Sample New Jersey NJSLA-Adaptive Math Algebra II Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the New Jersey NJSLA-Adaptive Math Algebra II exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A company's profit from selling x items is modeled by P(x) = -0.5(x - 20)(x - 100). Which statement best interprets the factors (x - 20) and (x - 100)?
A.The company breaks even (zero profit) at 20 and 100 items sold.
B.The maximum profit is $0.50 per item sold.
C.The company earns profit only when fewer than 20 items are sold.
D.The profit is $0.50 multiplied by the number of items.
Explanation: Setting each factor equal to zero gives x = 20 and x = 100, the break-even quantities where profit is zero; the -0.5 only scales the parabola's height.
2Which expression is equivalent to 4x² - 49?
A.(2x - 7)(2x + 7)
B.(2x - 7)²
C.(4x - 7)(x + 7)
D.(2x² - 7)(2x² + 7)
Explanation: 4x² - 49 = (2x)² - 7² is a difference of squares, which factors as (2x - 7)(2x + 7).
3The area of a rectangular garden is A(x) = x(30 - 2x), where x is the width in feet. What does the factor (30 - 2x) represent in this context?
A.The length of the garden in feet
B.The perimeter of the garden in feet
C.The width of the garden in feet
D.The area of the garden in square feet
Explanation: Area equals width times length, so with width x the other factor (30 - 2x) must represent the length of the garden in feet.
4Which expression is a perfect-square trinomial?
A.x² + 10x + 25
B.x² + 10x + 10
C.x² - 10x - 25
D.x² + 25
Explanation: x² + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)² because the middle term 10x = 2·x·5 and the last term 25 = 5², satisfying the perfect-square pattern a² + 2ab + b².
5A concert sells x tickets at a price of $(20 - 0.05x) each, so total revenue is R(x) = x(20 - 0.05x). What does the expression (20 - 0.05x) represent?
A.The price per ticket as a function of tickets sold
B.The total revenue from all ticket sales
C.The number of tickets sold
D.The maximum revenue possible
Explanation: Revenue equals number of tickets times price, so the factor (20 - 0.05x) paired with x represents the price per ticket, which decreases as more tickets are sold.
6Which factoring technique applies to x³ - 8?
A.Difference of cubes
B.Difference of squares
C.Perfect square trinomial
D.Factoring by grouping
Explanation: x³ - 8 = x³ - 2³ matches the difference-of-cubes form a³ - b³, since 8 is the cube of 2.
7Factor completely: x³ + 3x² - 4x - 12.
A.(x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 2)
B.(x - 3)(x + 2)(x - 2)
C.(x + 3)(x² - 4)
D.(x - 3)(x² + 4)
Explanation: Grouping gives x²(x + 3) - 4(x + 3) = (x + 3)(x² - 4), and x² - 4 factors further into (x - 2)(x + 2), yielding (x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 2).
8The expression V(t) = 1000(1.05)^t models a bank balance after t years. What does the factor 1.05 represent?
A.The account grows by 5% each year.
B.The account grows by 105% each year.
C.The account earns $1.05 in interest each year.
D.The initial deposit was $1.05.
Explanation: The base 1.05 = 1 + 0.05 means each year the balance retains 100% of itself and grows by an additional 5%, so the account grows by 5% per year.
9Which expression is equivalent to (3x + 5)² - (2x - 1)²?
A.(x + 6)(5x + 4)
B.(x + 4)(5x + 6)
C.(x + 6)(5x - 4)
D.(x - 6)(5x + 4)
Explanation: Using a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) with a = 3x + 5 and b = 2x - 1 gives (3x + 5 - (2x - 1))(3x + 5 + (2x - 1)) = (x + 6)(5x + 4).
10Which equivalent form of f(x) = 2x² - 12x + 16 most directly reveals the zeros of the function?
A.2(x - 2)(x - 4)
B.2(x - 3)² - 2
C.2x(x - 6) + 16
D.2(x² - 6x + 8)
Explanation: The factored form 2(x - 2)(x - 4) sets each binomial factor to zero to reveal the zeros x = 2 and x = 4 directly.
