    I think they secretly have kids breaking code for the military. Once your kid turns that assignment in we will know whether North Korea really has nuclear weapons.

    4-10 is just simplifying the expressions, teaching student to combine like terms so they figure out that 4-10b is ... 0.

    4-11 is teaching them to recognize patterns -- in this case, as others pointed out, that the output is the square of the input plus one.

    I've seen a lot worse out of Common Core. These are actually math problems I don't have any issue with.
