Sample Questions

Question 1

What is the value of x in the equation 3x + 9 = 24?

Answer: x = 5. Subtract 9 from both sides to get 3x = 15, then divide both sides by 3.

Question 2

What is the quadratic formula used to solve ax² + bx + c = 0?

Answer: x = (−b ± √(b² − 4ac)) / 2a. It gives the roots of any quadratic equation.

Question 3

If f(x) = 2x² − 3x + 1, what is f(2)?

Answer: f(2) = 3. Substitute x = 2: 2(4) − 3(2) + 1 = 8 − 6 + 1 = 3.

Question 4

What does it mean to factor a polynomial?

Answer: Factoring means rewriting a polynomial as a product of simpler expressions (factors) that multiply together to give the original polynomial.

Question 5

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Answer: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
