A business owner is paving a rectangular parking lot that measures 40 feet40\text{ feet} long and 30 feet30\text{ feet} wide. If the paving costs $5\$5 per square foot, what is the total cost of paving the lot in dollars?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6000

Cevap

6000
The parking lot is a rectangle, so its area is found by multiplying the length by the width (40×30=1,200 sq ft40 \times 30 = 1,200\text{ sq ft}). Since the paving costs $5\$5 for every square foot, the total cost is the area multiplied by the rate (1,200×5=6,0001,200 \times 5 = 6,000). The final cost is $6,000\$6,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total area of the rectangular parking lot.
1,200 square feet
The total area is required to know how many square feet need to be paved.
2
Multiply the calculated area by the cost per square foot.
6,000
Each of the 1,200 square feet costs $5 to pave, so multiplying them gives the total cost.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: indisputable

Cevap

indisputable
The word 'incontrovertible' is formed by the negative prefix 'in-' (not), the prefix 'contro-' (against), the root 'vert' (turn), and the adjective suffix '-ible' (able to be). Together, 'controvert' means to argue against or deny, so 'incontrovertible' literally describes evidence that cannot be denied, making 'indisputable' the correct synonym.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Isolate the prefixes and suffixes in the target word 'incontrovertible'
Identified negative prefix 'in-' (meaning 'not'), secondary prefix 'contro-' (meaning 'against'), root 'vert' (meaning 'to turn'), and suffix '-ible' (meaning 'capable of being')
Deconstructing the word into its morphological components reveals the underlying structural definition
2
Synthesize the affix and root meanings to deduce the literal definition
'Not capable of being turned against or disputed', meaning undeniable or certain
The base 'controvert' means to dispute or argue against; adding 'in-' and '-ible' forms an adjective meaning unable to be disputed

Based on morphological analysis, determine the derived noun formed by combining the prefix meaning 'across or beyond' (trans-), the base root meaning 'to step or move' (gress), and the suffix indicating an action or state (-ion). Which word correctly completes the sentence below?

Aşağıdaki boşlukları doldurun

The commanding officer warned the personnel that unauthorized departure from the installation perimeter would be treated as a severe of military discipline.
Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

transgression
The word 'transgression' is constructed from the Latin prefix 'trans-' (across or beyond), the root 'gress' (to step or go), and the nominal suffix '-ion' (an action or state). In both military and formal contexts, a 'transgression' denotes an act that goes beyond acceptable boundaries—specifically an infringement, breach, or violation of a law, rule, or protocol.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the morphological morphemes specified in the prompt
Prefix 'trans-' (meaning across, beyond, or through) + root 'gress' (from Latin 'gradi/gressus', meaning to step or walk) + suffix '-ion' (forming an abstract noun indicating an act, process, or instance).
Deconstructing the target word into prefix, root, and suffix isolates the core semantic components.
2
Synthesize the components to derive the target vocabulary word
'trans-' + 'gress' + '-ion' combines to form 'transgression', which literally signifies 'the act of stepping beyond' an established line, rule, or boundary.
Morphological synthesis yields the exact lexical entry matching the defined affixes.
3
Verify the contextual and syntactic fit within the sentence
In the sentence, 'a severe transgression of military discipline' accurately conveys a serious violation or breach of rules while satisfying the required singular noun grammar following 'a severe'.
Confirms both semantic precision (breach/violation) and syntactic agreement.

A military convoy must complete a 180-mile route to a forward operating base in exactly 4 hours. The convoy travels at an average speed of 50 mph for 90 minutes, then halts for a 60-minute security checkpoint. What average speed, in mph, must the convoy maintain for the remainder of the journey to arrive exactly on time?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 70

Cevap

70
The convoy has already traveled 75 miles in 1.5 hours, and stopped for 1.0 hour. This means 2.5 hours have elapsed in total, leaving 1.5 hours to travel the remaining 105 miles. Dividing 105 miles by 1.5 hours results in a required speed of 70 mph.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the travel and checkpoint times from minutes to hours.
90 minutes = 1.5 hours; 60 minutes = 1.0 hour.
Speed is given in miles per hour (mph), so time must be uniformly expressed in hours.
2
Calculate the distance covered during the first leg of the journey.
50 mph × 1.5 hours = 75 miles.
This establishes how much of the 180-mile route has already been completed before the stop.
3
Determine the remaining distance to the base.
180 miles - 75 miles = 105 miles.
This is the distance that must be covered in the final driving leg.
4
Calculate the time remaining to complete the route.
4 hours - (1.5 hours + 1.0 hour) = 4 - 2.5 = 1.5 hours.
The convoy must arrive exactly 4 hours after initial departure, accounting for both active driving and stopped time.
5
Calculate the required average speed for the final leg.
105 miles ÷ 1.5 hours = 70 mph.
Rate equals distance divided by time.

Cevap: fail

Cevap

fail
The word 'malfunction' is formed from the prefix 'mal-', which signifies 'bad' or 'wrongly', and the base word 'function', which means 'to operate'. Combining these parts shows that to malfunction means to operate poorly or cease working properly, making 'fail' the correct synonym.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the prefix and base word of the target term.
The word 'malfunction' consists of the Latin prefix 'mal-' (meaning bad, poorly, or wrongly) and the base word 'function' (meaning to operate or perform).
Deconstructing affixes reveals the core meaning of derived vocabulary.
2
Combine the morphological parts to deduce the complete definition and match it with a synonym.
To malfunction means to operate defectively or break down, which corresponds directly to 'fail'.

The motor pool needs to prepare a specialized antifreeze mixture for 56 tactical vehicles. Each vehicle requires exactly 3.5 gallons of the final mixture. The required mixture consists of 3 parts concentrated coolant to 4 parts distilled water by volume. The motor pool currently has 20 gallons, 1 quart, and 1 pint of concentrated coolant in inventory. How many additional pints of concentrated coolant must be requisitioned to complete the maintenance on all vehicles?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 509

Cevap

509
The correct answer accurately calculates the total final mixture as 196 gallons (56 * 3.5). Using the 3:4 ratio, the coolant represents 3/7 of the total, meaning 84 gallons of coolant are needed. Converting 84 gallons to pints gives 672 pints. The inventory of 20 gallons, 1 quart, and 1 pint equals exactly 163 pints (160 + 2 + 1). Subtracting the 163 pints in inventory from the 672 pints needed leaves a deficit of 509 pints.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total volume of the final mixture required for all vehicles.
56 vehicles * 3.5 gallons/vehicle = 196 gallons of final mixture.
Determines the total capacity needed before finding the specific amount of concentrated coolant.
2
Determine the volume of concentrated coolant needed.
196 gallons * (3 parts coolant / 7 total parts) = 84 gallons of concentrated coolant.
Applies the part-to-whole ratio (3 parts coolant + 4 parts water = 7 total parts) to find the coolant portion.
3
Convert the required amount of coolant into pints.
84 gallons * 8 pints/gallon = 672 pints.
Prepares the required amount in the target unit (pints) requested by the question. (1 gallon = 4 quarts, 1 quart = 2 pints).
4
Convert the current inventory of coolant into pints.
(20 gallons * 8) + (1 quart * 2) + 1 pint = 160 + 2 + 1 = 163 pints.
Standardizes the inventory volume to pints so it can be subtracted from the total required.
5
Subtract the inventory from the total needed to find the additional amount required.
672 pints - 163 pints = 509 pints.
Finds the exact deficit that must be requisitioned.
