Algebra 1 EOC Practice Problems Overview

Mr. Woolsey guides students through the Alpha One practice test, covering topics like factoring quadratics, calculating midpoints, using calculators for math problems, identifying outliers, adding polynomials, working with scientific notation, and simplifying rational expressions. The video aims to refresh students' knowledge and prepare them for the end-of-course test.

What is the purpose of the reference page during the test?

• To provide formulas and conversions you needn't memorize

• To give instructions on how to use the calculator

• To list all the questions on the test

• To offer examples of solved problems

How do you determine the correct binomial products for factoring a quadratic expression?

• By finding two numbers that multiply to the coefficient of x squared

• By choosing numbers that only add up to the constant term

• By selecting numbers that multiply and add up to specific terms in the expression

• By guessing and checking with the answer choices

How do you verify if an answer choice for a factoring problem is correct?

• By factoring the quadratic expression again

• By working backwards and multiplying the factors

• By using the quadratic formula

• By checking if the factors add up to the middle term

What is the midpoint formula used for?

• To calculate the average of two numbers

• To find the center point between two coordinates on a graph

• To determine the slope of a line

• To measure the distance between two points
