1. Since 2 is a
divisor of both 2
that 2 is a divisor of z. To find out
if there is a greater
even number that must be a
divisor of z, you need to
consider
the
additional
information given, which is that x
and y are both even numbers.
Since x and y are even numbers,
they can be expressed as x = 2m
and
expressed as J = 50 + m,
where m is the number

You can see that the pattern in
the units digits is 3, 9, 7, 1, 3,
and that it will continue to repeat
with every four integers of the
exponent. Dividing 408 by 4
yields 102 with no remainder.
Therefore, the units digit of 33408
will be the same as the units
digit of 334 , which is 1. So, the
correct answer is (A).
5. You may recall from your
study of solutions to
polynomial equations that a
fourth-degree polynomial
has at most four distinct real
roots and that the roots of
the equation are the x-intercepts
of the graph of the
equation. One way to determine
for which of the three
given values of k the equation
will have four distinct
real roots is to graph the
equations using your
calculator.

6. There are two ways to answer
this question. You should be able
to use either method. The first
solution is based on reasoning
about the function
f (x)= sinx. First, you
need to recall that the
maximum value of sin x is 1
and, therefore, the
maximum value of 5sin x is 5. The maximum value of
y = 5sinx6 is then 56=
1. Alternatively, you could
graph the function y = 5sin x
6 and find the maximum
value of y from the graph.

how

should recall that for a > 0, as

16. In this question, you will
need to use your
knowledge of a normally
distributed set of data. In
particular, you should know that
approximately 68
percent of a normally distributed
set of data lie within
1 standard deviation of the
mean and approximately
95 percent of the data lie
within 2 standard
deviations of the mean. The
question asks you to
identify which of the
groups given in the answer
choices is expected to
correspond to the greatest
percent if the handspan
measures are approximately
normally distributed with a
mean of 7 inches and a
standard deviation of 1 inch. You
will
need
to
evaluate
each answer choice in order to
determine which of the
groups has the greatest percent.
