Solve: 2x - 4 = 10.
x = 5
x = 8
x = 6
x = 7
To solve the equation, add 4 to both sides to obtain 2x = 14, then divide both sides by 2 to get x = 7. This approach uses the basic principles of linear equation solving.
What is the area of a triangle with a base of 8 and a height of 5?
30
20
40
13
The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula 1/2 * base * height. Substituting the given values: 1/2 * 8 * 5 equals 20.
Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 2) and (3, 6).
4
2
3
1
The slope is found by using the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). For the points given, the calculation is (6 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 4/2, which simplifies to 2.
What is the sum of the solutions of the equation (x - 3)(x + 2) = 0?
-6
6
5
1
The solutions of the equation are x = 3 and x = -2. Adding these values gives 3 + (-2) = 1, which is the correct sum.
If f(x) = 2x + 5, what is the value of f(3)?
11
9
10
8
Substitute x = 3 into the function f(x) = 2x + 5 to obtain 2(3) + 5 = 6 + 5 = 11. This direct substitution confirms the correct result.
Which factorization is equivalent to the quadratic expression x^2 - 5x + 6?
(x - 2)(x + 3)
(x - 2)(x - 3)
(x + 2)(x + 3)
(x + 2)(x - 3)
The quadratic x^2 - 5x + 6 factors into (x - 2)(x - 3) because -2 and -3 sum to -5 and multiply to 6. This factoring technique is a standard method for solving quadratics.
Solve the system of equations: 2x + y = 7 and x - y = 1. What is the value of x?
8/3
5/3
3
7/3
First, express x from the second equation as x = y + 1 and substitute into the first equation to obtain 2(y + 1) + y = 7. Solving for y gives y = 5/3 and therefore x = 8/3.
Simplify the expression: (3x^2y) / (6xy^2).
x/(3y)
2x/y
3x/(2y)
x/(2y)
Cancel the common factors: 3/6 simplifies to 1/2, one x cancels out from x^2/x, and one y cancels leaving y in the denominator. The simplified expression is x/(2y).
For the function f(x) = x^2 - 4, what is the value of f(3)?
-5
5
9
7
Substitute x = 3 into the function to get 3^2 - 4, which equals 9 - 4 = 5. This shows a straightforward evaluation of the function at x = 3.
If the perimeter of a rectangle is 32 and its length is 3 times its width, what is the area of the rectangle?
64
48
32
36
Let the width be w and the length be 3w. With a perimeter of 32, the equation 2(w + 3w) = 32 gives 8w = 32, so w = 4 and length = 12. The area is width multiplied by length, 4 x 12 = 48.
What is the area of a circle with radius 5?
50π
10π
25π
The area of a circle is given by A = πr^2. With a radius of 5, the area calculates to π(5)^2, which is 25π.
Solve the equation: 3(x - 2) = 2x + 1.
-7
1
5
7
Distribute 3 on the left side to get 3x - 6 = 2x + 1. Subtract 2x from both sides to yield x - 6 = 1 and then add 6 to find x = 7.
What is the sum of the solutions for the equation |x - 3| = 5?
6
8
-2
10
The equation |x - 3| = 5 produces two solutions: x - 3 = 5 and x - 3 = -5, yielding x = 8 and x = -2 respectively. The sum of these solutions is 8 + (-2) = 6.
If 5^(2x) = 125, what is the value of x?
2/3
1/2
5/2
3/2
Recognize that 125 can be expressed as 5^3. Equating the exponents in 5^(2x) = 5^3 gives 2x = 3, hence x = 3/2. This shows the application of exponent rules.
Determine the vertex of the parabola given by the equation y = x^2 - 6x + 8.
(1, -6)
(3, 1)
(3, -1)
(-3, 1)
The x-coordinate of the vertex is calculated using -b/(2a), which gives 6/2 = 3. Substituting x = 3 into the equation results in y = -1, so the vertex is (3, -1).
Find the product of the solutions of the equation x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0.
-21
-10
21
10
The equation factors into (x + 7)(x - 3), which gives solutions x = -7 and x = 3. Multiplying these solutions results in (-7) * 3 = -21.
The quadratic equation x^2 + kx + 9 = 0 has exactly one real solution. What is the sum of all possible values of k?
18
0
-9
9
A quadratic equation has exactly one real solution if the discriminant is zero. Setting k^2 - 36 = 0 yields k = 6 or k = -6, and their sum is 6 + (-6) = 0.
A cylinder has a volume of 150π and a height of 10. What is the radius of the cylinder?
15
5√3
√15
3
The volume formula for a cylinder is V = πr²h. Substituting the given values, 150π = πr²(10) leads to r² = 15, so the radius is √15.
Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 3 that passes through the point (4, 1).
y = (1/2)x - 1
y = -2x - 1
y = 2x + 1
y = -(1/2)x + 1
The slope of the given line is -2, so the perpendicular line must have a slope of 1/2 (the negative reciprocal). Using the point-slope form with the point (4, 1) leads to the equation y = (1/2)x - 1.
Solve for x: log₂(x) + log₂(x - 2) = 3.
2
-2
4
8
Combine the logarithms using the property log₂(a) + log₂(b) = log₂(ab) to get log₂[x(x - 2)] = 3. This implies x(x - 2) = 2³ = 8. Solving the resulting quadratic yields the valid solution x = 4.
