Maths study guides

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to the Equations and Inequalities reporting category (about 27 to 35 percent of the test). Covers solving linear equations and inequalities, the flip rule for negatives, creating equations and inequalities from context, rearranging literal equations, and solving rational and radical equations with extraneous-solution checks.

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to the Functions reporting category, the largest on the test at about 32 to 40 percent. Covers function notation, domain and range, interpreting key features of graphs, average rate of change, writing linear functions, arithmetic and geometric sequences, exponential growth and decay, and comparing linear, quadratic, and exponential models.

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to quadratic equations, part of the Equations and Inequalities and Functions reporting categories. Covers solving by factoring and the zero-product property, the square-root property and completing the square, the quadratic formula and the discriminant, graphing parabolas and their key features, and real-world applications such as projectile motion and area.

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to the Statistics and Probability reporting category (about 15 to 18 percent of the test). Covers representing data with dot plots, histograms, and box plots, comparing center and spread, two-way frequency tables, fitting and interpreting linear models on scatter plots, and the difference between correlation and causation.

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to the Structure and Operations reporting category (about 15 to 18 percent of the test). Covers interpreting expressions in context, rewriting by structure, polynomial addition, subtraction, and multiplication, factoring, the exponent and radical rules, and using units and quantities to guide and check a solution.

A deep-dive TNReady Algebra I guide to systems of equations and inequalities, part of the Equations and Inequalities reporting category. Covers solving linear systems by graphing, substitution, and elimination, graphing two-variable inequalities and finding overlap regions, modeling constraints with systems, and solving a line-and-parabola system.
