1Find the minimum value of the quadratic function $f(x) = 2x^2 - 8x + 5$ by completing the square.
A.$-3$
B.$5$
C.$-8$
D.$3$
Explanation: Completing the square gives $f(x) = 2(x^2 - 4x) + 5 = 2(x-2)^2 - 8 + 5 = 2(x-2)^2 - 3$. Since $2(x-2)^2 \ge 0$, the minimum value is $-3$ when $x = 2$.
2Find the positive value of $k$ for which the quadratic equation $3x^2 - kx + 12 = 0$ has two equal real roots.
A.$6$
B.$12$
C.$144$
D.$36$
Explanation: For two equal real roots, the discriminant must be zero: $b^2 - 4ac = 0 \implies (-k)^2 - 4(3)(12) = 0 \implies k^2 - 144 = 0 \implies k = 12$ (since $k > 0$).
3Simplify the surd expression $\sqrt{75} - \sqrt{27} + \sqrt{12}$.
A.$2\sqrt{3}$
B.$5\sqrt{3}$
C.$4\sqrt{3}$
D.$6\sqrt{3}$
Explanation: Expressing each term in simplest surd form gives $\sqrt{75} = 5\sqrt{3}$, $\sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt{3}$, and $\sqrt{12} = 2\sqrt{3}$. Thus, $5\sqrt{3} - 3\sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{3} = 4\sqrt{3}$.
4Express $\frac{6}{3 - \sqrt{3}}$ in the form $a + b\sqrt{3}$, where $a$ and $b$ are integers.
A.$2 + \sqrt{3}$
B.$3 - \sqrt{3}$
C.$6 + 2\sqrt{3}$
D.$3 + \sqrt{3}$
Explanation: Multiply numerator and denominator by conjugate $(3 + \sqrt{3})$: $\frac{6(3 + \sqrt{3})}{(3 - \sqrt{3})(3 + \sqrt{3})} = \frac{18 + 6\sqrt{3}}{9 - 3} = \frac{18 + 6\sqrt{3}}{6} = 3 + \sqrt{3}$.
5Find the remainder when $f(x) = 2x^3 - 3x^2 + x - 5$ is divided by $x - 2$.
A.$1$
B.$-1$
C.$3$
D.$-5$
Explanation: By the Remainder Theorem, the remainder is $f(2) = 2(2)^3 - 3(2)^2 + (2) - 5 = 16 - 12 + 2 - 5 = 1$.
6Solve the logarithmic equation $\log_2(x) + \log_2(x-2) = 3$ for real $x$.
A.$x = -2$
B.$x = 4$
C.$x = 4$ or $x = -2$
D.$x = 5$
Explanation: Combine logs using product law: $\log_2[x(x-2)] = 3 \implies x^2 - 2x = 2^3 = 8 \implies x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0 \implies (x-4)(x+2) = 0$. Since $\log_2(x)$ requires $x > 2$, $x = 4$ is the only valid solution.
7Solve the exponential equation $3^{2x-1} = 27$ for $x$.
A.$x = 3$
B.$x = 1.5$
C.$x = 2$
D.$x = 4$
Explanation: Express $27$ as $3^3$: $3^{2x-1} = 3^3 \implies 2x - 1 = 3 \implies 2x = 4 \implies x = 2$.
8Solve the quadratic inequality $x^2 - 5x + 6 \le 0$.
A.$x \le -3$ or $x \ge -2$
B.$x \le 2$ or $x \ge 3$
C.$-3 \le x \le -2$
D.$2 \le x \le 3$
Explanation: Factorize the quadratic expression: $(x-2)(x-3) \le 0$. The roots are $x=2$ and $x=3$. For the parabolic curve to be below or on the $x$-axis, $2 \le x \le 3$.
9If $(x + 1)$ is a factor of $f(x) = x^3 + kx^2 - 4x - 6$, find the value of $k$.
A.$3$
B.$-3$
C.$1$
D.$9$
Explanation: By the Factor Theorem, $f(-1) = 0 \implies (-1)^3 + k(-1)^2 - 4(-1) - 6 = 0 \implies -1 + k + 4 - 6 = 0 \implies k - 3 = 0 \implies k = 3$.
10Evaluate $\log_3(81) + \log_2(32)$.
A.$8$
B.$9$
C.$12$
D.$7$
Explanation: Since $3^4 = 81$, $\log_3(81) = 4$. Since $2^5 = 32$, $\log_2(32) = 5$. Thus, $\log_3(81) + \log_2(32) = 4 + 5 = 9$.
