Question: A bag contains 3 blue and 5 white marbles. One by one, marbles are drawn out randomly until only two are left in the bag. What is the probability Q that out of the two, one is white and one is blue?
Options:
A)15/56
B)41/56
C)13/28
D)15/28
E)5/14
Rationale: The required probability Q= probability of choosing 6 balls out of the total 8 in such a way that we remove 4 out of 5 white and 2 out of 3 blue balls.
Ways to select 6 out of total 8 = 8C6
Ways to select 4 out of 5 white balls = 5C4
Ways to select 2 out of 3 blue balls = 3C2
Thus the required probability = (5C4*3C2)/8C6 = 15/28.
D is thus the correct answer.

Question: y = x^2 + bx + 512 cuts the x axis at (h, 0) and (k, 0). If h and k are integers, what is the least value of b?
Options:
A)-512
B)-257
C)-256
D)-513
E)128
Rationale: As the curve cuts the x-axis at (h,0) and (k,0). Therefore h,k are the roots of the quadratic equation.
For the quadratic equation is in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0,
The product of the roots =c/a= 512/1=256 and the sum of the roots =-b/a=-b
512 can be expressed as product of two numbers in the following ways:
1 * 512
2 * 256
4 * 128
8 * 64
16 *32
The sum of the roots is maximum when the roots are 1 and 256 and the maximum sum is 1 + 512 = 513.
The least value possible for b is therefore -513.

Options:
A)3
B)4
C)6
D)8
E)9
Rationale: Tn = nth term
T1 = 1st term
T2 = 2nd term
and so on...
Sn = Sum of first n terms of the sequence
Sn = 1st term + 2nd term + 3rd term + ... + nth term
Sn = T1 + T2 + T3 + ....Tn
You are given here thatSn is the SUM of first n terms...So you have
Sn = T1 + T2 + T3 + ....Tn = n(n+1)
So S1 = T1
S2 = T1 + T2
S3 = T1 + T2 + T3
and so on
S1 = T1 = 1*(1+1) = 2
S2 = T1 + T2 = 2 + T2 = 2*(2+1) = 6
So T2 = 4
S3 = T1 + T2 + T3 = 2 + 4 + T3 = 3*(3+1) = 12
So T3 = 9
(This is what we wanted)
The third term is 9.

Question: Darcy lives 1.5 miles from work. She can walk to work at a constant rate of 3 miles per hour, or she can ride the train to work at a constant rate of 20 miles per hour. If she rides the train, there is an additional x minutes spent walking to the nearest train station, waiting for the train, and walking from the final train station to her work. If it takes Darcy a total of 25 more minutes to commute to work by walking than it takes her to commute to work by riding the train, what is the value of x?
Options:
A)10.5
B)0.5
C)25.5
D)30
E)60
Rationale: The time it takes Darcy to walk to work is (1.5/3)*60 = 30 minutes
The time it takes Darcy to take the train is (1.5/20)*60 + x = 4.5 + x minutes
It takes 15 minutes longer to walk, so 30 = 4.5 + x + 25
x=0.5 minutes

Question: A freight train starts from Los Angeles and heads for Chicago at 40 mph. Two hours later a
passenger train leaves the same station for Chicago traveling 60 mph. How long before the
passenger train overtakes the freight train?
Options:
A)6hours
B)5hours
C)9ours
D)2hours
E)4 hours
Rationale: Read the problem. It is a time, rate, and distance problem. (Use D=r*t)
The question asks, “how long?” (which means time) for the passenger train.
Let t=the time it takes the passenger train to overtake the freight train
t+2=the number of hours the freight train had traveled when overtaken.
Draw a sketch and make a table.
Time Rate Distance
Freight t+2- 40 mph- 40(t+2)
Passengert- 60 mph-60t
Equation: When the passenger train overtakes the freight train, they have both traveled
the same distance. Write each of their distances in terms of ratetime (as seen in the
table above), then set them equal to each other to create an equation. Then solve the
equation.
40(t+2)=60t
40t+80=60t
80=20t
t=4
The answer: It takes the passenger train 4 hours to overtake the freight train.
Check by substituting 4 into the original equation.
40(4+2)=60(4)
40(6)=240
240=240
true
Thus, 4 hours is the correct answer.

Question: A car drove from Town A to Town B without stopping. The car traveled the first 90 miles of its journey at an average speed of 25 miles per hour. What was the car’s average speed, in miles per hour, for the remaining 70 miles if the car’s average speed for the entire trip was 40 miles per hour?
Options:
A)128
B)148
C)150
D)155
E)175
Rationale: KAPLANOFFICIAL SOLUTION:
To solve this problem, you must remember that average speed means total distance divided by total time over an entire journey. This should not be confused with the average of the speeds. The total distance in this problem is 160 miles, but we will need to express the total time in a more complex way.
For the first 90 miles, the car traveled at 25 miles per hour. Therefore, we can say that the time this took was 90/25, because distance divided by rate equals time.
For the last 70 miles, we are trying to solve for the rate, so we can call this speed R. Thus, the time for the final 70 miles is 70/R.
If we put all of this together, knowing that the average speed over the entire journey is 40 miles per hour, we get the equation 160/(90/25 + 70/R) = 40. We can now solve for R and reach our answer.
160/(90/25 + 70/R) = 40
R = 175 is choice (E) and that’s our correct answer.

Question: In racing over a given distance d at uniform speed, A can beat B by 20 meters, B can beat C by 6 meters, and A can beat C by 23 meters. What is the distance d in meters?
Options:
A)32
B)36
C)40
D)48
E)60
Rationale: When A is at the finish line, B is 20 meters back, and C is 23 meters back.
When B runs another 20 meters to the finish line, C is 6 meters back.
So B gains 3 meters every 20 meters covered.
To gain a final difference of 6 meters, B runs a total of 40 meters.
The answer is C.
Answer: C
Question: A company decreased the price of its main product by 10%. Subsequently, the number of units sold increased such that the total revenue remained unchanged. What was the ratio of the percent increase in the units sold to the percent decrease of the original price for this product?
Options:
A)4.3
B)5.6
C)6.2
D)10.0
E)12.0
Rationale: For the total revenue to remain the same when the price is 1/10, the number of products sold must 1/10 times. Therefore increase in the number of products sold is 100%
=> The required ratio = 100%/10% = 10.0

Question: At Deluxe paint store, Fuchsia paint is made by mixing 6 parts of red paint with 3 parts of blue paint. Mauve paint is made by mixing 4 parts of red paint with 5 parts blue paint. How many liters of blue paint must be added to 24 liters of Fuchsia to change it to Mauve paint?
Options:
A)9
B)12
C)15
D)16
E)18
Rationale: in 24 liters, Red = 6/9 * 24 = 16 and Blue = 8
so, 16/(8+x) = 4/5
or, x = 12 (Answer B)
Answer: B
Question: A = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11}
B = {2, 4, 6, 19}
Two integers will be randomly selected from sets A and B, one integer from set A and one from set B, and then multiplied together. How many different products can be obtained?
Options:
A)15
B)16
C)19
D)24
E)36
Rationale: Step 1: Find out the number of products you get.
5 distinct numbers in set A and 4 distinct in set B so number of products = 5*4 = 20
Step 2: Remove the products that appear more than once.
Notice that 5, 7, 11 and 13 are primes and none of their multiples are in either set. So ignore them. We just need to focus on 2 and 3 of set A and 2, 4 and 6 of set B.
2, 3
2, 4, 6
The only product repeated when you take a number from each set is 12. (3*4 and 2*6) Rest all are distinct.
Answer = 20 - 1 = 24
Note here that the second step will involve manual calculation since it will depend on the specific numbers you have in the two sets.
