Example questions from this paper
A preview of the wording. The answer options and full explanations appear once you begin.
- The nth term of a sequence is 5n − 2. What is the 6th term?
- Solve for x. 4x − 3 = 21
- A sequence begins 7, 12, 17, 22, ... What is the 12th term?
- If x = 4 and y = 6, what is the value of 5x − 2y?
- A sequence starts at 1 and the rule is "double, then add 2". What is the 4th term?
Before you begin, remember
- To solve an equation, do the same thing to both sides and work backwards through the operations. If the equation built up by multiplying then adding, undo it by subtracting then dividing.
- For the nth term of a linear sequence, the common difference is the number in front of n. If the sequence goes up in 4s, the rule starts 4n, and you then adjust by a constant.
