Question 3

Pete Hax rents a ski house in Vail for $350 per day for six days. Assuming Pete spends $3940 for the total trip, how much did Pete spend on expenses other than the ski house?
A)$3,400
B)$3,500
C)$2,200
D)$1,800
E)$1,840

Accepted Answer

The cost of renting the ski house for 6 days is $350/day x 6 days = $2100.
Subtracting that from the total cost of the trip gives $3940 - $2100 = $1840, which is how much Pete spent on expenses other than the ski house. Therefore, the correct answer is E.

Question 4

On Tuesday, Pizza Hut sold 60 cheese pizzas at $8 each; 20 sausage pizzas at $12 each; 8 specialty pizzas at $15 each; and 33 pepperoni pizzas at $10 each. What were the total dollar sales for Pizza Hut on Tuesday?
A)$1,170
B)$690
C)$840
D)$930
E)$700

Accepted Answer

The total dollar sales are calculated by multiplying the number of pizzas sold by their respective prices and then adding all the amounts together: (60 * $8) + (20 * $12) + (8 * $15) + (33 * $10) = $480 + $240 + $120 + $330 = $1,170.

Question 5

C)$520
D)$250
E)$500

Accepted Answer

The total cost of the Ford Explorer including the interest charge is $26,000 + $3,000 = $29,000. Dividing this total cost by the 50 equal payments gives $29,000 / 50 = $580 per payment.

D)$1,600
E)None of these

Accepted Answer

Total cost for Ace = $15 x 100 = $1500
