Sample UAJMS FCEF PSA Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your UAJMS FCEF PSA exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 81+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the complete factorization of the algebraic expression 6x^2 - 7x - 3?
A.(2x - 3)(3x + 1)
B.(6x + 1)(x - 3)
C.(3x - 1)(2x + 3)
D.(2x + 1)(3x - 3)
Explanation: To factor 6x^2 - 7x - 3, we look for two numbers that multiply to (6)(-3) = -18 and add up to -7. These numbers are -9 and +2. Rewriting the middle term gives 6x^2 - 9x + 2x - 3 = 3x(2x - 3) + 1(2x - 3) = (2x - 3)(3x + 1).
2Simplify the algebraic fraction (x^2 - 16) / (x^2 - 8x + 16) for all x != 4.
A.(x + 4) / (x - 4)
B.(x - 4) / (x + 4)
C.1 / (x - 4)
D.(x + 4) / (x - 8)
Explanation: Factoring the numerator as a difference of squares yields (x - 4)(x + 4). Factoring the denominator as a perfect square trinomial yields (x - 4)^2. Canceling the common factor (x - 4) leaves (x + 4) / (x - 4).
3If a and b are real numbers such that a + b = 9 and ab = 14, what is the value of a^2 + b^2?
A.53
B.67
C.81
D.95
Explanation: Using the algebraic identity (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2, we rearrange to find a^2 + b^2 = (a + b)^2 - 2ab. Substituting the given values gives 9^2 - 2(14) = 81 - 28 = 53.
4What is the simplified form of the radical expression sqrt(75) - sqrt(27) + sqrt(12)?
A.4*sqrt(3)
B.2*sqrt(3)
C.6*sqrt(3)
D.sqrt(60)
Explanation: Simplifying each radical by extracting perfect square factors gives sqrt(75) = sqrt(25 * 3) = 5*sqrt(3), sqrt(27) = sqrt(9 * 3) = 3*sqrt(3), and sqrt(12) = sqrt(4 * 3) = 2*sqrt(3). Combining like radicals yields (5 - 3 + 2)*sqrt(3) = 4*sqrt(3).
5Rationalize the denominator of the fraction 6 / (sqrt(5) - sqrt(2)).
A.2*(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2))
B.6*(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)) / 7
C.2*(sqrt(5) - sqrt(2))
D.3*(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2))
Explanation: Multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate (sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)). The denominator becomes (sqrt(5))^2 - (sqrt(2))^2 = 5 - 2 = 3. The numerator becomes 6*(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)). Dividing by 3 simplifies to 2*(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)).
6What is the remainder when the polynomial P(x) = 2x^3 - 5x^2 + 4x - 7 is divided by (x - 2)?
A.-3
B.1
C.-7
D.5
Explanation: By the Remainder Theorem, the remainder of dividing P(x) by (x - 2) is equal to P(2). Evaluating P(2) = 2(2)^3 - 5(2)^2 + 4(2) - 7 = 2(8) - 5(4) + 8 - 7 = 16 - 20 + 8 - 7 = -3.
7Factor completely the polynomial expression x^3 - 8.
A.(x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4)
B.(x - 2)(x^2 - 2x + 4)
C.(x - 2)^3
D.(x + 2)(x^2 - 2x + 4)
Explanation: Applying the difference of cubes formula a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2) with a = x and b = 2 gives (x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4).
8Simplify the expression ((x^3 * y^-2) / (x^-1 * y^3))^-2.
A.y^10 / x^8
B.x^8 / y^10
C.y^5 / x^4
D.1 / (x^4 * y^5)
Explanation: First simplify inside the parentheses: (x^3 / x^-1) = x^(3 - (-1)) = x^4, and (y^-2 / y^3) = y^(-2 - 3) = y^-5. So the inner expression is x^4 * y^-5. Raising this to the power of -2 gives (x^4)^-2 * (y^-5)^-2 = x^-8 * y^10 = y^10 / x^8.
9If set A = {x in R | -3 <= x < 5} and set B = {x in R | 1 < x <= 8}, what is A intersect B?
A.(1, 5)
B.[-3, 8]
C.[1, 5)
D.(1, 5]
Explanation: Set A corresponds to the half-open interval [-3, 5) and set B corresponds to (1, 8]. The intersection consists of real numbers strictly greater than 1 (from B's open lower bound) and strictly less than 5 (from A's open upper bound), which is the open interval (1, 5).
10Evaluate the arithmetic expression: 3/4 - (1/2 + 2/3) * 3/5.
A.1/20
B.7/20
C.-1/10
D.9/20
Explanation: First, evaluate the sum inside the parentheses: 1/2 + 2/3 = 3/6 + 4/6 = 7/6. Next, multiply by 3/5: (7/6) * (3/5) = 21/30 = 7/10. Finally, subtract from 3/4: 3/4 - 7/10 = 15/20 - 14/20 = 1/20.
