Solve for y: 2y-6=9

y=7.5

100

Graph a constant function. Label your axes, scale, and the equation of the function.

Answers vary but will be a horizontal line and will have the form y=c.

200

Find the real-valued roots of the quadratic function: y=x2+2x-1.

x= -1 + sqrt(2), 

x= -1 - sqrt(2)

200

Solve for x: 3x^2+3x-6=0

x=-2 and x=1
200

Graph the function y=x^2. Then, find the x and y intercepts of the function.

Will be a parabola and the x and y intercepts are both 0.

300

Consider g(x)=2x. Find g(g(x)).

g(g(x))=4x

a) Does (x-7)2=-9 have a real-valued solution?

b) Solve for r: r2=49

a) No! We cannot take the square root of a negative number and get a real number.

b) r=7 and r=-7

Draw a 170 degree angle.

Will be in second quadrant, 10 degrees above of the x-axis (which is 180 degrees).

400

Simplify: x2(x5)+(x3)3+3(x+6)+5(x+2)2+2x(22)

x9+x7+5x2+23x+38+2x+2
