Instructions for this test:
You need to have completed all your send in assignments and received feedback on them before you can write the test. Do this practice test as if it was a real test. In other words, without your notes and assignments in front of you. Give yourself 2 hours for the pretest. Show all your work to receive full marks. The answer alone will not give you full marks. The test is designed to take approx 2 hours. The test is divided into two units o Unit 1: Absolute Value and Radicals Part A: Multiple Choice Questions Part B: Long Answer o Unit 2: Factoring Polynomials Part A: Multiple Choice Questions Part B: Long Anwer
