Knowledge of geometry and measurement - FTCE

First convert 1 mile per minute into miles per hour by multiplying by 60, then simply convert 60 miles per hour to km per hour by 1.6 to get 96.6, rounded up to 97.

Fluid ounces are the only provided measure of volume. Volume is measured in liquid displaced by an object. Kilometers are a measure of distance, and pounds are a measure of weight, which is related to, but not the same as, volume.

Joules are units of measurement used to describe energy (kinetic or potential). While "electricity" may be a tempting option here, "energy" is more correct; while electrical energy can be measured in Joules, not all energy measured in Joules is electrical in nature.

This is a basic, clear geometric rule that all students must know: for a standard triangle the sum of the sides is equal to the perimeter. No other answer was acceptable.

The area of the square is equal to the length of a side multiplied by itself. Thus, the length of a side is equal to the square root of 196. Since , 196 is the square of 14, and 14 is the square root of 196; it follows that the square has four sides of measure 14 feet. The perimeter of a square is four times the length of a side, so the perimeter of this square is feet.

To solve for in the equation

,

subtract 3 from both sides to reverse the addition of 3:

The height of a triangle is , and the length of its base is . The area of a triangle with base and height is

,

so, substituting these values,

,

the correct response.
