Standards basis

New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics (NJSLS-M), aligned to Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M) — New Jersey

How the NJSLA reports it

NJSLA math is built on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics, which closely follow the Common Core domain structure and progressions. The assessment is organized by grade-level and end-of-course reporting aligned to those standards rather than by a separate proprietary framework.

Blueprint & weighting

NJDOE publishes statewide assessment administration information and grade/course coverage, but no official public math-domain weighting blueprint was located in the retrieved primary materials.

A cyclist rode $63$ kilometers in $1.5$ hours at a constant speed. What was the cyclist's speed, in kilometers per hour?

Speed = $\dfrac{63}{1.5} = 42$ kilometers per hour.

Solve for $y$ : $\dfrac{6}{4} = \dfrac{y}{24}$ .

Cross-multiply: $4y = 144$ , so $y = 36$ .

A fabric dye bath uses dye concentrate and water in a ratio of $4$ to $32$ . How many cups of dye concentrate should be added to $2$ gallons of water to make the bath in this ratio? ( $4$ cups $=$ $1$ quart, $4$ quarts $=$ $1$ gallon.)

Two gallons of water is $32$ cups. With a $4$ to $32$ ratio, $\dfrac{4}{32} = \dfrac{x}{32}$ , so $x = 4$ cups of dye concentrate.

A $\text{\char36}200$ hoodie is on sale for $25\%$ off. What is the sale price?

Discount: $\dfrac{25}{100} \times \text{\char36}200 = \text{\char36}50\textsf{.}$ Sale price: $\text{\char36}200 - \text{\char36}50 = \text{\char36}150\textsf{.}$
