22 FCAT.0 Algebra I 1 The correct answer is 58. The Cartesian product contains 85 elements, so the number of elements in each of P and Q can either be 1 and 85 or 5 and 17. Since each of P and Q contains more than one element, the onl possible combination is 5 and 17. (It does not matter which of P and Q has either number.) We are given that P and Q are disjoint, so there are no common elements. Therefore, the number of elements that belong to neither P nor Q is = 58. The correct answer is = 49 = 7 and 00 = 100 = 10. Thus, = 17 = 89 = 578. (B) Each side of the square is = +. Thus, the area is ( + ) = The correct answer is. Let represent the epected number of defective blouses in a sample of 5. Then 1 =. Cross-multipl to get 900 =,700. Then = Therefore, the number of blouses that do not have defects is 5 =. (D) Using Common Term factoring, 48 = ( 16). Thus, besides 1 and 48, the factors of 48 are,,, 16, 48, and 16. (H) Let represent the number of elements in set T. The cardinalit of an set X is denoted as n(x). For an two given sets R and T, nr ( T) = nr ( ) + nt ( ) nr ( T). B substitution, 91 = Then 91 = 51 +, so = The correct answer is 1. The slope (m) is given b the formula m = 1. B substitution, the slope is =. Cross-multipl to get + 14 = ( 4)() = 1. 7 Now subtracting 14 from each side results in = 6. Thus, = 6 = 1. ( cd 8 The correct answer is e 5 ) 6 10 c d e 6 ( 9) ( 6) 10 ( 0) 8 10 = = c d e = cde. We c d e c d e can write 8 as and 10 as 5. Thus, the least common multiple of, 8, and 10 is 5 = 10.

23 Online Practice Test Answer Ke (A) Using the Distributive Law of Multiplication over Addition, we can simplif the equation to 1 =. Then = +, which becomes = 5. Thus, = ( ) 5 = 9.. (G) The general form of the linear equation is = m + b, where m is the slope and b is the -intercept. Two of the points on the graph of this line are (5, 4.5) and (4, 0). The slope equals = 4.5. Then = b. Now substitute either point to solve for 4 5 b. Using the point (4, 0), we have 0 = (4.5)(4) + b. So 0 = 18 + b, which means that b = 1. Thus, the correct equation is = The correct answer is 6.. Using the linear model derived from question #10, the projected number of hours for November is (4.5)(8) + 1 = 48. Then the mean number of hours per project for all si months equals = = 6.. (I) Since line n is parallel to line m, their slopes must be equal. B substituting the point ( 10, 11) into the slope formula, we find that the slope is 11 ( 1) = ( 4) 6 = 5. For answer choices (F), (G), and (H), in conjunction the point ( 4, 1), the slopes would be 5, 5, and 5, respectivel. (C) ( )( + ) ( 6) = = + ( ) + ( + 6 ) = + 5. The correct answer is 1.0. For the $10 item, the ta is 5% + 1.5% = 6.5%. For the $90 item, the ta is 5%. Thus, the total ta for Steve s purchases is ($10)(0.065) + ($90)(0.05) =$ $4.50 = $1.0. (A) Using the Distributive Law, the inequalit becomes < Subtract from each side to get < 10. Net, add 4 to each side to get 4 < 5. Thus, < 1.

24 4 FCAT.0 Algebra I The correct answer is 70. First note that = = = =. This means that pounds of meat are needed for ever guests. Let represent the number of pounds of meat needed for 180 guests. Then =. Cross-multipl to get = 540. Thus, 180 = The correct answer is 5. Since the slope is 4, we can write the equation as = 4 + b. (b is the -intercept.) Then, substituting (, 1), we get 1 = ( 4)( ) + b. So b = 1 8 = 0. To determine the -value of the -intercept, substitute zero for in the equation = 4 0. Thus, 0 = 4 0, which means that = The correct answer is 7.. f () = + ()() 7 = = 7. Then h() = 5 9 = 7. Add 9 to each side to get 5 = 6. Thus, = (D) To determine the -intercept, substitute = 0. Answer choices (A) and (B) are wrong because (0, 8) is the -intercept for each of them. Each of answer choices (C) and (D) does have the -intercept (0, 8). The - intercept is found b substituting = 0. For answer choice (C), the -intercept is (10, 0), which lies to the right of the origin. This means that answer choice (C) is wrong. The -intercept for answer choice (D) is 16 (,0), which does lie to the left of the origin. (F) This line has a negative slope. With respect to points on this line, notice that for =, the corresponding value is less than 1. This implies that the slope is greater than 0.5. For eample, assume that L 1 contains the point (, 0.75). Now use the fact that (0, 0) lies on L 1. Then the slope would be = 0.75, which is greater than 0.5. The 0 slopes of L, L, and L 4 are a positive number, a negative number less than 0.5, and zero, respectivel. (B) First multipl the entire equation b to get V = W + XY. Subtracting W, leads to V W V W = XY. The last step is to divide b Y, so that = X. Y

25 Online Practice Test Answer Ke 5 4 (I) For an function, each value ma correspond to onl one value. Thus, for the graph of an function, no two points ma have the same -coordinate. Since (8, 7) is a point on the graph, this means that (8, ) cannot be a point on the graph. The correct answer is 4. The left side of the inequalit can be written as 700 and the right side can be written as ( ) m = m. Then 700 < m, which simplifies to m >.. Since m must be an integer, the minimum value would be 4. (G) 4 < 6 is equivalent to 6 < 4 < 6. Then 9 < 4 <, so its solution is 9 < <. All the members of the inequalit in answer choice (G) are contained in < < 4 4. Answer choice (F) is wrong because its upper bound of eceeds 9 4. So, for eample an value of 11 belongs to choice (F) but not to < < An value such as 4 belongs to each of answer choices (H) and (I) but does not belong to 5 9 < <. So, (H) and (I) are wrong The correct answer is,016. The range values are as follows: () + 50 = 4, () + 50 =, and (4) + 50 = 18. Using prime factorization, 4 = 7, = 5, and 18 =. Thus, the least common multiple is 5 7 = (G) Let w and d represent the width and depth, respectivel, of the scale model. Then =. Reduce 100 w 100 to, so that = 18. Cross-multipl to get w = 6. So, w w = 1. Similarl, =. We can reduce 5 d 5 to 6 1. Then 6 = 18, which leads to 1 d 6d = 18. So, d =. Therefore, the sum of the length, width, and depth of the scale model is = inches.

26 6 FCAT.0 Algebra I (B) The equation ma be written as = 5 + b, where b is the -intercept. Substitute (6, 0) so that 0 = 5(6) + b. Then b = 0. Now the equation becomes = Note that (4, 10) satisfies this equation because 10 = 5(4) + 0. None of answer choices (A), (C), and (D) satisf this equation. The correct answer is 7.5. Let represent the average speed in miles per hour of car B. Since car A traveled for 5 hours (1:00 pm to 6:00 pm), the distance traveled was (4)(5) = 10 miles. Car B traveled for 4 hours, so its distance was 4. The two cars traveled in opposite directions, so = 60. Then 4 = 150, which means that = 7.5 miles per hour. (C) Caitlin s profit in Januar was (0)(5) 100 = $650. Here profit in Februar was (0) () 100 = $860. In order that her profit for Januar, Februar, and March eceed $000, she must make a profit of at least $000 $650 $860 = $490 in March. Let represent the number of paintings sold in March. Then This inequalit becomes so Since we must round up, she must sell at least 0 paintings. 0 (H) Point A is located at ( 4, 1) and point B is located at (0, ). Then the slope of the line 1 is 0 ( 4) =. The equation of this line becomes = 4 4. B substitution, we find that 6 = (80). This implies that (80, 6) is a point on this line. Each of 4 answer choices (F), (G), and (I) is wrong because 45 (60), (70), and 66 4 (90). 1 (C) n c + ( n c) 4 nc n c nc c 8 4 = + = + n c 4 c = + n 5. (Remember that c 0 = 1.) nc nc n n (I) ( mp r ) ( m p r ) 5 4 = ( mpr 6 9 )( m 1 pr 8 0 ) m p = m p r = r

27 Online Practice Test Answer Ke 7 (B) Given 6 < 1 4 < 0, subtract 1 from each part to get 18 < 4 < 8. Then divide each part b 4 (and reverse the sense of the inequalit) to get the solution of 9 < <. Each element of answer choice (B) is contained in < < 9. Answer choice (A) is wrong because it contains 5 and 6. Answer choice (C) is wrong because 9 numbers such as.5 do not belong to < <. Answer choice (D) is wrong because it contains 4.5, which is equal to 9. 4 (G) ( 18 )( ) = ()( 9)( )( 16)( ) 4 + ( 49)( ) = ()()(4)() = (C) 4 7 = 6 = (6)( )( ) = 6 6, which still contains a radical sign. For answer choice (A), = 9 = 80. For answer choice (B), = 16 = For answer choice (D), = 5 = 5 4. (F) Since 5 and are zeros of the equation + a + c = 0, the factors must be ( 5) and ( + ). So we can write ( 5)( + ) = 0. We note that ( 5)( + ) = = 10. Thus, a = and c = 10. The correct answer is. Substituting 148 for P, we get 148 = , which becomes = 0. Dividing b 8 leads to 0 44 = 0. Then ( ) ( + ) = 0. The two answers are and, but we reject an negative answer. (F) The Universal set = {,, 5, 7, 11, 1, 17, 19,, 9, 1, 7} Since 60 = 5, R = {,, 5}. Since 75 = 5 1, S = {5, 11}. Therefore, the set that does not contain an elements from R or S must contain the eight elements 7, 1, 17, 19,, 9, 1, and 7.

28 8 FCAT.0 Algebra I (A) First note that when = 0, = 9. This means that onl answer choices (A) and (C) are possible. Assume that choice (C) is correct and substitute the point (4, 0). We need to check if 0 = (4) + (4) 9. However, the right side simplifies to ()(16) = 5. This means that (4, 0) does not lie on the graph of = + 9. Onl answer choice (A) could be correct. We note that b substitution, ( ) + ( ) 9 = ()(9) 9 9 = 0 and () + () 9 = ()(4) = 5. Thus, both (, 0) and (, 5) lie on the graph of = + 9. (G) In order to solve 6, ,900, first subtract 500 from each part to get 6,600 5,400. The last step is to divided each part b and reverse the inequalit smbols. Thus, the solution is 1,800,00. The solutions to answer choices (F), (H), and (I) are 1,800,00, 1,700,00, and 1,750,00, respectivel. (C) A horizontal line has a slope of zero, so this eliminates answer choices (B) and (D). Answer choice (A) is wrong because the line crosses the -ais at (0, 4). Note that the graph in answer choice (C) crosses the -ais at (0, 4). The correct answer is 169. Let represent the number of elements that belong to both P and Q. Then 75 represents the number of elements that belong onl to P. Similarl, 110 represents the number of elements that belong onl to Q. So, (75 ) + + (110 ) + = 00. This equation simplifies to 08 = 00. Solving, we get = 8, which represents the number of elements inboth P and Q. Thus, the number of elements that belong to eactl one of P and Q is 00 8 = 169. An alternative solution after finding that = 8 is as follows: The number of elements that belong to onl P is 75 8 = 67. Likewise, the number of elements that belong to onl Q is = 10. Thus, the number of elements that belong to eactl one of P and Q is = 169. (A) ( )( + 7) ( 5)( 5) = = Thus, 18 is not a part of the final simplified result.

29 Online Practice Test Answer Ke 9 44 (F) (4 )( 5 1) (4 )(+ )( 4) ()( 4) = = =, which is 8 18 ( )(4 9) ( )(+ )( ) 8 equivalent to. (Note that CANNOT be canceled from the numerator and denominator because it is not a factor of either binomial.) 45 The correct answer is 55. The dollar amount in April was $850 $155 $195 $5 = $75. The number of das for Januar can be found b solving the equation 155 = d. Subtract 75 from each side to get 80 = 10d. Then d = 8. In a similar manner, the number of das for each of Februar, March and April can be determined b solving the equations 195 = d, 5 = d, and 75 = d, respectivel. We find that Jerr spent 1 das in Februar, 15 das in March, and 0 das in April. Thus, the total number of das spent at the club was = The correct answer is $1.50. Let = number of children, = number of adults, and z = number of senior citizens. Then we can form three equations, namel: 4 + = 15, 4 + z = 10, and + z = 5. Subtract the second equation from the first equation to get z = 5. Net, double all terms of the third equation to get + z = 10. Adding this equation to z = 5 will result in 5 = 15. So, = $, which is the cost per adult. Using the equation + z = 5, we can easil find that z = $, which is the cost per senior citizen. Use the first equation to find the value of. Then 4 + ()() = 15, which simplifies to 4 = 6. So = $1.50. Thus, the cost of three children, five adults, and si senior citizens is ()($1.50) + (5)($) + (6)($) = $1.50. (B) f (4) = = 1, f (6) = ()(6) 5 = 7, and f (8) = ()(8) 5 = 11. Then = 5. (H) (5 4)( + ) = = One half of 4 10 is 5. Then ( 5) = + 6.

30 0 FCAT.0 Algebra I 49 (A) Let represent the number of gallons of water that must be removed. The original 40-gallon solution contains (0.15)(40) = 6 gallons of acid. When gallons of water are removed, the resulting solution will contain 40 gallons of both water and acid. 6 Since no acid is being removed, there will still be 6 gallons of acid. Then 40 = 0.0. Multipl both sides b (40 ) to get 6 = (0.0)(40 ) = Subtracting 8 from each side leads to = 0.0. Thus, = = 10 gallons The correct answer is 115. B using a factor tree, we can determine that 18 = 8 5 and 45 = So = = = 5. Therefore, mn = ()(5) = The correct answer is 54. In order that the relation not be a function, there must be at least two different ordered pairs in which the first element is repeated. The lowest given domain value is 9. Thus, if the fourth ordered pair is (9, 18), then the sum of the domain values is = 54. (I) B < 4AC is equivalent to B 4AC < 0. The quantit B 4AC is called the discriminant of the quadratic formula used to determine the solutions to 0 = A + B + C. Whenever the discriminant is less than zero, both solutions must be comple. This implies that the graph of = A + B + C does not intersect the -ais, as shown in answer choice (I). (B) The slope of L must be the negative reciprocal of the slope of L 1. So the slope of L must be 4. The equation of L must be of the form = + b, where b is 4 the -intercept. Now substituting the point (14, 5), we get = 5 + b 4 (14). Then 5 = b, which means that b = 5.5. The -intercept is therefore (0, 5.5).

31 Online Practice Test Answer Ke (G) Using cross-multiplication for the given proportion, we have ( )( ) = 6( + 11). This equation becomes = , which simplifies to = 0. For an quadratic equation of the form a + b + c = 0, the product of the roots is given b the quantit c a. Thus, for = 0, the product of the roots is 60 = 0. Note that an alternative solution, following = 0, is to use factoring on the left side of this equation. Then ( + 5)( 1) = 0, from which we get the values of 5 and 1. Thus, the product is 5 (1) = 0. The correct answer is 0.5. Since the coefficient of is negative, the graph has a maimum value at its verte. The -value of the verte of an function in the form = a + b + c is given b the quotient b. For our current function, this value a is ()( 1) =. Thus, the corresponding value is = + = 4 1 4, which is equivalent to 0.5. (G) Note that C B means the set of all elements in C that do not eist in B. This is equivalent to listing all elements of C, then subtracting out those elements common to both B and C. Now C ={mouse, snake, tiger, turtle, zebra} and the elements common to B and C are turtle and zebra. Thus, C B = {mouse, snake, tiger}. Answer choice (F) is wrong because its elements are lion, rat, and horse. Answer choice (H) is wrong because its elements are mouse and turtle. Answer choice (I) is wrong because its onl element is turtle. (D) Let the graph of the line be represented b = m + b, where m is the slope and b is the -intercept. Since (0, 7) is a point on this line, we know that b = 7. We can substitute the point (, 10) to find m. Then 10 = (m)() + 7, which simplifies to = m. This means that m = 1.5, so the equation of this line is = To find the value of p, substitute = 8. Then p = (1.5)(8) + 7 = 19. To find the value of q, substitute = 8. Then 8 = 1 1.5q + 7. This equation simplifies to 1 = 1.5q. So q = = 14. Finall, we note that 1.5 the difference of p and q is 5.

32 FCAT.0 Algebra I 58 The correct answer is.5. We need to solve the equation = Subtract 6 from each side to get 0.50 = Net, subtract 0.0 from each side to get 0.0 = Thus, = 4.50 =.5 miles. (Note that for.5 miles, the cost for each compan is $17.5) (D) The set M consists of all elements that do not belong to M. This includes c, d, and all elements that are not listed in either M or N. Each element in answer choice (D) is either c, d, or an element outside of M and N, (but within U ). Answer choice (A) is wrong because it contains the elements i and z. Answer Choice (B) is wrong because it contains the elements,, and z. Answer choice (C) is wrong because the elements 1 and do not belong to the Universal set. 60 The correct answer is 6. Let = number of nickels, + 5 = number of dimes, and ( + 5) = + 10 = number of quarters. The value of each of her nickels, dimes, and quarters is 0.05, (0.10)( + 5), and (0.5)( + 10), respectivel. Then ( + 5) + (0.5)( + 10) = 10.80, which becomes = This equation simplifies to = Then 0.65 = 7.80, so = 1, the number of nickels. So Sall must also have = 17 dimes and ()(17) = 4 quarters. Therefore, Sall has a total of = 6 coins (B) 5 e to each side to get d 1= 5 e. Now di- d 1 = e. Finall, square both sides so that a 5 Rewrite the given equation b adding vide both sides b 5, which results in d 1 4d 4d+ 1 e = =. 5 5 The correct answer is 1. Let n = number of coins Marlene originall had and let n + = number of coins Kenn originall had. After Kenn gave Marlene 7 coins, he had n + 7 = n 4, and she had n + 7. Since she still had nine fewer coins, we can write n 4 = n Subtracting n from each side leads to n 4 = So n = = 60. Thus, the number of coins that Kenn originall had was ()(60) + = 1.

33 Online Practice Test Answer Ke 6 The correct answer is 9. Multipl the first equation b and the second equation b. The result is the following set of equations: 6 4= = 159 Adding these equations ields 11 = 99. Thus, = (G) Factoring the left side of the equation, we get ( + 1)( 6) = 0. So + 1 = 0 or 6 = 0. Thus, the solutions (zeros) are 1 and 6. Answer choice (F) is wrong because its zeros are and. Answer choice (H) is wrong because its zeros are and. Answer choice (I) is wrong because its zeros are 1 and 6. (D) Using the Quadratic equation, the solutions are given b ± ( 11) ( 11) (4)()(8) = ()() 11± = 11± 57 11± and The larger solution is
