d.140.

Answer 1

Jordan's IQ would be calculated using the formula IQ = (Mental Age / Chronological Age) x 100. Plugging in Jordan's mental age of 8 and chronological age of 10 gives us an IQ of 80. Therefore, the answer to the question is a. 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jordan is a 10-year-old boy who has a mental age of 8 years. To calculate his IQ, we would use the formula:

IQ = (Mental Age / Chronological Age) × 100

Substituting Jordan's ages we get:

IQ = (8 / 10) × 100 = 0.8 × 100 = 80

Therefore, the answer to the question is a. 80.
