Evaluate 3(2+4) - 5.
7
13
16
11
First evaluate inside the parentheses: 2 + 4 = 6, then multiply by 3 to get 18. Finally, subtract 5 resulting in 13.
Simplify the algebraic expression 2x + 3x - 4.
5x + 4
5x - 4
6x - 4
x - 1
Combine like terms 2x and 3x to get 5x, and then subtract 4 remains unchanged. The simplified form is 5x - 4.
Solve for x: x + 5 = 12.
17
-7
7
1
Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate x. This gives x = 12 - 5 = 7.
Which polygon has six sides?
Hexagon
Heptagon
Pentagon
Quadrilateral
A polygon with six sides is called a hexagon. A pentagon has five sides and a heptagon has seven.
Find the mean of the numbers 2, 4, and 6.
3
4
2
6
The mean is the sum divided by the count: (2 + 4 + 6) ÷ 3 = 12 ÷ 3 = 4. Thus the average value is 4.
Solve the equation 2x - 3 = 7.
5
-5
7
2
Add 3 to both sides giving 2x = 10, then divide by 2 to get x = 5. This isolates x correctly.
Solve the inequality 3x + 2 > 11.
x < 3
x < 4
x > 4
x > 3
Subtract 2 from both sides to get 3x > 9, then divide by 3 to find x > 3. This is the solution set.
Simplify the expression 5(x - 2) + 3.
5x - 7
x - 7
5x + 7
5x - 10
Distribute 5 across (x - 2) to get 5x - 10, then add 3 to obtain 5x - 7. That is the simplified result.
Calculate the area of a rectangle with length 5 and width 8.
26
16
13
40
Area of a rectangle is length × width, so 5 × 8 = 40. This gives the total square units.
What is the perimeter of a triangle with sides of lengths 3, 4, and 5?
60
12
15
7
Perimeter is the sum of all side lengths: 3 + 4 + 5 = 12. This is the total distance around the triangle.
Find the median of the data set {3, 7, 9, 2, 6}.
5
3
6
7
When sorted the set is {2, 3, 6, 7, 9}. The middle value is 6, which is the median of the five numbers.
What is the mode of the data set {4, 8, 6, 10, 8}?
10
4
8
6
The mode is the value that appears most often. Here, 8 appears twice while all others appear once, so the mode is 8.
Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 12 and 15.
15
3
180
60
Prime factorization gives 12 = 2²×3 and 15 = 3×5. The LCM uses 2²×3×5 = 60 to include all prime factors at highest powers.
Which of the following numbers is composite?
23
17
19
20
A composite number has divisors other than 1 and itself. 20 is divisible by 2, 4, 5, and 10, making it composite.
If a bag contains 3 red balls and 2 blue balls, what is the probability of drawing a red ball?
3/5
2/5
1/2
1/5
Probability is the number of favorable outcomes over total outcomes. There are 3 red and 2 blue, so the probability of red is 3/(3+2) = 3/5.
Solve the equation 4(x - 1) = 2x + 6.
-1
10
5
2
Distribute to get 4x - 4 = 2x + 6, then subtract 2x to obtain 2x - 4 = 6. Finally, add 4 and divide by 2 giving x = 5.
Solve the inequality (x / 2) - 3 < 1.
x > 8
x < 8
x < -8
x > -8
Add 3 to both sides to get x/2 < 4, then multiply by 2 yielding x < 8. That is the solution to the inequality.
Calculate the area of a trapezoid with bases of length 5 and 7 and a height of 4.
24
12
20
48
Area of a trapezoid is ((base₝ + base₂) / 2) × height = ((5 + 7) / 2) × 4 = 6 × 4 = 24.
A rectangle's length is twice its width, and its area is 72. What is the width?
9
12
3
6
Let width = w and length = 2w. Area = w × 2w = 2w² = 72, so w² = 36 and w = 6 (positive value).
A triangle has side lengths 2x + 1, x + 3, and x + 4. If the perimeter is 27, what is x?
5
4.25
4
4.75
Sum of sides: (2x+1)+(x+3)+(x+4)=4x+8; set equal to 27 to get 4x+8=27, then 4x=19 and x=19/4=4.75.

Cheat Sheet

  1. Master the art of simplifying algebraic expressions. Think of combining like terms and using the distributive property as tidying up your math room - you're getting everything in order! With practice, you'll breeze through expressions like 3x + 2x - 5 turning into 5x - 5, making future equation solving a snap. CT4ME practice on expressions
  2. Confidently solve linear equations and inequalities. Imagine balancing a scale: every operation you do to one side, you must do to the other. Solve 2x + 3 = 7 by subtracting 3 from both sides, then dividing by 2, and remember to flip the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative! Core Standards REI
  3. Identify geometric shapes and calculate their measurements. Get to know triangles, circles, polygons and their superpowers - like area = ½bh for triangles or πr² for circles - as your go-to tools for real-world puzzles. Recognizing angles, sides, and radii means you'll never be stumped when shapes pop up in science, art, or engineering challenges. Geometry basics on MathsisFun
  4. Apply statistical reasoning to interpret data sets. Crunch numbers to find mean, median, mode, and range - your backstage pass to understanding any data show. For {2, 3, 3, 5, 7}, the mean is 4, the median is 3, and the mode is 3; these stats help you spot trends, outliers, and patterns like a data detective. Statistics overview on MathsisFun
  5. Evaluate arithmetic operations and number properties. Whether you're adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing, knowing commutative, associative, and distributive laws turns you into a math magician. For example, a(b + c) = ab + ac lets you distribute with flair and simplify complex expressions in a flash. Number operations on MathsisFun
  6. Demonstrate proficiency in problem-solving strategies. Break big problems into bite-sized steps: understand the challenge, plan your approach, execute, then review for any cool shortcuts. Sketch diagrams, list knowns and unknowns, and watch as even the trickiest puzzles crumble under your systematic genius. Problem-solving guide on MathsisFun
  7. Understand the structure of expressions to rewrite them effectively. Spot patterns like the difference of squares - a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) - and you'll transform tough expressions into friendly factors. This insight makes solving quadratics and simplifying exams a breeze, giving you that "aha!" moment every time. CT4ME guide on expression structure
  8. Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. Treat polynomials like word puzzles: line up like terms, combine them, and apply the distributive property to multiply - for example, (2x + 3) + (x - 5) = 3x - 2. Master these skills now and you'll sail through quadratic functions and beyond. High School Algebra on Shuxuele
  9. Create equations to describe relationships between quantities. Turn real-world stories into math sentences: if a car zooms at 60 mph for t hours, then distance d = 60t. Translating words into equations is like building a bridge from everyday situations to algebraic solutions. Core Standards HSA
  10. Reason with equations and inequalities to solve problems. Finding solutions means discovering which values make an equation true; inequalities give you a range of answers, often visualized on a number line or graph. By mastering both, you'll unlock powerful methods for tackling everything from budgeting to physics. Mathed.net REI
