Problem 1

Ike and Mike go into a sandwich shop with a total of $$30.00$ to spend. Sandwiches cost $$4.50$ each and soft drinks cost $$1.00$ each. Ike and Mike plan to buy as many sandwiches as they can and use the remaining money to buy soft drinks. Counting both soft drinks and sandwiches, how many items will they buy?

$\textbf{(A) }6\qquad\textbf{(B) }7\qquad\textbf{(C) }8\qquad\textbf{(D) }9\qquad\textbf{(E) }10$

Solution

Problem 2

$[asy] draw((0,0)--(3,0)); draw((0,0)--(0,2)); draw((0,2)--(3,2)); draw((3,2)--(3,0)); dot((0,0)); dot((0,2)); dot((3,0)); dot((3,2)); draw((2,0)--(2,2)); draw((0,1)--(2,1)); label("A",(0,0),S); label("B",(3,0),S); label("C",(3,2),N); label("D",(0,2),N); [/asy]$ Three identical rectangles are put together to form rectangle , as shown in the figure below. Given that the length of the shorter side of each of the smaller rectangles is $5$ feet, what is the area in square feet of rectangle $ABCD$ ? (A) 45 (B) 75 (C) 100 (D) 125 (E) 150

$\textbf{(A) }45\qquad\textbf{(B) }75\qquad\textbf{(C) }100\qquad\textbf{(D) }125\qquad\textbf{(E) }150$

Solution

Problem 3

3. Which of the following is the correct order of the fractions $\frac{15}{11}$ , $\frac{19}{15}$ , and $\frac{17}{13}$ , from least to greatest?

$\textbf{(A) }\frac{15}{11} < \frac{17}{13} < \frac{19}{15}\qquad\textbf{(B) }\frac{15}{11} < \frac{19}{15} < \frac{17}{13}\qquad\textbf{(C) }\frac{17}{13} < \frac{19}{15} < \frac{15}{11}\qquad\textbf{(D) }\frac{19}{15} < \frac{15}{11} < \frac{17}{13}\qquad\textbf{(E) }\frac{19}{15} < \frac{17}{13} < \frac{15}{11}$

Solution

Problem 4

Quadrilateral $ABCD$ is a rhombus with perimeter $52$ meters. The length of diagonal $\overline{AC}$ is $24$ meters. What is the area in square meters of rhombus $ABCD$ ?

$[asy] draw((-13,0)--(0,5)); draw((0,5)--(13,0)); draw((13,0)--(0,-5)); draw((0,-5)--(-13,0)); dot((-13,0)); dot((0,5)); dot((13,0)); dot((0,-5)); label("A",(-13,0),W); label("B",(0,5),N); label("C",(13,0),E); label("D",(0,-5),S); [/asy]$

Solution

Because it is a rhombus all sides are equal. Implies all sides are 13. In a rhombus diagonals are perpendicular.

draw((-13,0)--(0,5));
draw((0,5)--(13,0));
draw((13,0)--(0,-5));
draw((0,-5)--(-13,0));
draw((-13,0)--(13,0));
draw((0,5,)--(0,-5));
dot((-13,0));
dot((0,5));
dot((13,0));
dot((0,-5));
label("A",(-13,0),W);
label("B",(0,5),N);
label("C",(13,0),E);
label("D",(0,-5),S);
