題目
1. Each week a salesperson receives a commission that is equal to 12 percent of the first $500 of sales plus 20 percent of additional sales. If the salesperson received a commission of $380 last week, what was the total amount of the sales that the salesperson made last week?
A. $1,600
B. $1,660
C. $1,860
D. $2,000
E. $2,100
答案:E
解析:$500*12%=$60; $380-$60=$320; $320/0.2=$1600; $1600+$500=$2100
2. 已知x ≠ 0,
Quantity A: x^2
Quantity B: x(x+5)
A. Quantity A is greater.
B. Quantity B is greater.
C. The two quantities are equal
D. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
答案:D
解析:如果x > 0, 則B > A; 如果x < 0, 則B < A,由于x值無法確定,因此兩者大小無從比較,所以選D。
3. If x< y, which of the following must be true?
A. 2x< y
B. 2x> y
C. x2< y2
D. 2x-y< y
E. 2x-y< 2xy
答案:D
解析:D項(xiàng)不等式變化可得2x<2y,也就是條件的x
4. The table shows the frequency distribution of the random variable X. What is the median of the distribution of the Value X?
X | Frequency |
0 | 6 |
1 | 11 |
2 | 18 |
3 | 23 |
4 | 15 |
B. 1.8
C. 2.0
D. 2.5
E. 3.0
答案:3
解析:題干問X這組數(shù)據(jù)的中位數(shù)。根據(jù)右側(cè)的頻率可知,總共出現(xiàn)了73個(gè)數(shù)字,所以中位數(shù)應(yīng)該是第37個(gè)數(shù)字,所以中位數(shù)是3。
5. According to a tax rate formula for a certain year, the amount of tax owed by an individual whose annual income was between $31,850 and $77,100 was equal to a base tax of $4,386 plus 24 percent of the annual income that exceeded $31,850.According to this formula, what was the amount of tax owed by an individual whose annual income that year was $42,000?
答案:6822
解析:題干問,某一年個(gè)人收入在$31,850到$77,100之間的稅收計(jì)算方式為$4,386加上超出$31,850部分的24%。問收入為$42,000的個(gè)人這一年需繳納多少稅?
所以我們可以得到所繳稅的計(jì)算方式=4386+24%*(42000-31850)=6822.
