Question
The number of people who rode a certain bus eachday of a week is shown in the table below.
Which of the following is true based on these data?
- The bus had the most riders on Tuesday.
- Each day from Tuesday through Sunday, the number of riders on the bus was greater than the previous day
- Each day from Tuesday through Sunday, the number of riders on the bus was less than the previous day.
- The two days with the fewest number of riders
were Saturday and Sunday
were Saturday and Sunday
Hint:
Hint:
We are given a table of data that shows each day of the week and the number of people who rode that bus each day. We need to verify each statement given in the options. Carefully observe the given data and check every statement.
The correct answer is: The two days with the fewest number of riders
were Saturday and Sunday
We check every option
Option A) The bus had the most riders on Tuesday.
From the table, it is clear that the bus had 798 riders on Tuesday which is less than 808 on Friday. So this statement is false.
Option B) Each day from Tuesday through Sunday, the
number of riders on the bus was greater than the previous day.
But we can see that the number of riders on Tuesday where 798 whereas the number of writers on Wednesday was 655 which is less than 798. So the given statement is false.
Option C) Each day from Tuesday through Sunday, the
number of riders on the bus was less than the previous day. The number of riders on Wednesday was 655 and the number of riders on Thursday was 773 which is greater than the number of riders on Wednesday hence the statement is not true
Option D) The two days with the fewest number of riders was Saturday and Sunday.
The number of riders on Saturday was 480 and the number of riders on Sunday was 229. Both these values are less than the other values in the table. So this statement is true.
Hence the correct option is D.
Note:
There could be several more questions like this which also ask the mean or median of the given data or the average number of riders on the weekend, e t c.

If 6 • 2k = 36 , what is the value of 4 - 2k ?
Note:
Here, first we divide by 6 and then again divide by 2. We could also have multiplied 6 and 2 to get 12 and then divide the equation throughout by 12. We can divide both sides by any number except 0. A fraction with 0 as denominator is not defined.

Segments OA and OB are radii of the semicircle above. Arc AB has length 3π and OA = 5. What is the value of x ?
A semicircle is formed when a lining passing through the center touches the circle's two ends. As a result of joining two semicircles, we get a circular shape.
A circle is a collection of points equidistant from the circle's center. A radius is a common distance between the center of a circle and its point.
¶Area of a semicircle = 1/2 (π r2)
where r is the radius.
The value is 3.14 or 22/7.

The table above shows two pairs of values for the linear function f. The function can be written in the form 
, where a and b are constants. What is the value of a + b ?
Note:
We can take a different approach to solving the linear equations. The above method is called method of elimination. We may also use the method of substitution; which is finding the values one variable, say a , in terms of b , from the first equation and replacing this value in the second equation to get a linear equation in one variable , b . Then solve it to find b, and use it in the previous equation to find a.
