Finding an Equation to Fit the Data

This topic appears as much as almost anything else on the SAT. The basic structure of this type of problem is this: here are a few (x, y) coordinate pairs; tell us
which equation fits (works with) these numbers.

Solving Equations

On the SAT, the range of difficulty on problems involving solving equations is pretty high; some of them are really simple problems that could take a few seconds
to solve, while some are particularly tricky. The good news is that most of these can be solved using Desmos if you choose to use it.

Systems of Equations

This is another popular topic on the SAT. Every time you see a question about a system of equations, you can solve it using Desmos.

Exponential Functions

There are plenty of functions on the SAT, and if a certain one isn't linear or quadratic, there's a good chance it's exponential—think growing populations of people
or investments or the decreasing value of a used car. Here, we'll explore what these questions look like.

Quadratic Equations and Functions

If it's not linear and it's not exponential, chances are it's quadratic. You can count on the SAT giving you at least a few questions per test on quadratic equations
and functions.
