## GED Mathematical Reasoning – Answer Key

1. **B** — \$24,480

*(\$28,800 × 85% = \$24,480)*

2. **A** — 6

*(4(2x−3)=5x+18 → 8x−12=5x+18 → 3x=30 → x=10)*

**Note: The equation actually gives x = 10, so the correct answer should be C, not A.**

3. **A** — 300 cm²

*(Width = 10, Length = 30, Area = 300)*

4. **B** — 18%
*(\$810 increase ÷ \$4,500 = 0.18)*

5. **B** — 15 gallons

*(210 ÷ 7 = 30 miles/gallon; 450 ÷ 30 = 15)*

6. **C** — 6x³y⁴

*(3x²y × 2xy³ = 6x³y⁴)*

7. **B** — 7/20

*(7 blue marbles ÷ 20 total marbles)*

8. **A** — \$120

*(\$120 × 1.25 = \$150; \$150 × 0.80 = \$120)*

9. **D** — 40

*(Mean 42 × 5 = 210; 210 − (38+40+45+47) = 40)*


10. **B** — A line with slope −2 crossing the y-axis at 4

### Final Answer Summary:

1. B

2. **C (correction: x = 10)**

3. A

4. B
5. B

6. C

7. B

8. A

9. D
10. B

**Note:** Question 2 has a mistake in the choices because the correct solution is **10**,
which is option **C**.
