    Study Notes

    Multiple Choice Questions (Part 5)

    • Questions will assess understanding of key algebraic concepts and quadratic equation properties.
    • Questions will be primarily focused on identifying correct expressions, solving equations, and evaluating expressions.
    • Expect questions that require recognizing equivalent algebraic expressions, simplifying expressions, or solving for variables.
    • Questions will test knowledge of expanding and factoring algebraic expressions.
    • Questions will evaluate understanding of quadratic equations and their solutions.
    • Example: If '2x + 3 = 7', what is 'x'?

    Calculation Questions (Part 10)

    • Questions will require applying algebraic and quadratic equation formulas to solve problems.
    • Questions may involve simplifying expressions, finding the roots of quadratic equations, or solving word problems requiring the construction and solution of quadratic equations.
    • Focus will be on accurate calculations and the application of correct mathematical procedures.
    • Questions will involve substituting values in expressions and equations.
    • Expect questions involving factoring, completing the square, and solving using the quadratic formula.
    • Examples:
      • Simplify the expression: 3x^2 + 2x - 5x + 7x^2
      • Solve the quadratic equation: x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0
      • Find the value of x in the equation: x^2 - 9 =0

    Direct Questions (Part 3)

    • Questions will focus on conceptual understanding of topics.
    • Require written explanation and justification of methods.
    • Expect questions that test understanding of the connections between different concepts and procedures.
    • Questions may include word problem applications.
    • Examples:
      • Describe the process of factoring a quadratic expression.
      • Explain why the quadratic formula is important
      • A ball is thrown up into the air. The height (h) of the ball above the ground as a function of time (t) is given by the equation h(t) = -5t^2 + 20t. Describe how you would find the maximum height reached by the ball.

    General Exam Structure and Advice

    • The exam will cover topics typically taught in a Grade 11 algebraic expressions and quadratic equations set.
    • The format is Multiple Choice, Calculations, and Direct Questions.
    • Calculators may or may not be allowed. This should be specified on the exam itself.
    • Carefully review all formulas & definitions related to algebraic expressions and quadratic equations.
    • Practice solving various types of problems, including word problems.
    • Understand the steps involved in solving each type of problem.
    • Double-check your work on all calculation problems.
    • Focus on understanding concepts rather than memorizing procedures for rote learning.
    • Ensure clarity and precision in your responses to direct questions.
