Big Ideas Chapter 6: Equations

Write the word sentence as an equation. The quotient of a number c and 14 is 5.

• c ÷ 14 = 5

• c • 14 = 5

• 14c = 5

• 14 - c = 5

You purchase w items for $8 each. The total cost is $64. Write an equation that you can use to find w.

• 8 ÷ w = 64

• 8 - w = 64

• 8w = 64

• 8 + w = 64

Tell whether c = 3 is a solution of c + 7 = 10.

• yes

• no

The perimeter of the square is 25 meters. Write an equation you can use to find the value of z. (m stands for meters.)

• 4z = 25

• 4 ÷ z = 25

• 4 + z = 25

• 4 - z = 25

The perimeter of the figure is 72 meters. Solve for x. (m stands for meters.) Only put the number for your answer. Don't include the m.

You spend $44 on a game, receive $30 for painting a fence, and give $5 to your friend. You have $32 left. How much money did you start with?

• z = 2

• z = 4

• z = 8

• z = 10

• n = 24

• n = 5

• n = 36

• n = 1/5
