Instructions: Read the given questions carefully. Choose and provide the correct answer.

Read and analyze the paragraph below then answer item numbers 1 -3.
A landscaping company calculates the total cost (in thousands of pesos) for a project based
on the area x (in square meters) they need to landscape. The cost is modeled by the
polynomial function: C(x)=0.1x2+3x+10 where C(x) represents the total cost in thousand
pesos, and x is the area in square meters.

Item Number 1
What does the 3x term represent in the function C(x)=0.1x2+3x+10C?
A. A one-time setup fee for the landscaping project
B. The variable cost that increases with the area
C. The total cost of the project
D. The amount charged for every 100 square meters

Item Number 2
What is the fixed cost of the landscaping project, regardless of the area landscaped?
A. 3 thousand pesos
B. 10 thousand pesos
C. 100 thousand pesos
D. 1 million pesos

Item Number 3
Based on the function C(x)=0.1x2+3x+10, how does the total cost change as the area x increases?
A. The cost remains constant regardless of area.
B. The cost increases at a constant rate as the area grows.
C. The cost decreases as the area grows.
D. The cost accelerates as the area grows.

Read and analyze the paragraph below then answer item numbers 4 - 7.
A company tracks its annual profit (in thousands of pesos) based on its years in operation.
The profit P(t), where t represents the years since the company started, is modeled by the
polynomial function: P(t)=−0.1t3+1.2t2+5t−20. This function helps the company predict profit
trends over time.

Item Number 4
Which of the following correctly describes the graph’s end behavior, given the function
P(t)=−0.1t3+1.2t2+5t−20?
A. Both ends of the graph will rise as t increases.
B. The left end of the graph rises, and the right end falls.
C. Both ends of the graph will fall as t increases.
D. The left end of the graph falls, and the right end rises.

Item Number 5
Given the function P(t)=−0.1t3+1.2t2+5t−20, what is the maximum number of turning points the graph
can have?
A. 1
B. 2
 C. 3
D. 4

Item Number 6
Based on the function P(t)=−0.1t 3+1.2t2+5t−20, which of the following best describes the company’s
profit as time progresses in the long term?
A. The profit will rise indefinitely.
B. The profit will fall indefinitely.
C. The profit will remain constant.
D. The profit will fluctuate without a clear trend.

Item Number 7
Suppose the company notices that its profit first increases, then decreases, and finally increases
again within the first 10 years. Which feature of the graph best explains this pattern?
A. The graph has no turning points in the first 10 years.
B. The graph has only one turning point in the first 10 years.
C. The graph has two turning points in the first 10 years.
D. The graph fluctuates randomly in the first 10 years.

Read and analyze the paragraph below then answer item numbers 8 -11.
A company is modeling the sales of a new product using the polynomial function
S(t)=−0.2t3+2t2+15t+100 where S(t)) represents the sales (in thousands of units) and t represents
time in months since the product launch. The company wants to analyze trends and predict sales
over time.

Item Number 8
Based on the function S(t)=−0.2t3+2t2+15t+100S, what does the negative coefficient of t 3 indicate
about the long-term trend in sales?
A. Sales will continue to rise indefinitely as time increases.
B. Sales will level off over time.
C. Sales will initially rise, then eventually fall.
D. Sales will decrease to zero immediately.

Item Number 9
The company notices that sales initially increase after launch but later start to decline. At
approximately what month will sales reach their peak?
A. Between 5 and 10 months
B. Between 10 and 15 months
C. At exactly 15 months
D. Sales do not peak; they decrease continuously

Item Number 10
Using the function S(t)=−0.2t3+2t2+15t+100, what are the sales (in thousands of units) after 5
months?
A. 135
B. 150
C. 175
D. 200
Item Number 11
The company wants to know approximately how many months after the launch sales will reach
200,000 units. Using the equation S(t)=200, find the approximate value of t that satisfies this
equation.
A. About 4 months
B. About 8 months
C. About 12 months
D. About 15 months

Read and analyze the paragraph below then answer item numbers 12 -14.
A designer is working on a circular garden and needs to understand how angles and
distances within the circle relate to each other. The garden has a central fountain at point O,
and points A, B, and C are marked along the garden’s circular edge.

Item Number 12

edge, what type of angle is ∠AOB when measured at the center?

If the designer creates a path from point O (the center of the circle) to points A and B on the garden

A. Central angle
B. Inscribed angle
C. Right angle
D. Chord angle

Item Number 13

∠AOB and ∠ACB subtend the same arc AB. How does the measure of ∠ACB (inscribed angle)

compare to ∠AOB(central angle)?

A. ∠ACB is twice the measure of ∠AOB.
B. ∠ACB is half the measure of ∠AOB.
C. ∠ACB and ∠AOB are equal.

A. A line that touches the circle at exactly one point.
B. A line that intersects the circle at exactly two points.
C. A line that passes through the center of the circle.
