Answers:

1- D
First, we need to find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 143 and 55.
\(143=11×13\)
\(55=5×11→\) GFC\( = 11\)
Therefore, we need 11 boxes.

2- C
\(2205÷315=\frac{2205}{315}=\frac{441}{63}=\frac{147}{21}= 7\)

3- B
\(112=22+x \)
Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation. Then:
\(x=112-22=90\)

4- D
The distance that car B travels \(=1.2 ×\) distance that car A travels
=\(1.2×221.5=265.8 \) km

5- D
The perimeter of the trapezoid is 38.
Therefore, the missing side (height) is \(= 38 – 8 – 10 – 11 = 9\)
Area of the trapezoid: \(A = \frac{1}{2} h (b_1 + b_2) = \frac{1}{2}1 (9) (8 + 10) = 81\)

6- D
A. \(3^1+12=3+12=15\)
B. \(3^3-3^2=27-9=18\)
C. \(3^4-60=81-60=21\)
D. \(3^5-218=243-218=25\)

7- B
Alfred has \(x\) apple which is 15 apples more than the number of apples Alvin owns. Therefore:
\(x-15=40→x=40+15=55\)
Alfred has 55 apples.
Let \(y\) be the number of apples that Baron has. Then: \(y=\frac{1}{5}×55=11\)

8- A
Complementary angles add up to 180 degrees.
\( β+150^\circ=180^\circ→β=180^\circ-150^\circ=30^\circ\)
The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Then:
\(α+β+50^\circ=180^\circ→α+30^\circ+50^\circ=180^\circ\)
\(→α+80^\circ=180^\circ→α=180^\circ-80^\circ=100^\circ\)

9- C
Let \(x\) be the original price.
If the price of a laptop is decreased by \(15\%\) to $425, then:
\(85 \% \space of \space x=425⇒ 0.85x=425 ⇒ x=425÷0.85=500\)

10- C
Let \(x\) and \(y\) be two sides of the shape. Then:
\(x+1=1+1+1→x=2\)
\(y+6+2=5+4→y+8=9→y=1\)
Then, the perimeter is:
\(1+5+1+4+1+2+1+6+2+1=24\)

11- B
First, put the numbers in order from least to greatest: \(1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6\)
The Mode of the set of numbers is: 1 and 3 (the most frequent numbers)
The median is: 3 (the number in the middle)

12- C
\(x×92=x×(90+2)=(x×90)+(x×2)\)

13- C
The ratio of pens to pencils is \(3: 5\). Therefore there are 3 pens out of all 8 pens and pencils. To find the answer, first dived 96 by 8 then multiply the result by 3.
\(96÷8=12→12×3=36\)
There are 36 pens and 60 pencils \((96-36)\). Therefore, 24 more pens should be put in the box to make the ratio \(1: 1\)

14- D
If the value of point A is greater than the value of point B, then the distance of two points on the number line is: the value of A- the value of B
A. \(-\frac{24}{3}-(-13)=-8+13=5=5\)
B. \(-3-(-\frac{24}{3})=-3+8=5=5\)
C. \(-2-(-\frac{24}{3})=-2+8=6≠5\)

15- B
\(\frac{3}{13}≅0.23 , \frac{5}{14}≅0.357 , \frac{4}{11}≅0.36 , \frac{2}{5}=0.4\)

16- B
Plugin the value of \(x\) in the equations. \(x = -4\), then:
A.\(x(3x-1)=50→-4(3(-4)-1)=-4(-12-1)=-4(-13)=52≠50\)
B. \(5(11-x^2 )=-25→5(11-(-4)^2 )= 5(11-16)=5(-5)=-25\)
C. \(3(-2x+5)=49→3(-2(-4)+5)=3(8+5)=39≠49\)
D. \(x(-5x-19)=-3→-4(-5(-4)-19=-4(20-19)=-4≠-3\)

17- 5
Let \(x\) be the missing prime factor of 450.
\(450= 2 × 3 × 3 × x ⇒ x =\frac{450}{18} ⇒ x = 25=5×5\)

18- C
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse of the triangle.
\(a^2+b^2=c^2→6^2+8^2=c^2→36+64=c^2→100=c^2→c=10\)
The perimeter of the triangle is: \(6+8+10=24\)

19- C
Use the percent formula:
\(Part = \frac{percent}{100} × whole\)
\(65= \frac{percent}{100} × 50⇒ 65 = \frac{percent ×50}{100}⇒ 65=\frac{percent ×5}{10}\)
multiply both sides by 10.
\(650 =percent ×5, \space divide \space both \space sides \space by \space 5.\)
130 = percent
The answer is \(130\%\)

20- A
Let’s check the options provided.
A. \(-10+(-8)+ (\frac{5}{2})×(-2)=-10+(-8)+(-5)=-10-13=-23\)
B. \(5×3+(-2)×18=15+(-38)=-21\)
C. \(-10+6×8÷(-4)=-10+48÷(-4)=-10-12=-22\)
D. \((-3)× (-7)+ 2=21+2=23\)
