7 Mathematics ASSESSMENTS
To the Student Ready Assessments has three assessments. In each assessment, you will answer 40 questions in the key areas of mathematics. For some questions, you will choose the correct answer. For other questions, you will perform a task or write a response. Your teacher will explain how you will do the assessments and record your answers. Be sure to follow the directions for each assessment. As you complete the assessments, read the problems and answer the questions carefully. Use the Forms beginning on page 103 to record your answers to the selected response questions. Remember to fill in the answer bubbles completely. Also, if you change an answer, you must erase your first answer fully. You will write out your answers to the constructed-response questions in the book. While you work on the assessments, use the Tips below. Read these helpful tips carefully. Tips for ing Selected-Response Questions Read each question carefully before you try to answer it. Be sure you know what the question is asking you to do. Cross out any answer choices that are not reasonable. Then choose from the remaining choices. Read the question again. Check that your answer makes sense.

8 On a road trip, Maura drove at a speed of 60 miles per hour for the first two hours. She then increased her speed by 25%. Part A How fast was Maura driving after she increased her speed? miles per hour Part B Suppose that Maura continues to drive at her increased speed. Write an equation to find the additional distance, d, in miles that Maura will travel if she drives at that speed for x hours. Equation Part C Suppose Maura had started out driving at the increased speed instead of at 60 miles per hour. How far would she have traveled after driving for 5 hours at this higher speed? miles 6
