How the MAAP reports it

Mississippi’s MAAP is a state assessment program tied to Mississippi state standards rather than a multi-state shared framework. I could not reliably access a primary blueprint PDF through the provided assessment page because the site blocked direct retrieval, so the structure below is limited to the official assessment family and standards basis I could verify from Mississippi sources and known state assessment design.

Blueprint & weighting

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

A circle has a radius of $8$ inches. What is the circumference, in inches, of the circle?

The circumference of a circle is $C = 2\pi r$ . Substitute $r = 8$ : $C = 2\pi(8) = 16\pi\textsf{.}$

Find the area of a trapezoid with bases $b_1 = 6$ and $b_2 = 10$ and height $h = 7$ .

Trapezoid area $= \dfrac{1}{2}(b_1 + b_2) \cdot h = \dfrac{1}{2}(6 + 10) \cdot 7 = \dfrac{1}{2}(16) \cdot 7 = 56$ .

A circle has diameter $6$ . Using $\pi = 3$ , what is its circumference?

$C = \pi d = 3 \times 6 = 18$ .

Similar triangles $STU$ and $VWX$ have areas $36$ and $9\textsf{.}$ Side $ST$ corresponds to side $VW\textsf{,}$ and $ST = 12\textsf{.}$ What is the length of $VW\textsf{?}$

The scale factor from $\triangle STU$ to $\triangle VWX$ satisfies $k^{2} = \dfrac{9}{36} = \dfrac{1}{4}\textsf{,}$ so $k = \dfrac{1}{2}\textsf{.}$ Then $VW = 12 \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} = 6\textsf{.}$

A rectangular prism has volume $72$ cubic centimeters and height $4$ centimeters. The length is twice the width. What is the width, in centimeters?

$V = \ell w h$ and $\ell = 2w$ , so $72 = (2w)(w)(4) = 8w^2$ . Then $w^2 = 9$ and $w = 3\text{ cm}\textsf{.}$
