MAT 092 (Elementary Algebra, Pima Community College)
Final Exam Practice Problems
In July 2016, I tutored a student in MAT 092.
Their instructor gave targeted guidance for final exam preparations, which I used to create this practice page.
Their final had $\,15\,$ questions, similar to the types indicated below.

Here is the course catalog description for MAT 092:
Introduction to basic algebra. Includes translating written statements into algebraic expressions, linear equations, linear inequalities, graphing, integer exponents, and polynomials. Also includes factoring, simple rational expressions, square roots, quadratic equations, and optional topics.

The problems below are labeled to reflect the area they cover.
I hope this page is helpful to others in MAT 092.
Good luck, everyone!
