  1. What is the value of |−15| + |−3|?

    Answer: 18

    Absolute value makes both terms positive: 15 + 3 = 18.

  2. Simplify: (3x²)(4x³)

    Answer: 12x⁵

    Multiply coefficients (3·4=12) and add exponents (2+3=5) to get 12x⁵.

  3. What is 15% of 240?

    Answer: 36

    0.15 × 240 = 36.

  4. Which of the following is equivalent to 2⁻³?

    Answer: 1/8

    A negative exponent means take the reciprocal: 2⁻³ = 1/2³ = 1/8.

  5. If 5x − 7 = 3x + 9, what is x?

    Answer: 8

    Subtract 3x and add 7 to both sides: 2x = 16, so x = 8.

  6. What is the slope of the line passing through (2, 5) and (6, 13)?

    Answer: 2

    Slope = (13−5)/(6−2) = 8/4 = 2.

  7. Evaluate: 4! ÷ 2!

    Answer: 12

    4! = 24 and 2! = 2, so 24 ÷ 2 = 12.
