Name and student ID:

1. Real world math review: Prof. Amos Han has a close friend from high school named Jimmy whose
favorite restaurant is McDonald’s. How many calories does he gain if he eats 10 Big Mac’s (600 calories, a
large hamburger known in McDonald’s), 9 large fries (350 calories), 5 bottles of Coca Cola (250 calories)
and three cans of Monster Energy drink (200 calories) for lunch?

2. Polynomials: (x – 5)(x + 7) =

3. Slope: What is the slope of the line that passes between (4,11) and (7,1)?

4. Distance: Solve the distance between (1,1) and (6,13). The actual distance, not just the horizontal and
vertical distance.

5. Complex number: Solve for (1 – 2i)/(3 – 5i)

6. Circle: What is the radius and the center of the circle of (x – 99)2 + (y – 999)2 = 10,000

7. Perpendicular line: There are two lines that are perpendicular to each other. The slopes of the lines are
m1 and m2. If m1 is 1.5 then what is m2?

8. Net change and average rate of change: What is the net change and average rate of change for f(x) = 3x2
– 1 between x = 3 and x = 1?

9. Vertical line test: Is 8x2 a function?

10. Evaluation of function: If f(x) = x2 + 7x + 1, what is f(2a) + f(b)?

11. Minimum: Find the minimum value of 4x2 +9x + 71

12. Rational functions: f(x) = (x + 10)/(0.5x – 1), find f(2)

13. Variations: How many variations are in the equation x5 + 2x4 – 3x3 + 4x2 –5x + 6?

14. Logarithms: Write log1010,000 = 4 in exponential form

15. Natural logarithms: eln(BEEK) =

16. Sum of logarithms: log210 + log2100 =

17. Expanding logarithmic equations: logf(d5/e4) =

18. More logarithms: Remove the natural log and the denominators in the following problem: y = ln(x/m –
sa)/r2

19. Unit circle terminal points: Starting at (1,0), find the terminal point determined by 9π/2

20. Evaluating trigonometric functions: Find the six trigonometric functions of t = 5π/4
