Chapter 7 Review – Equations of Linear Relations

Can you:

• Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form y = mx + b?
• Write the equation of a line in general form Ax + By + C = 0?
• Write the equation of a line in slope-point form y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)?
• Determine if lines are parallel or perpindicular from the formula?
• Calculate the x and y intercepts?

Study Tip:  Two weeks left until the final exam – make sure you are spreading out your studying to avoid cramming last minute. Spreading out your review also allows you to come get help when you run into a topic that you find difficult.

Chapter 6 Review – Linear Relations and Graphing

Can you:

• Identify linear and non-linear relations from graphs, data tables and equations?
• Identify the correct usage of discrete and continuous data?
• Graph relations from an equation or data table?
• State the domain and range of a relation in words, set notation, interval notation, number lines and lists?
• Determine if a relation is a function using the vertical line test?
• Express a relation using function notation?
• Calculate the slope of a line from a graph or data table?

Check out the provincial exam website to get more sample exams. The more sample questions you see before the exam the better prepared you will be for the real thing!

Chapter 5 Review – Factoring and Polynomials

Can you:

• Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)?
• Find the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM)?
• Multiply binomials (FOIL)?
• Factor polynomials by removing the GCF?
• Factor trinomials by inspection?
• Factor trinomials by grouping?
• Recognize and factor special trinomials (difference of squares & perfect square trinomial)?

Chapter 4 Review – Exponents and Radicals

Can you?

• Use a factor tree to determine if a number is a perfrect square or cube?
• Use exponent laws to simplify exponential expressions?
• Simplify problems with negative exponents?
• Simplify problems with fractional exponents?
• Convert between mixed and entire radicals?

Study Tip: The end of each chapter in the text book has a chapter review and practice test… if you haven’t already tried out these questions now is a good time. Don’t forget to check your answers in the back of the book and get help for the problems that you find difficult.

The test took longer than expected to complete, so we will continue writing in class on Monday.
