Note from the author:
A complete formative lesson with embedded slideshow, mini lecture screencasts, checks for understanding, practice items, mixed review, and reflection. I create these assignments to supplement each lesson of Pearson's Common Core Edition Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry courses. See also mathquest.net and twitter.com/mathquestEDU.

Review Lesson 1-3: Evaluate each expression for a = 3 and b = -5. Match each expression with its value.

  • 2a + b
  • -4 + 2ab
  • 3(a - b)
  • b(2b - a)
  • 24
  • -34
  • 1
  • 65
Question 18
18.

Review Lesson 2-4: Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of each linear function.

  • y-intercept: (0, -1)
  • x-intercept: (-3 , 0)
  • y-intercept: (0, 6)
  • x-intercept: (18, 0)
  • y-intercept: (0, 4)
  • x-intercept: (1, 0)
  • y = 2x+ 6
  • 2x + 9y = 36
  • y = x - 1
