Q2. Which expression represents the factored form of x^2 + 7x + 10?

Solution:

The expression factors to (x + 5)(x + 2) since 5 and 2 add to 7 and multiply to 10.

Q8. What is the sum of the first 5 terms of the arithmetic sequence 2, 5, 8, ...?

Solution:

The first term a = 2, common difference d = 3. Sum = n/2 * (2a + (n-1)d) = 5/2 * (4 + 12) = 30.
