Since November has 30 days, the town received 4 inches of rain for the first half of the month for 30/2 = 15 days. The total inches of rain that the town received for the 15 days is 15*4 = <<15*4=60>>60 inches. The rain falling in the town increased by 2*4 = <<2*4=8>>8 inches per day for the remaining half of the month. Therefore, for the rest of the month, the town received 8*15 = <<8*15=120>>120 inches of rain. The total amount of rain the town received in November is 120+60 = <<120+60=180>>180 inches #### 180

[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs." ]
A
Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a smaller distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is greater. There is a smaller distance between the magnets in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

One kilogram of tomatoes is 20% cheaper than one kilogram of cucumbers. One kilogram of cucumbers costs $5. What is the price of two kilograms of tomatoes and three kilograms of cucumbers?
null

One kilogram of tomatoes is 20/100 * 5 = $<<20/100*5=1>>1 cheaper than one kilogram of cucumbers. This means that one kilogram of tomatoes costs 5 - 1 = $<<5-1=4>>4. So two kilograms of tomatoes is a cost of 2 * 4 = $<<2*4=8>>8. And three kilograms of cucumbers is a cost of 3 * 5 = $<<3*5=15>>15. So the price for both products would be 8 + 15 = $<<8+15=23>>23. #### 23

What do these two changes have in common? stapling an envelope shut ice crystals forming on a window
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are chemical changes." ]
C
Step 1: Think about each change. Stapling an envelope shut is a physical change. The envelope and the staple get new shapes. Both are still made of the same type of matter. Ice crystals forming on a window is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. Water vapor in the air can change directly into ice when it touches a very cold window! A change of state from a gas to a solid is called depositing. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Ice crystals form on a window when water vapor in the air becomes ice. This is caused by cooling. But stapling an envelope shut is not.

The bakery has made 300 total doughnuts / 10 doughnuts per box = <<300/10=30>>30 boxes of doughnuts. So at the end of the day, they still have 30 total boxes of doughnuts – 27 sold boxes of doughnuts = <<30-27=3>>3 boxes of doughnuts leftover. They are therefore giving away 3 boxes of doughnuts * 10 doughnuts per box = <<3*10=30>>30 doughnuts. #### 30

A small, old, wooden bridge can hold up to 100 kilograms at once. Mike, Megan, and Kelly are three children who decided to cross the bridge at the same time. Kelly weighs 34 kilograms, which is 15% less than Megan. Mike weighs 5 kilograms more than Megan. How much too much do the three children weigh together to cross the bridge?
null

If Kelly weighs 15% less than Megan, this means Kelly's weight is 100 - 15 = <<100-15=85>>85% of Megan's weight. 85% is 0.85, so Megan weighs 34 / 0.85 = <<34/0.85=40>>40 kilograms. Mike weighs 5 kilograms more than Megan, so he weighs 40 + 5 = <<40+5=45>>45 kilograms. In total all three kids weigh 34 + 40 + 45 = <<34+40+45=119>>119 kilograms. That means to cross the bridge safely, they weigh 119 - 100 = <<119-100=19>>19 kilograms too much. #### 19

Bridget counted 14 shooting stars in the night sky. Reginald counted two fewer shooting stars than did Bridget, but Sam counted four more shooting stars than did Reginald. How many more shooting stars did Sam count in the night sky than was the average number of shooting stars observed for the three of them?
null
2
Reginald counted two fewer shooting stars than did Bridget, or a total of 14-2=<<14-2=12>>12 shooting stars. Sam counted 4 more shooting stars than did Reginald, or a total of 12+4=16 shooting stars. The average number of shooting stars observed for the three of them was (14+12+16)/3 = <<14=14>>14 shooting stars. Thus, Sam counted 16-14=2 more shooting stars than was the average number of shooting stars observed for the three of them. #### 2

Michael is stuck in an elevator that is slowly moving to the bottom floor. The elevator needs to move down 20 floors to reach the bottom. It takes 15 minutes for the elevator to travel down the first half of the floors. The elevator then takes 5 minutes per floor to travel down the next 5 floors. It then takes 16 minutes per floor for the elevator to finish traveling down the final 5 floors. In hours, how long did it take for the elevator to reach the bottom?
null
2
Over 5 of the floors, it takes the elevator 5 floors * 5 minutes per floor = <<5*5=25>>25 minutes to lower. Over the final 5 floors, it takes the elevator 5 floors * 16 minutes per floor = <<5*16=80>>80 minutes to lower. So in total, the elevator takes 15 minutes in the first half + 25 minutes in the next five floors + 80 minutes in the final five floors = <<15+25+80=120>>120 minutes to lower to the bottom. This is the same as 120 minutes / 60 minutes per hour = <<120/60=2>>2 hours. #### 2

The sum of Cooper’s, Dante’s, and Maria’s ages is 31. Dante is twice as old as Cooper. Maria is one year older than Dante. How old is Cooper?
null

Let X be the age of Cooper. So Dante is X*2 years old and Maria is X*2 + 1 year old. The sum of Cooper’s, Dante’s, and Maria’s ages is X + (X*2) + (X*2 + 1) = 31. Combining like terms, we get X*5 + 1 = 31. Subtracting one from both sides, we get X*5 = 30. Dividing both sides by 5, we get X = 6 years old. #### 6
