P MATH 10 REVIEW FOR TEST #2

Factoring — algebraic fractions —equations

This review assumes that students have already thoroughly reviewed the content of the three papers and gone over their hand-in assignments.

I Factoring

2y^2 + 9y + 9	3m^2 + 10m + 3	5t^2 + 7t + 2
2x^2 + 11x + 14	2x^2 – 5x – 3	3x^2 – 5x + 2
6m^2 – 13m + 6	2x^2 – x – 6	6x^2 – 5x – 4

II Factoring

x^2 – 9	1 – 16t + 64t^2	225b^2 – a^2
y^3 – 36y	81x^4 – 1	8x^2 + 24x + 18
3b – 9ab^2 + 6a^2b	x^4 – 13x^2 + 36	4m^2 + 20mn + 25n^2

III For what values are the following not defined?

IV Simplify:

V Multiply — divide

VI Add—subtract

VII SOLVING EQUATIONS

2(2x+1) + 6(2-x) + 3(3x – 1) = –3

SOLVE FOR x

2ax = b ax + by = 3 2(X + 3) = X – B

VOLUME and AREA

In Gulliver’s travels he comes to a land where all people are 12 times as tall. How many times as heavy are they? The strength of their bones is related to the cross sectional area of the bones. How many times stronger are these giants?
