The following problems cover: solving linear equations, absolute value equations, and quadratic equations. You will have 45 minutes to complete all problems. Time begins when the first problem appears. If there are two (2) answers for x, write one number comma the second number. (Ex. X = 3 and x= -1, write 3, -1). SHOW ALL WORK AND BRING TO CLASS FOR FULL CREDIT - NO EXCEPTIONS!


Questions and Answers
