Q 10

In the fraction 3/x, x may not be substituted by which of the following sets?



A. {1, 2, 4}

B. {-2,-3,-4}

C. {1, 3, 7}

D. {0, 10, 20}

E. {1.8, 4.3}



1. C: The second part of the problem may be modeled with the equation, 12 = 0.15x. Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.15 gives x = 80. 35% of 80 may be written as 0.35(80), which equals 28.



2. C: The problem may be modeled with the equation, x - 0.20x = 1600, which simplifies to 0.80x = 1600. Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.80 gives x = 2000. The original cost of the computer was $2000.



3. B: The cost of the SUV to the dealer may be represented by the equation, 39000 = x + 0.25x, which simplifies to 39000 = 1.25x. Dividing both sides of the equation by 1.25 gives x = 31,200.



4. E: The problem may be modeled by the expression, 49000 - 0.20(49000), which equals 39,200. Thus, he sold the car for $39,200.



5. B: The problem may be modeled with the equation, 1/4+1/6+1/2=1/t, which simplifies to 11/12=1/t. Solving for t gives t=12/11. Thus, they can finish the work in 1.09 days, when working together.



6. D: The quotient of 12 divided by 12 is 1. The quotient of 0.12 divided by 12 equals 0.01, since the decimal point in 0.12 is moved two places to the left.



7. D: When dividing terms, with the same base, the exponents should be subtracted. So, x5/x2 =x3.



8. B: The integer, 1, is a natural number. The natural numbers are a subset of the set of whole numbers, and the set of whole numbers are a subset of the set of rational numbers. Thus, the integer, 1, is a natural number, whole number, and rational number.



9. C: 4 occurs in the list three times, which is more than any other frequency, thus it is the mode.


10. D: This set contains the element, 0, which would result in division by zero.

New AND Free TOEFL English practice test- 1-10-Answers and Explanations

1. C: The adverb "magnificently" modifies the verb "rises" and reads more appropriately and concisely than the phrase "in a magnificent way." "Way above" [(B), (C)] is slangy and does not express the intended meaning. If it did, "far above" would be more correct. Passive-voice "is raised" (E) connotes a different meaning (i.e. is set higher) than active-voice "rises" (i.e. appears) in this sentence.



2. A: "Someone" is one word, not two [(B), (C)]. "There is a person that" (D) differs semantically and grammatically, meaning someone exists who gives the school gerbils rather than someone gives the school gerbils; also, "who" is preferable over "that" when referring to people. The meaning is changed by past tense "gave" (E); i.e. an individual/someone gave the school gerbils every year but no longer does, vs. someone still gives the school gerbils every year.



3. B: "Schoolroom" is one word, not two [(A), (D)]. A semicolon separates independent clauses or phrases containing internal commas, but is incorrect between a phrase and a clause [(C), (D)]. A comma, not a dash (E), is used between the introductory prepositional phrase and the independent clause it modifies.



4. D: The correct preposition with verbs expressing movement or placement is "into," not "in" [(A), (B), (C), (E)], a common error. We place something into a container, not in it; things move into the air, not in it. "In" denotes something is already there rather than moving/being moved there.



5. E: Since this entire conditional-subjunctive sentence construction is in the past, the correct conditional form is past perfect "If I had had" rather than present perfect "if I had" [(A), (B), (C)] with the present perfect subjunctive "I would have." The correct punctuation between conditional "if" and subjunctive "would" parts is always a comma, never a semicolon [(B), (D)] or a dash (C).



6. E: The present perfect intransitive "to lie" is "have lain," not "have lay" (A), "have laid" (B), or "had laid" (D), which latter two are only transitive, e.g. "She has laid the gloves on the bureau every day" or "I saw a pair of gloves she had laid on the bureau." The conditional "would lie" (C) is only grammatical with a conditional, e.g. "…would lie on the bureau all week unless you moved them," also conveying a different meaning.



7. A: Conditional-subjunctive ("If…then") constructions set in the past use past perfect ("If I had known") for the conditional, and present perfect ("I would have signed up") for the subjunctive, because "If" comes earlier and "then" later. Adding the subjunctive "would"/"could" to the conditional as well (B) is incorrect. Substituting the preposition "of" for the auxiliary verb "have" (C) is always incorrect. "Had been/could have been told" [(C), (D)] differs in meaning from "had known."



8. B: With conditional-subjunctive constructions, never add the subjunctive auxiliary verb (would/could/would have/could have) to the conditional (If) half [(A), (C), (E)]; it is only used in the subjunctive half. It is never correct to substitute the preposition "of" for the auxiliary verb "have" [(C), (D)].



9. E: To agree with the present-tense predicate "claims," the dependent clause must also be present-tense "make," not "made" (A). "Could be" (B) and "are" (C) alter the sentence meaning. "Make of" (D) is not a valid construction in this sentence structure, makes no sense, and means nothing.



10. D: "By next month" used together with "for two years" indicates something that will be completed in the future, so future perfect "will have been" is the correct tense. "Will be" [(A), (C)] means she will be mayor for two years beginning in the future. Moreover, "Mayor" [(A), (B)] is incorrectly capitalized: it is not used as a title/name here (like "Mayor Jones"). "Could have been" (E) changes the meaning.

Trick to Remove Old Calendar Entries to create more space in Outlook email

More free space in outlook email

With time in outlook email the space get reduced when we use the outlook for many activities. It easy to delete the inbox and sent item but for deleting old calendar entries, you need some more work.

This idea will be apply for both Outlooks 2007n and Outlook 2010.

Calendar items can add a large amount of space to your mailbox. If you want to free up some of this space, you can delete past entries from your Outlook Calendar.

Note: To see how much space your entire mailbox is using,

 

How to check your E-mail Disk Space

To see how much space just your Calendar is using, do these steps:

a .In the Navigation Pane, click the Folder List icon.

b. Right-click on the Calendar icon and choose Properties.

c. Click Folder Size....

This space is listed in kilobytes (KB)

To convert this number to megabytes (MB), divide by 1000 for a rough estimate

Ex: 20,000 KB would equal 20 MB. If your calendar is over this number, we recommend that you follow these steps to reduce its size.




d. Click Close. Click OK.

Note: To select a large block of entries and delete them, you can view the Calendar entries in a list. Once the entries are in a list, you can choose to click any of the column headings to sort the entries in a way you prefer.

2. In Outlook 2007, from the View menu choose Current View and slide right to All Appointments.

In Outlook 2010, click the View tab. In the Current View group, click Change View and choose List.



Note: By default the Calendar will be sorted by Start date. Non-recurring items will be at the top. These are single event items. If you scroll to the bottom of the list, you may see recurring items listed in your Calendar. You should be cautious of deleting recurring items!



Note: If you click the paper click (attachment) column heading, your entries will sort by attachment. Any entries with an attachment will be larger than regular Calendar entries. For example, if you create a Calendar entry by dragging a message to the Calendar, this creates a larger-than-normal Calendar entry.



Note: If you use Outlook Categories a great deal, you can group Calendar entries by Categories and then sort by Start date. You can then decide to keep entries that are critical to you. See steps below for help with this if needed.



Note: And, if you want to reset the Calendar's List view back to its default, see steps below as well.



3. To delete a range of Calendar entries, click on the first entry to be deleted. Hold down the Shift key and click on the last entry in a given range to be deleted. For example, you could delete all entries from the year 2007.



4. Press Delete.



5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 as needed to delete additional Calendar entries.



Note: When finished, you should set the Calendar back to the normal "Day/Week/Month" view.



6. In Outlook 2007, from the View menu choose Current View and slide right to Day/Week/Month.

In Outlook 2010, click the View tab. In the Current View group, click Change View and choose Calendar.

Autism

Autism is a brain development disorder that impairs social interaction and communication and causes restricted and repetitive behavior, all starting before a child is three years old. The genetics of autism are complex and it is generally unclear which genes are responsible for it. Autism affects many parts of the brain but how this occurs is also poorly understood. Autism is strongly associated with agents that cause birth defects. Other proposed causes, such as childhood vaccines, are controversial and the vaccine hypotheses lack convincing scientific evidence. The number of people known to have autism has increased dramatically since the 1980s. Parents usually notice signs in the first two years of their child's life. Early behavioral cognitive intervention can help children gain self-care, social and communication skills but there is no cure for it. Few children with autism live independently after reaching adulthood, but same become successful and an autistic culture has developed, with same seeking a cure and others believing that autism is a condition rather than a disorder.

Answers & Explanations- New AND Free SAT Math practice test- 201-206

1. A: 104=10.10.10.10, or 10,000.



2. C: When multiplying terms with the same base, the exponents should be added. Thus, 104 . 102=106.



3. D: When dividing terms with the same base, the exponents should be subtracted. Thus, x5/x2 =x3.



4. D: The decimal will be moved to the right 9 places. Thus 7 zeros will be added to the right of 823, giving 8,230,000,000.



5. B: Moving the decimal to the right of the digit, 8, gives the equivalent expression, 8.3×104, since there are 4 digits to the right of the 8.



6. B: Moving the decimal to the right of the 8 gives 8.75×10-3, since the decimal must be moved 3 places to the right.

Some new Tricks to save money with your credit card in 2014

Credit cards are friends if we use them wisely; they are your big enemy if once you lose control…

For my blog readers here is another article for saving money. Credit cards are now part of our life. In North America without cards we cannot do anything. Having a credit card is handy, just like the following tips to help you save money.

1. Know your limit, and stay within it

All credit cards have a limit, and if you go over yours you will be charged what is called an over limit fee. This over limit fee varies by credit card but often ranges from $20 to $35.

2. Don’t be late making your payments

You can avoid costly late fees by making your payments before the payment due date specified on your statement.

3. Pay your balance in full every month

You can avoid costly interest charges by paying your balance in full every month.

4. Carrying a balance? Make early payments

If you're carrying over a balance month to month, don't wait until your payment due date to put some money down on your card. If you have it, put it on your card as soon as possible to minimize how much you end up paying in interest.

5. Always carry a balance? Consider a low interest rate card

Even though low interest rate credit cards often come with an annual fee, if you typically carry a balance you could end up saving money with a low rate card. The lower rate, in some cases, might save you more money than the cost of the annual fee. It's an option worth exploring if you regularly carry a balance.

6. Avoid taking cash advances

This cash advances idea is like a hanging carrot to have more spending.



Even though a cash advance may be easy and convenient, you are paying a premium for this service. Not only will you be charged interest right away (there is no interest-free period like some purchases) but often you will also be charged a cash advance fee. This fee can be a flat rate fee (like $5.00 or $10), a percentage of the amount you withdrew or a combination of the two.

7. Avoid using convenience cheques (AKA cash advances)

Most of the time, convenience cheques (issued by the credit card company) are for all intents and purposes treated the same as a cash advance.

8. Avoid charging cash-equivalent transactions

Unless you know that your credit card company will treat it as a purchase (and not like a cash advance), avoid paying for wire transfers, money orders, traveller's cheques or gaming activities (i.e. betting, wagers, lottery tickets, casino chips) with your credit card.

9. Keep your credit card active

Do you want a credit card just in case? Don't forget to use it every once in a while to keep it active. With some credit cards you could be charged an account maintenance fee for cards that become inactive. Usually you are given a year before your account is deemed dormant.

10. Pick the right credit card

Interest rates vary between cards. But did you know that interest rates may also vary within one card? You may be charged one rate for purchases, one for cash advances and another for the balance you transferred onto your card. That's why it's important to know in advance how you will use your credit card. You will save money when you get a credit card that offers you the best interest rate for how you plan to use it. Shop around for a credit card that suits your needs, and save money at the same time. Compare credit card features, benefits and rewards easily online today at Kanetix.ca.
