Re: Algebraic expressions
Unless I'm mentally challenged today this question:
5. If 0.05 x = 1, then x =
A. 25
B. 50
C. 125
D. 250
has an answer of x = 0.05, which is not one of the answers you have listed. Is the question not correctly stated?

Re: Algebraic expressions
this one seems a bit more up my alley
1. a
2. d
3. c
4. c
5. none of the above. x = 0.05. if y / x = 1 then y=x
6. c
7. b
8. d
9. c
10. a
11. d
12. a - though it could be d (abe: c), depending on the measurements of the lengths a and b
13. d
14. d
15. c
16. a
17. b
18. a

I was unsure of a couple of them, but am confident I got them mostly if not all right. I did the maths in my head - so that will be my excuse for any howlers.
