Cannot say. While the text mentions that ”the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) scientists have identified a number of risks posed to bees by neonicotinoid chemicals used in pesticides” we do not know if these pesticides are the main reason for the collapse of the bee population.

The correct answer is A.

Time = work/rate

In order to calculate how long it would take to prepare 16 thin crusts, we need to divide 16 by the rate of thin crusts per hour.
16 thin crust pies/8 thin crust pies per hour = 2 hours
Similarly, to calculate how long it would take to prepare 4 deep dish pies, we need to divide 4 by the rate of deep dish pies per hour.
4 deep dish pies/2 deep dish pies per hour = 2 hours
The number of hours it will take to complete the order is 2 hours + 2 hours = 4 hours.

Explanation

Answer B is wrong because guided relaxation breaks participants took fewer sick days, not more.

Answer C is incorrect because these facts did not say anything about the breaks causing stress. In fact, they implied the opposite.

The correct answer is A.

Dave, who works at the register, was entrusted with all of the money in the register. Dave and the owner of the store have a legal, employee-employer relationship. Since Dave gained access to the register through his employee status and intentionally took the money with intent to keep it, he is guilty of embezzlement.

Distractors
Answer B: Although Amy’s actions are unethical and she may be stealing from the busboy/girl, they do not fit the definition of embezzlement. Amy and the busboy/girl do have an ethical relationship; however, she was entrusted with the money by a third party. It is only considered embezzlement when the victim is the one who initially entrusted the thief.

Answer C: The fact that Rachel was given permission to try on some clothing at a store, does not mean she was “entrusted with their care.” Furthermore, Rachel and the store owner do not have any legal or ethical relationship. She therefore may be guilty of shoplifting, but she has not committed embezzlement.

Answer D: In order for a crime to be considered embezzlement, one must take an asset, with “intent to permanently deprive its owner.” Since Howard only took the car for a week, he is not guilty of embezzlement.

The correct answer is C.

The passage discusses the M-theory, which is also referred to as "the theory of everything" (first sentence of the first paragraph). We are told about its history, its pros and con, about a method that enables dealing with that con and about the possible future of the theory. At this point you should choose option C as the correct answer.
Option A- While M-theory wishes to unify all physical aspects together, it has yet to do so entirely. The unification is at the basis of the theory but it is not the only aspect discussed in the passage.
Option B- The third paragraph indeed elaborates about this topic, which is an important part of the passage, but it is only a part of the general topic which is the M-theory.
Option D- the text does not specify that.

The correct answer is (D).

Witnesses 1, 2, and 4 all mentioned that the suspect had an accent and witness 3 said that the suspect “stood there silently shooting indiscriminately.”

Distractors

Witness 1 said that the suspect had a South African accent, and witness 4 said the suspect had an Australian accent. Many people are not well accustomed to foreign accents, and may therefore easily misplace one accent with another. Further, to many Americans, South African accents and Australian accents sound very similar.

Witness 1 said that the suspect was screaming obscenities, and witness 4 said that the suspect was screaming that he was sorry. These two statements do not necessarily contradict. One can scream that they are sorry while adding obscenities.

The answer is choice A.

“Append a white-labeled MI-12 form to any paper files you access or check that does not already have one.” – Since the file was accessed between March 27th and May 11th, it was already appended to a white-labeled MI-12 form. Since three months have not passed yet, the label could not have been changed on any Sweep Day.

The answer is choice C.

“If in all three previous months the file was accessed at least once, the MI-12 label must be swapped to blue.” – Since the MI-12 shows that the file was accessed 1 time in April, 5 times in May, and 6 times in June, it would have been labeled blue on the last Sweep Day, which was on July 1st, 2005.

The correct answer is (D).

The second paragraph mentions that "these members are selected through a rotation between all of the platoon's members.” There are at least two shifts for every platoon in a week. Answer (D) implies either that the selection is not through rotation between platoon members, or that Andy's platoon did no more than one shift; both options are impossible.

The correct answer is (D).

Answer (A) is incorrect: "Exchanges must be for equal time and for whole shifts." – Gabe cannot exchange half a shift.

Answer (B) is incorrect: "If more than two members of a platoon need time off on the same shift, exchanges with other platoon members are also permitted." – Jared is the only firefighter to switch that particular shift, which means there were no more than two members that needed a change. Therefore, he was not permitted to exchange the shift with a member outside of his platoon.

Answer (C) is incorrect: "Changes must be for equal time and for whole shifts." – Ryan cannot exchange one shift for two.

The correct answer is D.

We can see from the graph, that the crime in District 1 (orange bar) increased every year from 2010 – 2012, and then decreased every year thereafter.

Distractors

A – The crime rates in Districts 1 and 2 went up from 2010 to 2011; answer A is therefore incorrect.

B- The crime rates in Districts 2 and 3 went up from 2012 to 2013; answer B is therefore incorrect.

C – The crime rate in District 3 went up from 2012 to 2013; we therefore cannot say that the crime rate went down every year, therefore answer C is incorrect.

The correct answer is C.

Three policemen need to respond to a crime with no injuries, while firemen and paramedics are not needed.

The correct answer is C.

When approaching a crime scene, the first step is to secure and protect it (step 6). If the scene is not secured or protected, evidence may be moved or tampered with, which can strongly harm the investigation. Answers B and D can therefore be eliminated.

Step 7 instructs you to record and collect evidence. When investigating a crime scene, the location of evidence can be important and therefore evidence should only be collected after the scene has been captured photographically (step 2), and after a detailed search of the scene has been conducted (step 5). We can therefore eliminate answer A, and conclude that C is the correct answer.

You may also have noticed:

A narrative of the scene can only be prepared (step 4) after the scene and the evidence have been closely examined. This must therefore be one of the last steps.

The word “preliminary” in step 3 indicates to us that this is one of the first steps. Taking a preliminary survey should come before evaluating what kind of physical evidence may be present (step 1).

The correct answer is D.

According to the procedures, when an inmate arrives, his identity must be verified. We are also told that upon receiving the possessions of an inmate a CGR 155 must be filled out. To answer this question, we must find a word that indicates to us which of these two procedures takes precedence. Procedure 5 states, “Immediately upon arrival, the inmate’s identity shall be verified by staff.”

This tells us that before doing anything else, we must first identify the inmate’s identity.

The correct answer is C.

In this question, it’s important to check all the choices to find out which route is the most direct.

The correct answer is B.

The answer is D.

This type of question can be slightly confusing. We recommend that you begin by eliminating the choices least likely to be the answer and then focus on the portraits more similar to that of the suspect.

In this question we can see that A has the wrong nose, B has a different mouth, a different nose, and different eyebrows, and C has different eyes, therefore D is the answer.

The answer is A.

In this question we can see that B has the wrong mouth from the portrait we need, C has both a different nose and a different mouth and D has both different eyes and a different mouth, therefore A is the answer.

The correct answer is C.
