer explanation

To find the number of sections, convert 2 1/2 feet to an improper fraction: 2 1/2 = 5/2 feet. Then divide by 1/4 foot: (5/2) ÷ (1/4) = (5/2) * (4/1) = 10. Thus, Kayla will get 10 sections.

Stacey pays $300 each month to rent an office where she earns $25 per hour tutoring students. Which equation represents Stacey’s profit, y, for working x hours?

• y = 25 + 300x

• y = 25x + 300

• y = 25 - 300x

• y = 25x - 300

Answer explanation

Kavion's profit, y, is calculated by subtracting his monthly rent from his earnings. He earns $25 per hour for x hours, so the equation is y = 25x - 300, not y = 25x + 300. The correct choice is y = 25x - 300.
