Sample Dominican Army Academy Cadet Admission Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Dominican Army Academy Cadet Admission exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 91+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the value of the algebraic expression 3x^2 - 5x + 8 when x = -2?

A.30

B.10

C.26

D.14

Explanation: Substitute x = -2: 3(-2)^2 - 5(-2) + 8 = 3(4) - (-10) + 8 = 12 + 10 + 8 = 30.

2Solve the linear equation 5(2x - 3) = 3(x + 9). What is the value of x?

A.x = 6

B.x = 4

C.x = 7

D.x = 5

Explanation: Expanding both sides: 10x - 15 = 3x + 27. Subtract 3x from both sides: 7x - 15 = 27. Add 15 to both sides: 7x = 42. Dividing by 7 yields x = 6.

3An army unit marches a total distance of 36 kilometers in 6 hours. If they march for 4 hours at the same constant pace, what distance will they cover?

A.24 km

B.20 km

C.28 km

D.18 km

Explanation: Military marching speed = 36 km / 6 h = 6 km/h. In 4 hours: Distance = 6 km/h * 4 h = 24 km.

4What is the complete factorization of the quadratic polynomial 2x^2 + 7x + 3?

A.(2x + 1)(x + 3)

B.(2x + 3)(x + 1)

C.(2x - 1)(x - 3)

D.(x + 3)(x + 4)

Explanation: Factoring by grouping: find two numbers that multiply to a * c = 2 * 3 = 6 and add to b = 7 (these are 6 and 1). Rewrite 7x as 6x + x: 2x^2 + 6x + x + 3 = 2x(x + 3) + 1(x + 3) = (2x + 1)(x + 3).

5A right triangle has a hypotenuse measuring 25 cm and one leg measuring 15 cm. What is the length of the other leg?

A.20 cm

B.18 cm

C.22 cm

D.16 cm

Explanation: By the Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so b = sqrt(c^2 - a^2) = sqrt(25^2 - 15^2) = sqrt(625 - 225) = sqrt(400) = 20 cm.

6Solve the system of equations: 3x + 2y = 19 and 2x - y = 8. What is the value of x and y?

A.x = 5, y = 2

B.x = 4, y = 3.5

C.x = 6, y = 0.5

D.x = 3, y = 5

Explanation: From the second equation, y = 2x - 8. Substitute into the first equation: 3x + 2(2x - 8) = 19 => 3x + 4x - 16 = 19 => 7x = 35 => x = 5. Then y = 2(5) - 8 = 10 - 8 = 2.

7What is the area of a trapezoid whose parallel bases measure 14 meters and 10 meters, and whose perpendicular height is 6 meters?

A.72 square meters

B.144 square meters

C.60 square meters

D.84 square meters

Explanation: The area of a trapezoid is A = ((b1 + b2) / 2) * h = ((14 + 10) / 2) * 6 = (24 / 2) * 6 = 12 * 6 = 72 square meters.

8What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 3x^2 - 12x = 0?

A.x = 0 and x = 4

B.x = 0 and x = -4

C.x = 2 and x = -2

D.x = 3 and x = 4

Explanation: Factor out the common term 3x: 3x(x - 4) = 0. Setting each factor to zero gives 3x = 0 => x = 0, and x - 4 = 0 => x = 4.

9In a military academy platoon, 28 cadets represent 70% of the total squad size. How many total cadets belong to the squad?

A.40 cadets

B.35 cadets

C.45 cadets

D.50 cadets

Explanation: Let N be the total squad size. 0.70 * N = 28. Therefore, N = 28 / 0.70 = 280 / 7 = 40 cadets.

10What is the value of the trigonometric ratio tan(45°) + cos(0°)?

A.2

B.1

C.0

D.sqrt(2)

Explanation: In standard trigonometry, tan(45°) = 1 and cos(0°) = 1. Thus, tan(45°) + cos(0°) = 1 + 1 = 2.
