TEACHER KEY
Q1
Linear Functions Identification
Question: Which of the following equations represents a linear function?
Correct Answer: C) \(y = 5x - 4\)
Strategy & Analysis
Criteria: A linear function must have a constant rate of change (straight line) and usually fits the form \(y = mx + b\).
Distractors:
A: Quadratic (squared term).
B: Exponential (variable in exponent).
D: Absolute Value (V-shape).
Q2
Systems of Equations
Question: Solve the system: \(y = 2x + 1\) and \(x + y = 10\)
Correct Answer: \(x = 3, y = 7\)
Walkthrough (Substitution Method)
Substitute: Replace \(y\) in the 2nd equation with \((2x + 1)\). Result: \(x + (2x + 1) = 10\).
Simplify: Combine like terms: \(3x + 1 = 10\).
Solve for x: \(3x = 9 \rightarrow x = 3\).
Solve for y: Plug \(x = 3\) back into \(y = 2x + 1 \rightarrow y = 2(3) + 1 = 7\).
Verify: \(3 + 7 = 10\) (Check!).
Q3
Domain of Square Root Functions
Question: What is the domain of \(f(x) = \sqrt{x - 4}\)?
Correct Answer: C) \(x \ge 4\)
Key Concept
The radicand (expression under the square root) cannot be negative in the real number system. Set up the inequality: x - 4 ≥ 0 → x ≥ 4
Q4
Correlation vs. Causation
Question: Strong positive correlation between studying and scores. Does it imply causation?
Correct Answer: No.
Correlation indicates an association, but doesn't prove one event causes the other. Confounding variables (prior knowledge, test prep, etc.) may influence both factors.
