What this quiz should check

Topic: Solving linear equations and inequalities in one variable (A-REI.B.3). A good Algebra 1 quiz on this asks students to:

• Solve multi-step linear equations, including ones with variables on both sides and the distributive property
• Solve linear inequalities and graph the solution set on a number line
• Justify each step with a property of equality (A-REI.A.1)
• Solve a literal equation for a given variable, such as A = lw for w

Misconceptions worth a question

• Forgetting to flip the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number
• Distributing a negative to only the first term inside parentheses
• Treating "no solution" or "all real numbers" as a mistake instead of an answer

Teacher tip: Include one find-and-fix-the-error item with a worked solution. It shows who understands the steps and who is memorizing them.

Always check the AI's answer key before you give the quiz to students.
