Solve for x: 7x + 10 = 94
A7
B8
C12
D16
Explanation
Subtract 10 from both sides: 7x = 84. Then divide both sides by 7: x = 12.

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, shown below. Side AB has length 8 and corresponds to side DE of length 40. If side BC has length 7, what is the length of side EF?
A35
B15
C42
D12
Explanation
Similar triangles have proportional sides. Scale factor = DE/AB = 40/8 = 5. So EF = BC × 5 = 7 × 5 = 35.

The circle shown has a radius of 11. What is the area of the circle, in terms of π?
A22π
B242π
C121π
D11π
Explanation
Area = πr² = π(11)² = 121π. (Don't confuse with circumference 2πr.)

The function f(x) = (x + 3)² − 1 is graphed in the xy-plane as shown. What is the vertex of this parabola?
A(3, -1)
B(-3, -1)
C(-3, 1)
D(3, 1)
Explanation
In vertex form a(x − h)² + k, the vertex is at (h, k). Here h = -3 and k = -1, so the vertex is (-3, -1). The parabola opens upward.

If f(x) = 6x² − 6x + 8, what is f(7)?
A260
B254
C266
D8
Explanation
f(7) = 6(7)² + (-6)(7) + 8 = 294 − 42 + 8 = 260.
