Original question and givens

Use a synthetic response record and the explicitly declared mathematical rule. A match code reports only rule agreement, not the ability, personality, learning difficulty, cause of error or learning outcome of a real student. a=-3, b=-4, x=0, response=-4. Give (a,b,x,response,a*x+b,match?,rule code).

  • G001 — Use a synthetic response record and the explicitly declared mathematical rule. A match code reports only rule agreement, not the ability, personality, learning difficulty, cause of error or learning outcome of a real student. a=-3, b=-4, x=0, response=-4. Give (a,b,x,response,a*x+b,match?,rule code).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

synthetic response record and a declared mathematical rule

After

check rule agreement,not a learner diagnosis

Conditions: none

These are synthetic records;one response does not diagnose a real learner's ability,psychology or learning outcome.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: synthetic_record_scope · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

a·x := mul(-3, 0)

After

a·x = 0

Conditions: none

Substitute the given input in the multiplicative term.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

a·x+b := sum(0, -4)

After

a·x+b = -4

Conditions: none

Add the constant to obtain the rule-expected value.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · implies

Before

response=-4; expected=-4

After

match=Yes

Conditions: none

This records rule agreement for this substitution only,not the cause of an error.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: substitution_record_match · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · implies

Before

rule agreement=Yes

After

record code=matches_rule_expected

Conditions: none

The code records agreement with the stated rule,not a person-level score or general learning diagnosis.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: diagnostic_rule_code · Uses: G001, S004

Reverse checks

  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute a·x+b with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute a·x with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(-3, -4, 0, -4, -4, Yes, matches_rule_expected)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
