Practice Questions

Q1. Which result is the correct factorisation of 8p + 12?

A 20p
B p(8 + 12)
C 8(p + 12)
D 4(2p + 3) Correct

Explanation

Factorisation must expand back to the original expression. Since 4(2p + 3) expands to 8p + 12, it is the correct product form.

Q2. Match the instruction with the correct result for 6x + 9.

A Factorise -> 3(2x + 3) Correct
B Expand -> 3(2x + 3)
C Evaluate -> 3(2x + 3)
D Collect like terms -> 15x

Explanation

Factorisation rewrites the whole expression as a product. Karan should notice that both 6x and 9 share factor 3, giving 3(2x + 3).

Q3. A learner writes (p + q)^2 = p2 + q2. Which feedback is best?

A Accept it because both p and q have been squared.
B Ask the learner to draw the square of side p + q and locate two pq parts. Correct
C Tell the learner to memorise the formula without discussion.
D Change the topic to equations because identities are too advanced.

Explanation

The best feedback uses a square area model. Imran can see p2, pq, pq and q2, so the missing middle term 2pq becomes necessary rather than memorised.

Q4. Simplify: 5a + 2b + 3a.

A 10ab
B 8a + 2b Correct
C 5a + 5b
D 8ab

Explanation

Only the a-terms combine: 5a + 3a = 8a. Devika should leave 2b unchanged because b is not the same variable part as a.

Q5. Which statement about expressions, equations and identities is correct?

A An expression must always contain an equality sign.
B An equation is true for all values of variables by definition.
C An identity is an equality true for all permitted variable values. Correct
D Factorisation means replacing variables with numbers.

Explanation

An identity such as (a + b)(a - b) = a2 - b2 works for every permitted value. A usual equation like x + 3 = 7 is solved for a particular value.

Q9. Meena has low vision and uses high-contrast cards to sort terms. What should the teacher assess first?

A Whether her handwriting is as fast as other learners.
B Whether she can group like terms using the accessible cards.
C Whether she memorises every identity before sorting terms.
D Whether she avoids using cards and writes only symbols.

Q10. Assertion: 4(x - 3) = 4x - 12. Reason: A factor outside a bracket multiplies every term inside the bracket.

A Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason explains the assertion.
B Both are true, but the reason does not explain the assertion.
C Assertion is true, reason is false.
D Assertion is false, reason is true.
