ALGEBRA
Q1

If a + 54 = 5a - 18, then the value of 'a' is...

a. 18
b. 24
c. 12
d. 27
 If a + 54 = 5a - 18, then the value of 'a' is...

Answer: a. 18
a + 54 = 5a – 18

=> 54 + 18 = 5a – a

=> 72 = 4a

=> a = 72/4

=> a = 18
Q2

If 9h - 4 = (16h + 4)/2, then the value of 'h' is...

a. 2
b. 5
c. 4
d. 6
 If 9h - 4 = (16h + 4)/2, then the value of 'h' is...

Answer: d. 6

9h - 4 = (16h + 4)/2

=> 18h - 8 = 16h + 4

=> 18h - 16h = 4 + 8

=> 2h = 12

=> h = 12/2

=> h = 6
Q3

If (4i - 8)/5 = i - 4, then the value of 'i' is...

a. 3
b. 12
c. 256
d. 64
 If (4i - 8)/5 = i - 4, then the value of 'i' is...

Answer: b. 12

(4i - 8)/5 = i – 4

=> 4i - 8 = 5i – 20

=> 5i - 4i = 20 – 8

=> i = 12
Q4

Write 230,000,000,000 in scientific notation

a. 2.3 × 10 10

b. 2.3 × 10 11

c. 2.3 × 10 12

2.3 × 10 9
d.
Write 230,000,000,000 in scientific notation

Answer. a. 2.3 × 10 11

230,000,000,000 = 2.3 × 100,000,000,000 = 2.3 × 10 11

Q5

Evaluate: |4 - 8(3 - 12)| - |5 - 11|

a. 38
b. 74
c. 43
d. 70
Evaluate: |4 - 8(3 - 12)| - |5 - 11|

Answer: d. 70
|4 - 8(3 - 12)| - |5 - 11| = |4 - 8*(-9)| - |5 - 11|

|4 + 72| - |5 - 11|

= |76| - |-6|

= 76 - 6

= 70
Q6

Simplify: 12x3 - 3(2x3 + 4x -1) - 5x + 7

a. 6 x3 - 22 x + 13
b. 8 x3 - 9 x + 13
c. 6 x3 - 17 x + 10
d. 9 x3 - 15 x + 11
 Simplify: 12x3 - 3(2x3 + 4x -1) - 5x + 7

Answer: c. 6 x3 - 17 x + 10

= 12x3 - 3(2x3 + 4x -1) - 5x + 7 = 12x3 - 6 x3 - 12 x + 3 - 5x + 7

= 6 x3 - 17 x + 10
Q7

Simplify: (2x-3y4)3(x3 + y)0 / (4xy-2)3

a.
b.
c.
d.
Q

Simplify: (2x-3y4)3(x3 + y)0 / (4xy-2)3

Answer: d. 70
 Q8

Solve the inequality: -3x + 4 < -8

a. X > 6
b. X < 6
c. X > 7
d. X < 7
Simplify: Solve the inequality: -3x + 4 < -8

Answer: a. x > 6
Subtract 4 from both sides

=-3x+4-4<-8–4

Simplify

= - 3 x < - 12

Divide both sides b y - 3 and change symbol of inequality

=x>4
Q9

Solve the equation: -5x + 20 = 25

a. X = 2
b. X = -3
c. X = -1
d. X = 1
Solve the equation: -5 x + 20 = 25

Answer: c. x = -1
Subtract 20 to both sides

-5 x + 20 - 20 = 25 - 20

Simplify

=-5x=5

Divide both sides by -5

=x=-1
Q10

Write as a mathematical inequality:"9 is less than the product of M and N".

a. 9 < M × N
b. 9 < N × M
c. 9 > M × N
d. 9 < N × N
Write as a mathematical inequality:"9 is less than the product of M and N".

Answer: a. 9 < M × N
