Algebra 1 Semester 2 Final Exam Review

The school that Stefan goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. The school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen tickets and 2 child tickets. Which system of equations can be used to determine s, the number of senior citizen tickets sold and c, the number of children tickets sold?

• 1s + 3c = 38

  2s + 3c = 52

• 3s + 1c = 38

  3s + 2c = 52

• s + c = 38

  s + c = 52

• 3s + 3c = 38

  1s + 2c = 52

Add or Subtract to Simplify:
(5x + x² - 4) - (4x - x² + 6)

• 2x² + x + 2 
• x + 2
• 2x² + x - 10 
• x - 10 

Find the factors

16xy - 24y

• 4y (4x - 6)

• 8y (2xy - 3y)

• 8y (2x - 3)

• 2xy (8 - 12y)

Which system of inequalities matches the graph?

• y > 2x - 4
  y < 2
• y < 2x - 4
  y < 2
• y > 2x - 4
  y <  2 
• y < 2x - 4
  y <   -2

Solve
x² + 9x + 20 = 0

• x = -2, x = -10
• x = -3, x = -4
• x = -4, x = -5
• x = -4, x = -6

Factor the Trinomial:
x² - 8x + 15

• (x + 5) ( x + 3)
• (x - 5) (x - 3)
• (x + 15) (x - 1)
• (x - 7) (x - 8)

The mode is the number ________________________.

• you see most

• you see least

• you don't see

• you see first

What is the axis of symmetry for this graph?

• y=2
• x=2
• x=0
• y=0

Simplify:

3a( 5a² + 8a + 2 )

• 15a³ + 24a² + 6a

• 10a³ + 24a + 6

• 8a³ + 11a² + 6a

• 15a² + 24a + 6

Consider the graph shown.

Which statement best describes the vertex of the function?

• The vertex is a maximum located at (-5,4)

• The vertex is a maximum located at (4,-5).

• The vertex is a minimum located at (-5,4).

• The vertex is a minimum located at (4,-5).
