1What is the derivative of f(x) = 5x^4 - 3x^2 + 7 with respect to x?
A.20x^3 - 6x
B.20x^3 - 3x
C.5x^3 - 6x
D.20x^3 - 6x + 7
Explanation: By the power rule, d/dx(5x^4) = 20x^3 and d/dx(-3x^2) = -6x; the constant 7 differentiates to 0. So f'(x) = 20x^3 - 6x.
2Evaluate ∫ (4x + 1) dx.
A.2x^2 + x + C
B.4x^2 + x + C
C.2x^2 + 1 + C
D.4x^2 + C
Explanation: ∫4x dx = 2x^2 and ∫1 dx = x, so the antiderivative is 2x^2 + x + C.
3If sin θ = 5/13 and θ is acute, what is cos θ?
A.12/13
B.5/12
C.13/12
D.8/13
Explanation: cos^2θ = 1 - sin^2θ = 1 - 25/169 = 144/169, so cos θ = 12/13 since θ is acute.
4The sum of the first n natural numbers is:
A.n(n + 1)/2
B.n(n - 1)/2
C.n^2/2
D.n(n + 1)
Explanation: The arithmetic series 1 + 2 + … + n has sum S_n = n(n + 1)/2.
5If A = [[2, 0], [0, 3]], what is det(A)?
A.6
B.5
C.0
D.1
Explanation: For a 2×2 diagonal matrix, det = product of diagonal entries: 2 × 3 = 6.
6Simplify (x^3)(x^5).
A.x^8
B.x^15
C.x^2
D.2x^8
Explanation: When multiplying powers with the same base, add exponents: 3 + 5 = 8, so x^8.
7The distance between points (1, 2) and (4, 6) is:
A.5
B.√13
C.7
D.√7
Explanation: d = √[(4−1)^2 + (6−2)^2] = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5.
8If 2x − 5 = 11, then x equals:
A.8
B.3
C.16
D.6
Explanation: Adding 5 to both sides of 2x − 5 = 11 gives 2x = 16, so x = 8. Linear equations isolate the variable through inverse operations.
9The slope of the line through (0, 0) and (3, 6) is:
A.2
B.1/2
C.3
D.6
Explanation: m = (6 − 0)/(3 − 0) = 6/3 = 2.
10What is lim(x→2) (3x + 1)?
A.7
B.6
C.5
D.3
Explanation: Polynomials are continuous, so lim(x→2)(3x+1) = 3(2)+1 = 7.
