1Factor x^2 + 5x + 6.
A.(x + 1)(x + 6)
B.(x + 2)(x + 3)
C.(x - 2)(x - 3)
D.(x + 5)(x + 1)
Explanation: To factor x^2 + 5x + 6, find two numbers whose product is 6 and whose sum is 5. The numbers 2 and 3 work, so the factorization is (x + 2)(x + 3).
2Simplify sqrt(12) - sqrt(3).
A.sqrt(3)
B.2sqrt(3)
C.3sqrt(3)
D.9
Explanation: Since sqrt(12) = sqrt(4 x 3) = 2sqrt(3), the expression becomes 2sqrt(3) - sqrt(3). That leaves one sqrt(3).
3Solve 3x - 7 = 11.
A.4
B.5
C.6
D.18
Explanation: Add 7 to both sides to get 3x = 18. Dividing by 3 gives x = 6.
4Solve |x - 2| < 3.
A.x < -1 or x > 5
B.-5 < x < 1
C.-3 < x < 3
D.-1 < x < 5
Explanation: The inequality |x - 2| < 3 means x is less than 3 units away from 2. Write it as -3 < x - 2 < 3, then add 2 to all parts to get -1 < x < 5.
5Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4} and B = {3, 4, 5}. What is A intersection B?
A.{1, 2, 5}
B.{3, 4}
C.{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
D.{5}
Explanation: The intersection contains elements that are in both sets. The only elements common to A and B are 3 and 4.
6Which statement is the contrapositive of: If n is a multiple of 4, then n is even?
A.If n is even, then n is a multiple of 4.
B.If n is not a multiple of 4, then n is not even.
C.If n is not even, then n is not a multiple of 4.
D.If n is odd, then n is a multiple of 4.
Explanation: The contrapositive of if P then Q is if not Q then not P. Here P is n is a multiple of 4 and Q is n is even, so the contrapositive is: if n is not even, then n is not a multiple of 4.
7What is the vertex of y = (x - 3)^2 + 2?
A.(3, 2)
B.(-3, 2)
C.(2, 3)
D.(3, -2)
Explanation: A quadratic in vertex form y = (x - h)^2 + k has vertex (h, k). Here h = 3 and k = 2, so the vertex is (3, 2).
8Find the minimum value of y = x^2 - 4x + 1.
A.-4
B.-3
C.1
D.2
Explanation: Complete the square: x^2 - 4x + 1 = (x - 2)^2 - 3. Since (x - 2)^2 is always at least 0, the minimum value is -3.
9Solve x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0.
A.-2 and -3
B.1 and 6
C.-1 and -6
D.2 and 3
Explanation: Factor the quadratic as (x - 2)(x - 3) = 0. Therefore x = 2 or x = 3.
10Solve x^2 - 9 < 0.
A.x < -3 or x > 3
B.x > 3
C.-3 < x < 3
D.x = -3 or x = 3
Explanation: Factor x^2 - 9 as (x - 3)(x + 3). The upward-opening parabola is below 0 between its roots, so -3 < x < 3.

EJU Mathematics Course 1 Study Tips from Top Performers

1Master factorization, square-root simplification, and absolute-value inequalities before moving into quadratic graph questions.
2For quadratics, practice switching between factored form, vertex form, and standard form because EJU-style items often test the connection among graph, roots, and formula.
3Use organized counting methods for permutations, combinations, and conditional probability; most errors come from counting ordered cases as unordered or forgetting restrictions.
4Review integer tools together: divisibility tests, prime factorization, gcd/lcm, Euclidean algorithm, Diophantine equations, and base notation reinforce one another.
5For geometry, memorize the right-triangle ratios and then practice applying them in measurement, circle, and triangle-ratio settings.
