Sample questions

  1. 1.Using properties of proportion, solve for $x$. Given that $x$ is positive. $$ \frac{2x + \sqrt{4x^2 - 1}}{2x - \sqrt{4x^2 - 1}} = 4 $$
  2. 2.Two numbers are in the ratio $5:7$. If 8 is subtracted from each, the ratio becomes $3:5$. Which of the following pairs represents the original numbers?
    • A.15 and 21
    • B.20 and 28
    • C.10 and 14
    • D.25 and 35
  3. 3.Solve the equation: $\frac{\sqrt{x + 5} + \sqrt{x - 16}}{\sqrt{x + 5} - \sqrt{x - 16}} = \frac{7}{3}$. What is the value of $x$?
    • A.16
    • B.20
    • C.25
    • D.41
  4. 4.If $a : b = 5 : 3$, find the value of $(5a + 8b) : (6a - 7b)$.
    • A.49 : 9
    • B.25 : 9
    • C.49 : 3
    • D.15 : 7
  5. 5.If $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}$, which of the following correctly shows that $\frac{ma + nb}{mc + nd} = \frac{ma - nb}{mc - nd}$?
    • A.By applying alternendo and componendo-dividendo to the given proportion, the equality is proved.
    • B.Cross-multiplying the given proportion yields $ad = bc$, which directly proves the equality.
    • C.Adding and subtracting $ma$ and $nb$ on both sides of the proportion proves the result.
    • D.The equality holds because $\frac{ma + nb}{mc + nd} = \frac{a}{c}$ and $\frac{ma - nb}{mc - nd} = \frac{b}{d}$.
