Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Calculate the value of y when x = 3 for the equation y = 2x + 1.
[2 marks]
2.
Complete the table for y = 3x - 2 by calculating y for x = 0, 2, and 4.
[3 marks]
3.
Choose three x-values that will produce y-values between 0 and 10 for y = x + 4.
[3 marks]
4.
Plot points for y = 2x on the grid when x = -2, 0, and 2. Show the (x, y) pairs.
[2 marks]
5.
Identify which x-values from the list [-3, 0, 2, 5] will give y-values greater than 4 for y = 2x + 1.
[2 marks]
6.
Construct a table of values for y = -x + 3, choosing x-values from -2 to 2 at 1-unit intervals.
[3 marks]
7.
Explain why choosing x = 0 is always a safe starting point when plotting y = 2x + 1.
[3 marks]
8.
Using the equation y = 4x - 3, select x-values to plot so that y-values are positive and less than 10.
[3 marks]
9.
Identify and correct the mistake: The student chooses x = -1, 0, 1 for y= x^2 + 2x. The table shows y-values of 1, 2, 3 respectively.
[3 marks]
10.
Challenge: For y = 3x + 2, choose x-values such that the y-values are multiples of 3.
[3 marks]
11.
Determine x-values where y = x - 5 equals 0, 3, and -4. Show your working.
[3 marks]
