✍️ Sample IMSA Questions & Answers
1. Which of the following is a linear function?
✓ f(x) = 2x + 5
f(x) = 2x + 5 is linear because the variable x has an exponent of 1.
2. A box contains 20 items: 8 defective and 12 good. If 2 are randomly tested, what is the probability both are good (without replacement)?
✓ 66/190
P = (12/20) × (11/19) = 132/380 = 66/190.
3. If 5 workers can complete a job in 12 days, how many days will 10 workers take to complete the same job?
✓ 6
This is an inverse proportion: 5 × 12 = 10 × x, so x = 6 days.
4. What is the domain of f(x) = 1/(x − 3)?
✓ All real numbers except x = 3
The function is undefined when the denominator equals zero, i.e., when x = 3.
5. What does a negative slope indicate about a line?
✓ The line falls from left to right
A negative slope means that as x increases, y decreases, so the line falls from left to right.
6. What does the graph of y = x² look like?
✓ A parabola opening upward
y = x² is a quadratic equation whose graph is a U-shaped parabola opening upward.

What Practice Test Geeks adds beyond an AI chat for IMSA
An AI chatbot can quiz you, but it can't reproduce the exam conditions or keep your record. Here you get:
- A timed, full-length IMSA mock exam — 37 questions in 75 minutes with a 70% pass mark, modeled on the official exam's question count and time limit, followed by a score report broken down by exam domain.
- A fixed IMSA question bank: the same test every attempt, so your score is comparable from one try to the next instead of changing with every regenerated quiz.
- Progress saved on your device: completed tests, scores and missed questions stay in My Progress, so you can retake only what you got wrong.
- A printable IMSA cheat sheet you can print or save as a PDF.
- IMSA flashcards built from the same question bank.
- Free IMSA practice tests with the correct answer shown after each question.
