Answers:

1- D
If 17 balls are removed from the bag at random, there will be one ball in the bag. The probability of choosing a brown ball is 1 out of 18. Therefore, the probability of not choosing a brown ball is 17 out of 18 and the probability of having not a brown ball after removing 17 balls is the same.

2- C
Let \(x\) be the smallest number. Then, these are the numbers: \(x, x+1, x+2, x+3, x+4\)
average\(=\frac{sum \ of \ terms }{number \ of \ terms}⇒36=\frac{x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)}{5}⇒36=\frac{5x+10}{5 }⇒ \)
\(180=5x+10 ⇒170= 5x⇒x=34\)

3- C
Use this formula: Percent of Change: \(\frac{New \ Value-Old \ Value}{Old \ Value}×100\%\) .
\(\frac{18,200-28,000}{28,000}×100\%=-35\%\). The negative sign means that the price decreased

4- D
If the length of the box is 36, then the box’s width is one-third of it, 12, and the height of the box is 4 (one-third of the width). The volume of the box is: \(V=lwh=(36)(12)(4)=1,728\)

5- A
Write a proportion and solve for the missing number. \(\frac{32}{12}=\frac{6}{x}→32x=6×12=72\)
\(32x=72→x=\frac{72}{32}=2.25\)

6- C
Let \(x\) be the number. Write the equation and solve for \(x\). \((28-x)÷x= 3\)
Multiply both sides by \(x. (28-x)= 3x\), then add \(x\) both sides. \(28=4x\), now divide both sides by \(4. x=7\)

7- B
The sum of supplement angles is 180. Let \(x\) be that angle. Therefore, \(x+9x=180\)
\(10x=180\), divide both sides by \(10: x=18\)

8- C
The average speed of john is: 150÷ 6=25, The average speed of Alice is: 140÷4=35
Write the ratio and simplify. 25: 35 ⇒ 5∶7

9- D
The union of A and B is: \(A∪B\)={1,2,3,4,5,6,11,15}
The intersection of \((A∪B)\) and C is: \((A∪B)∩C={5,11}\)

10- C
Adding 6 to each side of the inequality \(4n – 3 ≥ 1\) yields the inequality \(4n + 3 ≥ 7\). Therefore, the least possible value of \(4n + 3\) is 7.
