If f(x) = 2x + 3, what is f(5)?
Show the answer
Answer: C. 13. Substitute x = 5: f(5) = 2(5) + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13. Tip: substitute carefully—exponents apply before multiplication. Order of operations errors are the #1 trap here.
If a = 3 and b = 4, what is the value of 2a² + 3b?
Show the answer
Answer: B. 30. Substitute: 2(3)² + 3(4) = 2(9) + 12 = 18 + 12 = 30. Tip: substitute carefully—exponents apply before multiplication. Order of operations errors are the #1 trap here.
Simplify: 3(2x − 1) − 2(x + 4)
Show the answer
Answer: A. 4x − 11. Distribute: 6x − 3 − 2x − 8. Combine like terms: (6x − 2x) + (−3 − 8) = 4x − 11. Tip: substitute carefully—exponents apply before multiplication. Order of operations errors are the #1 trap here.
