This study used a quantitative approach involving the first graders of eight SHSs in Mataram as the population. The sample was collected by a proportionate random sampling technique, consisting of 350 students for preliminary field testing and 450 students for main field testing. The research instrument was a mathematics diagnostic test, questionnaire, and interview guidelines. The results show that: (1) the diagnostic test instrument meets the qualitative and quantitative content validity, proves empirically fit with Partial Credit Model (PCM), has reliability index of 0.92 (high category), and all items in the diagnostic test instrument are categorized in moderate difficulty; (2) misrepresentation becomes dominant errors if compared with misconceptions, the counting errors, and procedural errors. The errors dominant in the topic domain are Inequalities Linear System Two Variables if compared with Rational and Irrational Inequality One Variable, Equations and Inequalities of Absolute Value, and Linear Equations System Three Variables; and (3) most of the students do not understand how to solve the problem of inequality, determining factor quadratic equations, determining the members of the set completion, problems concerning graphs, and problems that require the capability of language interpretation into the mathematics model.

Data collection using the validated test instrument. Regression equation Y ̂=1,079+0,385X_1 wich means that if the students vocabulary mastery is ignoed, then the ability to write arguments for 1,079. Every adding one point to the vocabulary it will add the ability to write the argument of 0,385 point. Regression equation Y ̂=1,079+0,355X_2 whic means that if reading comprehension is ignored, then the argument of 1,079 skill writing, meaning the reading comprehension is ignored then the ability to write arguments. For each additional 1,079 points in reading comprehension, reading comprehension will add 0,353 points. It can be concluden that the vocabulary and reading comprehension together affect 23,4% of the writing skills of argumentation percent of the value. (koef determinate R2 = 0,234 with the value of the test F = 5,665.
