  1. If aa represents adult tickets and ss represents student tickets, which system of inequalities represents this situation?
  2. The figure shows two cylindrical cans with the same volume. Can A has radius 3 cm and height 8 cm. Can B has radius 6 cm. What is the ratio of the height of Can B to the height of Can A?
  3. Order these distances from smallest to largest: 3×10−43\times 10^{-4} m, 6×10−26\times 10^{-2} m, 2×10−32\times 10^{-3} m, 5×10−55\times 10^{-5} m.​
  4. A line goes through the points (0,2)(0,2) and (3,8)(3,8). What is the equation of the line in the form y=mx+by=mx+b?
  5. A student is working with the expression (3+5)⋅2+4⋅2(3 + 5) \cdot 2 + 4 \cdot 2 and rewrites it as 2(3+5)+2⋅42(3 + 5) + 2 \cdot 4. The student then claims this equals 2(3+5+4)2(3 + 5 + 4). Which statement about the student's work is correct?
  6. A ball is thrown upward and its height h(t)=−16t2+32t+6h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 6 gives the height in feet after tt seconds. The ball hits the ground when h(t)=0h(t) = 0. Which statement correctly identifies both variables and explains a domain restriction?
  7. A car's fuel efficiency E (in miles per gallon) is related to its speed s (in mph) by the equation E=45−s−306E = 45 - \frac{s - 30}{6}. At what speed does the car achieve maximum efficiency of 4545 miles per gallon?
  8. A student says, "π\pi is rational because π=227\pi=\frac{22}{7}." Which statement is true?
  9. Function A is given by f(x)=6x−4f(x)=6x-4. Function B is described as: "It starts at 2 when x=0x=0 and decreases by 1 for every 1 increase in xx." Which statement is true?
  10. Three lines pp, qq, and rr are drawn such that p∥qp \parallel q and rr intersects both pp and qq. All three lines undergo a reflection across line ℓ\ell, then a 45°45° counterclockwise rotation about point OO, then a translation by vector v⃗\vec{v}. After these transformations, which relationship must be true?
  11. A parabola has the equation y=−(x−2)2+9y = -(x - 2)^2 + 9. If this parabola is reflected across the x-axis and then shifted 3 units to the left, what are the coordinates of the vertex of the new parabola?
  12. Line jj is defined by the equation 2x−5y=152x - 5y = 15. Line kk is parallel to line jj and has a yy-intercept that is 4 units greater than the yy-intercept of line jj. What is the equation of line kk?
  13. Rationalize the denominator of 612\frac{6}{\sqrt{12}} and express in simplest form.
  14. Based on the box plots shown, which inference about the two basketball teams' scoring patterns is most supported by the data?
  15. Circle A has radius 4 and circle B has radius 6. If circle A can be mapped onto circle B using a dilation, and then circle B is dilated by scale factor 12\frac{1}{2} to create circle C, what is the radius of circle C?
  16. Maya is comparing two car loans for $12,000. Loan A offers 6% annual interest for 3 years. Loan B offers 4% annual interest for 5 years. Using simple interest, what is the difference in total interest paid between these two loans?
  17. Points A(−2,4)A(-2,4) and B(3,−1)B(3,-1) are plotted on a coordinate plane. What is the distance ABAB? (Round to the nearest tenth.)
  18. A student measures two tiny lengths: 0.00450.0045 meters and 3.2×10−33.2\times10^{-3} meters. What is the sum, written in scientific notation?
  19. Solve the equation: x2=116x^2 = \dfrac{1}{16}. What are all real solutions for xx?
  20. A triangle has side lengths 55, 1212, and 1313. What can you conclude using the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem?
