Important: Some questions and/or model responses in this test item file may contain
images or graphs. These elements may behave differently across different Learning
Management Systems (e.g., Blackboard, Canvas, etc.) upon import. For any
assessment items that contain graphs or images, we recommend previewing the
question in your Learning Management System before releasing the assignment to
students. Some assessment items may require students to graph their response, so be
sure students have access to graphing software (e.g., Excel) when assigning these
questions.
