2008AMC8试题答案

This Solutions Pamphlet gives at least one solution for each problem on this year’s exam and shows that all the problems can be solved using material normally as-sociated with the mathematics curriculum for students in eighth grade or below. These solutions are by no means the only ones possible, nor are they necessarily superior to others the reader may devise.We hope that teachers will share these solutions with their students. However, the publication, reproduction, or communication of the problems or solutions of the AMC 8 during the period when students are eligible to participate seriously jeopardizes the integrity of the results. Dissemination at any time via copier, telephone, e-mail, World Wide Web or media of any type is a violation of the competition rules.Correspondence about the problems and solutions should be addressed to:Ms. Bonnie Leitch , AMC 8 Chair / bleitch@548 Hill Avenue, New Braunfels, TX 78130Orders for prior year Exam questions and solutions Pamphlets should be addressed to:Attn: Publications American Mathematics Competitions University of Nebraska-Lincoln P .O.

the lettersrepresent numbers that are one less than their ing the key,C is 9−1=8,and similarly L is6,U is7,and E is1.BEST OF LUCK0123456789CLUE=86713.Answer(A):A week before the13th is the6th,which is theﬁrst Friday of themonth.Counting back from that,the5th is a Thursday,the4th is a Wednesday, the3rd is a Tuesday,the2nd is a Monday,and the1st is a Sunday.ORCounting forward by sevens,February1occurs on the same day of the week as February8and February15.Because February13is a Friday,February15is a Sunday,and so is February1.4.Answer(C):The area of the outer triangle with the inner triangle removedis16−1=15,the total area of the three congruent trapezoids.Each trapezoid =5.has area1535.Answer(E):Barney rides1661−1441=220miles in10hours,so his average=22miles per hour.speed is220106.Answer(D):After subdividing the central gray square as shown,6of the16congruent squares are gray and10are white.Therefore,the ratio of the area of the gray squares to the area of the white squares is6:10or3:5.7.Answer (E):Note that M45=35=3·95·9=2745,so M =27.Similarly,60N =35=3·205·20=60100,so N =100.The sum M +N =27+100=127.ORNote that M45=35,so M =35·45=27.Also 60N =35,so N60=53,andN =53·60=100.The sum M +N =27+100=127.8.Answer (D):The sales in the 4months were $100,$60,$40and $120.The average sales were 100+60+40+1204=3204=$80.ORIn terms of the $20intervals,the sales were 5,3,2and 6on the chart.Their sum is 5+3+2+6=16and the average is 164=4.The average sales were4·$20=$80.9.Answer (D):At the end of the ﬁrst year,Tammy’s investment was 85%of the original amount,or $85.At the end of the second year,she had 120%of her ﬁrst year’s ﬁnal amount,or 120%of $85=1.2($85)=$102.Over the two-year period,Tammy’s investment changed from $100to $102,so she gained 2%.10.Answer (D):The sum of the ages of the 6people in Room A is 6×40=240.The sum of the ages of the 4people in Room B is 4×25=100.The sum of the ages of the 10people in the combined group is 100+240=340,so the average age of all the people is 34010=34.11.Answer (A):The number of cat owners plus the number of dog owners is20+26=46.Because there are only 39students in the class,there are 46−39=7students who have both.ORBecause each student has at least a cat or a dog,there are 39−20=19students with a cat but no dog,and 39−26=13students with a dog but no cat.So there are 39−13−19=7students with both a cat and a dog.13197DogCat12.Answer (C):The table gives the height of each bounce.Bounce 12345Height 23·2=23·43=23·89=23·1627=in Meters 2438916273281Because 1627>1632=12and 3281<3264=12,the ball ﬁrst rises to less than 0.5meters on the ﬁfth bounce.Note:Because all the fractions have odd denominators,it is easier to doublethe numerators than to halve the denominators.So compare 1627and 3281to their numerators’fractional equivalents of 12,1632and 3264.13.Answer (C):Because each box is weighed two times,once with each ofthe other two boxes,the total 122+125+127=374poundsis twice the combined weight of thethree boxes.The combined weight is 3742=187pounds.14.Answer (C):There are only two possible spaces for the B in row 1and onlytwo possible spaces for the A in row 2.Once these are placed,the entries in theremaining spaces are determined.The four arrangementsare:ORThe As can be placed eitheror In each case,the letter next to the top A can be B or C.At that point the rest of the grid is completely determined.So there are 2+2=4possible arrangements.15.Answer(B):The sum of the points Theresa scored in theﬁrst8games is37.After the ninth game,her point total must be a multiple of9between37and 37+9=46,inclusive.The only such point total is45=37+8,so in the ninth game she scored8points.Similarly,the next point total must be a multiple of 10between45and45+9=54.The only such point total is50=45+5,so in the tenth game she scored5points.The product of the number of points scored in Theresa’s ninth and tenth games is8·5=40.16.Answer(D):The volume is7×1=7cubic units.Six of the cubes have5square faces exposed.The middle cube has no face exposed.So the total surface area of theﬁgure is5×6=30square units.The ratio of the volume to the surface area is7:30.ORThe volume is7×1=7cubic units.There areﬁve unit squares facing each of six directions:front,back,top,bottom,left and right,for a total of30square units of surface area.The ratio of the volume to the surface area is7:30. 17.Answer(D):The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is2l+2w,so2l+2w=50,and l+w=25.Make a chart of the possible widths,lengths,and areas,assuming all the widths are shorter than all the lengths.Width123456789101112Length242322212019181716151413Area24466684100114126136144150154156 The largest possible area is13×12=156and the smallest is1×24=24,for a diﬀerence of156−24=132square units.Note:The product of two numbers with aﬁxed sum increases as the numbers get closer together.That means,given the same perimeter,the square has a larger area than any rectangle,and a rectangle with a shape closest to a square will have a larger area than other rectangles with equal perimeters.18.Answer(E):The length ofﬁrst leg of the aardvark’s trip is14(2π×20)=10πmeters.The third andﬁfth legs are each14(2π×10)=5πmeters long.Thesecond and sixth legs are each10meters long,and the length of the fourth leg is 20meters.The length of the total trip is10π+5π+5π+10+10+20=20π+40 meters.19.Answer(B):Choose two points.Any of the8points can be theﬁrst choice,and any of the7other points can be the second choice.So there are8×7=56ways of choosing the points in order.But each pair of points is counted twice,so there are 562=28possible pairs.A B CDEF G H Label the eight points as shown.Only segments AB ,BC ,CD ,DE ,EF ,F G ,GH and HA are 1unit long.So 8of the 28possible segments are 1unit long,and the probability that the points are one unit apart is 828=27.ORPick the two points,one at a time.No matter how the ﬁrst point is chosen,exactly 2of the remaining 7points are 1unit from this point.So the probabilityof the second point being 1unit from the ﬁrst is 27.20.Answer (B):Because 23of the boys passed,the number of boys in the class is a multiple of 3.Because 34of the girls passed,the number of girls in the classis a multiple of 4.Set up a chart and compare the number of boys who passed with the number of girls who passed to ﬁnd when they are equal.Total boysBoys passed 326496Total girls Girls passed 4386The ﬁrst time the number of boys who passed equals the number of girls who passed is when they are both 6.The minimum possible number of students is 9+8=17.ORBecause 23of the boys passed,the number of boys who passed must be a multiple of 2.Because 34of the girls passed,the number of girls who passed must be a multiple of 3.Because the same number of boys and girls passed,the smallestpossible number is 6,the least common multiple of 2and 3.If 6of 9boys and 6of 8girls passed,there are 17students in the class,and that is the minimum number possible.ORLet G =the number of girls and B =the number of boys.Then 23B =34G ,so 8B =9G .Because 8and 9are relatively prime,the minimum number of boysand girls is 9boys and 8girls,for a total of 9+8=17students.21.Answer (C):Using the formula for the volume of a cylinder,the bologna hasvolume πr 2h =π×42×6=96π.The cut divides the bologna in half.Thehalf-cylinder will have volume 96π2=48π≈151cm 3.Note:The value of πis slightly greater than 3,so to estimate the volume multiply 48(3)=144cm 3.The product is slightly less than and closer to answer C than any other answer.22.Answer (A):Because n3is at least 100and is an integer,n is at least 300andis a multiple of 3.Because 3n is at most 999,n is at most 333.The possible values of n are 300,303,306,...,333=3·100,3·101,3·102,...,3·111,so the number of possible values is 111−100+1=12.E F 323.Answer (C):Because the answer is a ratio,it doesnot depend on the side length of the square.Let AF =2and F E =1.That means square ABCE has side length 3and area 32=9square units.The area of BAF is equal to the area of BCD =12·3·2=3square units.Triangle DEF is an isosceles right triangle with leg lengths DE =F E =1.The area of DEF is 12·1·1=12square units.The area of BF D is equal to the area of the square minusthe areas of the three right triangles:9−(3+3+12)=52.So the ratio of the area of BF D to the area of square ABCE is 529=518.24.Answer (C):There are 10×6=60possible pairs.The squares less than60are 1,4,9,16,25,36and 49.The possible pairs with products equal to the given squares are (1,1),(2,2),(1,4),(4,1),(3,3),(9,1),(4,4),(8,2),(5,5),(6,6)and (9,4).So the probability is 1160.。
