  1. A student is asked to find the slope of the line passing through (2, 5) and (6, 13). What is the correct slope?

    Answer: 2

    Slope = (13 - 5) / (6 - 2) = 8 / 4 = 2.

  2. Which property is demonstrated by the equation 3 × (4 + 5) = 3 × 4 + 3 × 5?

    Answer: Distributive property

    The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac.

  3. A rectangle has a length of 12 cm and a width of 7 cm. What is its area?

    Answer: 84 cm²

    Area of a rectangle = length × width = 12 × 7 = 84 cm².

  4. Which of the following is an irrational number?

    Answer: √7

    √7 cannot be expressed as a simple fraction, making it irrational; the others simplify to whole numbers.

  5. If 4x − 3 = 17, what is the value of x?

    Answer: 5

    Adding 3 to both sides gives 4x = 20, then dividing by 4 gives x = 5.

  6. A bag contains 4 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 5 green marbles. What is the probability of randomly selecting a blue marble?

    Answer: 3/12

    Probability = 3 blue / 12 total = 3/12 = 1/4.
