1. QuestionMultiple choice

Simplify 4x+3x−24x + 3x - 2.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 7x−27x - 2.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: Combine like terms 4x and 3x to get 7x, while the constant remains -2.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Combine like terms 4x and 3x to get 7x, while the constant remains -2.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 2x+5=172x + 5 = 17.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is x=6x = 6.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: Subtract 5 to get 2x equals 12, then divide by 2 to get x equals 6.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Subtract 5 to get 2x equals 12, then divide by 2 to get x equals 6.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the value of x2x^2 when x=−3x = -3?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 9.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: Squaring negative 3 gives (-3) times (-3), which equals 9.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Squaring negative 3 gives (-3) times (-3), which equals 9.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Which expression is equivalent to 3(x+4)3(x + 4)?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 3x+123x + 12.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: Use the distributive property: 3 times x plus 3 times 4 equals 3x plus 12.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Use the distributive property: 3 times x plus 3 times 4 equals 3x plus 12.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A function has values f(1) = 4, f(2) = 7, and f(3) = 10. Which rule fits the pattern?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is f(x)=3x+1f(x) = 3x + 1.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: When x increases by 1, the output increases by 3, and 3 times 1 plus 1 equals 4.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

When x increases by 1, the output increases by 3, and 3 times 1 plus 1 equals 4.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the solution to x−8le3x - 8 le 3?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is xle11x le 11.

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: Add 8 to both sides, giving x less than or equal to 11.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Add 8 to both sides, giving x less than or equal to 11.

7. QuestionMultiple choice

Which point lies on the line y=x+2y = x + 2?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is (3,5)(3, 5).

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.

  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

Multiply both sides by 4 to get x equals 28.

10. QuestionMultiple choice

Which statement describes the graph of y=−2x+4y = -2x + 4?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is It decreases 2 units for every 1-unit increase in x..

  1. Identify the quantities: Read the problem carefully and identify the numbers, units, relationships, or representations provided.
  2. Apply the math skill: The coefficient of x is -2, so the slope is a decrease of 2 for each increase of 1 in x.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, estimate, units, and relationship to confirm that the answer is reasonable.

The coefficient of x is -2, so the slope is a decrease of 2 for each increase of 1 in x.
