How the ISASP reports it

ISASP is Iowa’s statewide assessment program administered by the state Department of Education and aligned to Iowa Academic Standards / Iowa Core rather than a multi-state blueprint like SBAC or ACT. The public materials accessible here establish the tested grades and that mathematics results are reported statewide, but I could not locate an official public math blueprint PDF on the Iowa DOE site in the available sources.

Blueprint & weighting

ISASP uses the Independent / state-specific framework (by grade domains structure).

At a summer camp, each camper received the same number of activity tokens and the same number of snack coupons. The camp issued 2828 activity tokens and 4242 snack coupons in all. Which could be the number of campers?

The number of campers must divide both 2828 and 4242. The common factors greater than 11 are 22, 77, and 1414. Only 77 appears among the choices: 28÷7=428 \div 7 = 4 tokens and 42÷7=642 \div 7 = 6 coupons per camper.

Multiply: (53i)(2+i)(5-3i)(-2+i).

Expand: (53i)(2+i)=10+5i+6i3i2(5-3i)(-2+i)=-10+5i+6i-3i^{2}. Since i2=1i^{2}=-1, this is 10+11i+3=7+11i.-10+11i+3=-7+11i\textsf{.}

What is (4i)2(4i)^2?

(4i)2=16i2=16(1)=16(4i)^2 = 16i^2 = 16(-1) = -16.

Given i=1i = \sqrt{-1}, what is 4+16\sqrt{4} + \sqrt{-16}?

4=2\sqrt{4} = 2 and 16=4i\sqrt{-16} = 4i. So 4+16=2+4i\sqrt{4} + \sqrt{-16} = 2 + 4i.

Let f(t)=3e2t+10f(t) = 3e^{2t} + 10. Which of the following approximations, written as a×10na \times 10^n with one significant digit, is closest to the value of f(5)f(5)?

Substitute t=5t = 5: f(5)=3e10+10f(5) = 3e^{10} + 10. Since e1022,026e^{10} \approx 22{,}026, f(5)3(22,026)+10=66,0887×104f(5) \approx 3(22{,}026) + 10 = 66{,}088 \approx 7 \times 10^{4}.

Given that 2m62 \le m \le 6, 1n41 \le n \le 4, and 5p105 \le p \le 10, what is the greatest possible value of m+np\dfrac{m + n}{p}?

Maximize the numerator with m=6m = 6 and n=4n = 4, and minimize the denominator with p=5p = 5: 6+45=2\dfrac{6 + 4}{5} = 2.

A cafe sells muffins in packs of 88 and bagels in packs of 14.14\textsf{.} What is the least number of muffins the cafe can buy so that it also buys exactly that many bagels?

The cafe needs the least common multiple of 88 and 1414 so the muffin and bagel totals match. Since the GCF of 88 and 1414 is 2,2\textsf{,} divide their product by the GCF: 8×142=56.\dfrac{8 \times 14}{2}=56\textsf{.} So the least matching total is 56.56\textsf{.}

Write 720,000720{,}000 as a×10na \times 10^n where 1a<101 \le a < 10. What is nn?

720,000=7.2×105720{,}000 = 7.2 \times 10^5, so n=5n = 5.
