    • A. 7√6
    • B. 6√6
    • C. 6√7
    • D. 36√6

  7. Chapter: Order on ℝ – Framing and Approximation · easy

    7. x < y. Which statement is true?

    • A. x − 4 < y − 4
    • B. x − 4 = y − 4
    • C. x − 4 > y − 4
    • D. x − 4 ≥ y − 4
    Show answer ▾

    Answer: x − 4 < y − 4

    Explanation: Adding the same number to both sides keeps the order.

  8. Chapter: Order on ℝ – Framing and Approximation · easy

    8. Given 6 ≤ x ≤ 9, a framing of x² is:

    • A. −81 ≤ x² ≤ −36
    • B. 36 ≤ x² ≤ 81
    • C. 12 ≤ x² ≤ 18
    • D. 54 ≤ x² ≤ 81
    Show answer ▾

    Answer: 36 ≤ x² ≤ 81

    Explanation: All values are positive, so squaring keeps the order: 6² = 36 and 9² = 81.

  9. Chapter: Addition of Vectors · easy

    9. For any points H, F, E: HF→ − HE→ = ?

    • A. FH→
    • B. EF→
    • C. FE→
    • D. HE→

    • D. a = −4, b = 1, c = −8
    Show answer ▾

    Answer: a = −6, b = 1, c = −8

    Explanation: Identify the coefficients: a + 1 = −5, b − 4 = −3 and c = −8, so a = −6, b = 1, c = −8.

  14. Chapter: The Polynomials · easy

    14. For every real x, (a − 2)x² + (b + 2)x + c = 2x² + 4x − 2. Find a, b and c.

    • B. a = 4, b = 6, c = −2
    • C. a = 4, b = 2, c = −2
    • D. a = 2, b = 4, c = −2
    Show answer ▾

    Answer: a = 4, b = 2, c = −2

    Explanation: Identify the coefficients: a − 2 = 2, b + 2 = 4 and c = −2, so a = 4, b = 2, c = −2.

  15. Chapter: Projection in the Plane · easy

    15. p is the projection on (d) parallel to (Δ), with p(u→) = a→ and p(v→) = b→. Then p(2u→ + 2v→) = ?
