ALGEBRA B Semester Eam Review The semester B eamination for Algebra will consist of two parts. Part 1 will be selected response. Part will be short answer. Students ma use a calculator. If a calculator is used to find points on a graph, the appropriate calculator function (i.e. zero, intersect, minimum or maimum) should be used. The trace function should not be used. Decimal approimations must be accurate to three places after the decimal point. Unless otherwise specified, the domain of an function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers for which f is a real number. The formulas below will be provided in the eamination booklet.
