Three questions from this test

Taken from the banks above, with the worked answers, so you can see the level before you start the clock.

1 Medium ≈ 75th percentile
Compare the two quantities.

x>0x>0

Quantity Axx+1\dfrac{x}{x+1}
Quantity Bx+1x+2\dfrac{x+1}{x+2}
  1. Quantity A is greater.
  2. Quantity B is greater.
  3. The two quantities are equal.
  4. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
Show answer
Answer: B. Quantity B is greater.
Cross-multiply (all denominators positive): compare x(x+2)=x2+2xx(x+2)=x^2+2x with (x+1)2=x2+2x+1(x+1)^2=x^2+2x+1. B is larger by 1(x+1)(x+2)\tfrac{1}{(x+1)(x+2)} for every positive xx.
41 Hard ≈ 90th percentile
How many distinct arrangements are there of the letters of LEVEL?
  1. 20
  2. 30
  3. 60
  4. 120
  5. 240
Show answer
Answer: B. 30
Five letters with L and E each repeated twice: 5!2! 2!=30\tfrac{5!}{2!\,2!}=30.
81 Medium ≈ 80th percentile
Line kk passes through the point (1,2)(1,2) and is perpendicular to the line y=2x+5y=2x+5. What is the xx-intercept of line kk?
  1. 3
  2. 4
  3. 5
  4. 6
  5. 7
Show answer
Answer: C. 5
Perpendicular slopes multiply to −1-1, so kk has slope −12-\tfrac12: y−2=−12(x−1)y-2=-\tfrac12(x-1). Setting y=0y=0: x−1=4x-1=4, so x=5x=5.

How it is scored

Every question is marked right or wrong as you go; there is no partial credit, exactly as in the real thing. At the end you get your score, the time you used against the time allowed, your average per question, and your accuracy broken down by percentile level, so you can see whether the ceiling is difficulty or speed. Every question then comes back with your answer, the correct one and a full worked solution.
