    Factoring: Difference of Two Squares x2 = x^2 Factor:x^2 – 4

    • (x + 6)(x - 6)

    • (8x + 5)(8x - 5)

    • (x + 2)(x - 2)

    • (3x + 5)(3x - 5)

    Correct Answer
    A. (x + 2)(x - 2)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is (x + 2)(x - 2) because the given expression, x^2 - 4, can be factored as the difference of two squares. The square root of 4 is 2, so we can rewrite the expression as (x^2 - 2^2). Using the formula for the difference of two squares, we can factor it as (x + 2)(x - 2).

    Solving Inequalities: AX+B , CX+D Solve for x:-5x - 6 < x + 3

    • X > -3/2

    • X > 11/7

    • X > -4

    • X > 11/4

    Correct Answer
    A. X > -3/2
    Explanation
    To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable x. We can do this by subtracting x from both sides of the inequality: -5x - 6 - x < x + 3 - x. Simplifying this gives us -6x - 6 < 3. Next, we can add 6 to both sides: -6x - 6 + 6 < 3 + 6. Simplifying further gives us -6x < 9. Finally, we can divide both sides by -6, remembering to reverse the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number: -6x/-6 > 9/-6. Simplifying this gives us x > -3/2. Therefore, the correct answer is x > -3/2.

    • (x - 1) (x - 6)

    • (x - 1) (x - 4)

    • (x + 3) (x + 8)

    • (x + 4) (x + 4)

    Correct Answer
    A. (x - 1) (x - 6)
    Explanation
    The given expression is a quadratic trinomial in the form of ax^2 + bx + c. To factor it, we need to find two binomials that, when multiplied together, will give us the original trinomial. In this case, we need to find two binomials whose product will be x^2 - 7x + 6. By trial and error, we find that (x - 1) and (x - 6) are the correct binomials. When we multiply them together, we get x^2 - 7x + 6, which matches the original trinomial. Therefore, the correct answer is (x - 1) (x - 6).

    Solving Equations: AX+B = C Solve for x:19.74x - 1 = -357.8

    • X = 121990/4537

    • X = 3587/40

    • X = -17840/987

    • X = 21124/12765

    Correct Answer
    A. X = -17840/987
    Explanation
    The given equation is 19.74x - 1 = -357.8. To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding 1 to both sides of the equation, which gives us 19.74x = -356.8. Then, we divide both sides of the equation by 19.74 to solve for x. Simplifying the division, we get x = -17840/987.

    Function Notation 1 x2 = x^2 Given the function: f ( x ) = -9x^2 + 2x + 7 findf ( 4 )

    • F ( -4 ) = 102

    • F ( -9 ) = 319

    • F ( 4 ) = -129

    • F ( 7 ) = -326

    Correct Answer
    A. F ( 4 ) = -129
    Explanation
    The given function is f(x) = -9x^2 + 2x + 7. To find f(4), we substitute 4 in place of x in the function. So, f(4) = -9(4)^2 + 2(4) + 7 = -9(16) + 8 + 7 = -144 + 8 + 7 = -129.

    • (x + 12) (x - 4)

    • (x - 7) (x + 3)

    • (x + 2) (x - 10)

    Correct Answer
    A. (x + 12) (x - 4)
    Explanation
    The given expression is a quadratic trinomial in the form of ax^2 + bx + c. To factor it, we need to find two numbers that multiply to give c (in this case, -48) and add up to give b (in this case, 8). The numbers that satisfy this condition are 12 and -4. Therefore, the expression can be factored as (x + 12) (x - 4).

    • X = 3/2 or x = ½

    • X = 1 or x = 2

    • X = -7/2 or x = 9/7

    Correct Answer
    A. X = 3/2 or x = ½
    Explanation
    The given quadratic equation can be factored as (2x - 1)(2x - 3) = 0. This equation can be solved by setting each factor equal to zero and solving for x. Thus, we have 2x - 1 = 0, which gives x = 1/2, and 2x - 3 = 0, which gives x = 3/2. Therefore, the correct answer is x = 3/2 or x = 1/2.

    • M = 10/-13 = -10/13

    • M = -3/2

    • M = -13/-15 = 13/15

    • M = 1/11

    Correct Answer

    Completing the Square 2 Complete the square to get this thing in the form: f(x) = 2(x-h)2 +k f (x) = 8x^2  + 112x  + 393Factor 8 out of the first TWO terms.

    • F (x) = 8( x + 7 )^2 + 1

    • F (x) = 2( x - 5 )^2 – 10

    • F (x) = 5( x + 8 )^2 + 6

    • F (x) = 4( x - 4 )^2 + 1

    Correct Answer
    A. F (x) = 8( x + 7 )^2 + 1
    Explanation
    The given expression is a quadratic equation in the form f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c. To complete the square, we need to factor out the common factor of 8 from the first two terms. This gives us f(x) = 8(x^2 + 14x) + 393. To complete the square, we take half of the coefficient of x (14/2 = 7) and square it (7^2 = 49). We add this value inside the parentheses and subtract it outside the parentheses to maintain the equality. This gives us f(x) = 8(x^2 + 14x + 49 - 49) + 393. Simplifying this expression, we get f(x) = 8(x + 7)^2 - 392 + 393. Combining like terms, we get f(x) = 8(x + 7)^2 + 1. Therefore, the correct answer is f(x) = 8(x + 7)^2 + 1.

    Perpendicular Lines Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line: -8x - 8y = -2 and passes through the point: ( -10, -2 )Find the slope by solving for y.

    • 5x + 7y = 42

    • 2x + 3y = -25

    • -x + y = 8

    • 5x + 8y = -4

    Correct Answer
    A. -x + y = 8
    Explanation
    To find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to another line, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line. The given line has a slope of -8/8, which simplifies to -1. The negative reciprocal of -1 is 1. Therefore, the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1. We also know that the perpendicular line passes through the point (-10, -2). Using the point-slope formula, we can write the equation of the line as y - (-2) = 1(x - (-10)), which simplifies to y + 2 = x + 10. Rearranging the terms, we get the equation -x + y = 8.

    • (x^5) (y^35)

    • ( w^20) ( y^15) ( x^5)

    • ( w^3) ( y^21) ( x^3)

    Correct Answer
    A. ( w^3) ( y^21) ( x^3)
    Explanation
    The given expression is a product of several terms, each containing variables raised to different exponents. To simplify the expression, we can combine the terms that have the same variable and add their exponents. In this case, we have variables x, y, and w. For x, we have x^2 in the first term and x^3 in the last term. When we multiply these together, we get x^(2+3) = x^5. Similarly, for y, we have y^7 in the first term and y^21 in the last term. Multiplying these together gives us y^(7+21) = y^28. Finally, for w, we have w^3 in both the first and last terms, so we simply keep w^3. Therefore, the simplified expression is (w^3)(y^21)(x^5).

    Finding the Slope of a Line Given Two Points Find the slope of the line passing through:( 0, -9 ) and ( 7, -10 )

    • M = -1/7

    • M = -8/6 = -4/3

    • M = 1/17

    • M = -9/8

    Correct Answer
    A. M = -1/7
    Explanation
    The slope of a line can be found using the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of two points on the line. In this case, the coordinates are (0, -9) and (7, -10). Plugging these values into the formula, we get (-10 - (-9)) / (7 - 0) = -1/7. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through these two points is -1/7.

    Function Notation 1 x2 = x^2 Given the function: f ( x ) = -3x^2 + 4x + 3 findf ( 9 )

    • F ( -8 ) = -1479

    • F ( 9 ) = -204

    • F ( 1 ) = -14

    • F ( 9 ) = -85

    Correct Answer
    A. F ( 9 ) = -204
    Explanation
    The given function is f(x) = -3x^2 + 4x + 3. To find f(9), we substitute 9 in place of x in the function. So, f(9) = -3(9)^2 + 4(9) + 3. Simplifying this expression gives us -3(81) + 36 + 3 = -243 + 36 + 3 = -204. Therefore, the correct answer is f(9) = -204.

    Solving Inequalities: AX+B < C Solve for x:2x - 2 > -3

    • X < 5/2

    • X > -6/5

    • X > -1/2

    • X < 1/7

    Correct Answer
    A. X > -1/2
    Explanation
    To solve the inequality 2x - 2 > -3, we can start by adding 2 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the variable term. This gives us 2x > -1. Then, we divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to solve for x. Since we are dividing by a positive number, the direction of the inequality remains the same. Therefore, x > -1/2 is the correct solution.

    • (y^40) (x^40)

    • (y^6) (x^4)

    • (y^20) (x^28)

    Correct Answer
    A. (y^40) (x^40)
    Explanation
    The given expression involves simplifying a polynomial with negative exponents. To simplify, we can apply the exponent rules. When we raise a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. In this case, we have (x^-10 * y^10)^4. When we raise a negative exponent to an even power, it becomes positive. So, (x^-10)^4 becomes x^40. Similarly, (y^10)^4 becomes y^40. Therefore, the simplified expression is (x^40)(y^40).

    • X = -31300/1743

    • X = -5341/26970

    • X = 3094/2007

    Correct Answer
    A. X = -31300/1743
    Explanation
    The given equation is a linear equation of the form AX+B = CX+D. To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. By subtracting 17.99x from both sides and adding 8 to both sides, we get -16.87x - 17.99x = 618 + 8. Combining like terms, we have -34.86x = 626. Dividing both sides by -34.86, we get x = 626/-34.86. Simplifying the fraction gives x = -31300/1743.

    Parallel Lines Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line: 9x - 3y = 7 and passes through the point:( -3, -1 )

    • X + y = -15

    • 6x + y = 11

    • X + 2y = 13

    • -3x + y = 8

    Correct Answer
    A. -3x + y = 8
    Explanation
    The equation -3x + y = 8 is the correct answer because it represents a line that is parallel to the given line 9x - 3y = 7. The reason for this is that the slope of both lines is the same. The given line can be rewritten in slope-intercept form as y = (9/3)x - 7/3, which has a slope of 9/3. The equation -3x + y = 8 can also be rewritten in slope-intercept form as y = 3x + 8, which also has a slope of 9/3. Therefore, both lines have the same slope and are parallel to each other. Additionally, the equation -3x + y = 8 passes through the point (-3, -1) as required.

    Solving Inequalities: AX+B , CX+D Solve for x:-x + 10 < -8x - 4

    • X > 1/11

    • X > 1/2

    • X > 11/5

    • X < -2

    Correct Answer
    A. X < -2
    Explanation
    To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable x. First, we can simplify the equation by adding 8x to both sides and subtracting 10 from both sides. This gives us 7x > -6. To isolate x, we divide both sides of the inequality by 7. However, since we are dividing by a negative number, the inequality sign must be flipped. Therefore, x < -2 is the correct answer.

    • ( a + 4 )( 9b + x )

    • ( 3x^2 + 8 )( 9a + 10x )

    Correct Answer
    A. ( 2y - 3a )( 7x - 9b )
    Explanation
    The given expression can be factored by grouping. We can group the terms as (14xy - 18by) and (-21ax + 27ab).

    In the first group, we can factor out 2y, which gives us 2y(7x - 9b).
    In the second group, we can factor out -3a, which gives us -3a(7x - 9b).

    Now we have (2y - 3a)(7x - 9b), which is the factored form of the expression.

    Solving Equations: AX+B = CX+D Solve for x:-16.84x - 57.16 = 10.1x - 264.6

    • X = 10372/1347

    • X = 1477/4353

    • X = -9884/1857

    • X = -925/27

    Correct Answer
    A. X = 10372/1347
    Explanation
    The equation -16.84x - 57.16 = 10.1x - 264.6 is solved by first combining like terms on both sides of the equation. This gives us -16.84x - 10.1x = -264.6 + 57.16. Simplifying further, we get -26.94x = -207.44. To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by -26.94, which gives us x = -207.44/-26.94. Simplifying this expression, we get x = 10372/1347.

    Equation of a Line Given a Point & the Slope Find the equation of the line: with the slope m = 1 and passing through the point( -1, -8 )

    • -11x + 11y = -77

    • 4x + 3y = -17

    • -2x + 9y = -1

    • X + 9y = 66

    Correct Answer
    A. -11x + 11y = -77
    Explanation
    The equation of a line can be determined using the point-slope form, which is y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) is the given point and m is the slope. In this case, the given point is (-1, -8) and the slope is 1. Plugging these values into the point-slope form, we get y - (-8) = 1(x - (-1)), which simplifies to y + 8 = x + 1. Rearranging the equation, we get x - y = -9, which can be rewritten as -11x + 11y = -77. Therefore, the correct answer is -11x + 11y = -77.

    • X > -3/10

    • X > -9/5

    • X > -7/3

    Correct Answer
    A. X > -3/4
    Explanation
    To solve the inequality 8x - 2 > -8, we can start by adding 2 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with x. This gives us 8x > -6. Then, we divide both sides of the inequality by 8 to solve for x. Since dividing by a positive number does not change the direction of the inequality, we have x > -3/4. This means that any value of x greater than -3/4 will satisfy the inequality.
