Please Note: This A Revision Not A Practice Test. Actual Test May Have Lesser/ More Number of Questions

This document provides a revision of polynomials, functions and relations. It contains two sections with multiple choice and free response questions related to these topics. Section 1 covers degree of polynomials, factorizing polynomials, solving equations, determining if relations are functions, graphing functions, and interpreting graphs. Section 2 focuses on expanding polynomials, finding factors of polynomials, dividing polynomials to find remainders, graphing functions, modeling radioactive decay, finding points of intersection between functions, and sketching graphs. The document aims to prepare students by providing practice questions on key concepts involving polynomials, functions and relations.
