inequalities intro

What is the first step in solving this equation:
5x + 7 = 12

• Divide by 5
• Subtract 5
• Multiply by 7
• Subtract 7

Solve for x:
8x - 10 = -34

• 4
• 3
• -3
• -24

The steps in solving 5b - 6 = 24 are: 

• Add 6 to both sides and divide both sides by 5
• Add 6 to both sides and multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then divide both sides by 5

Solve for d:
-7(6 + d) = 49

• 13
• 1
• -1
• -13

Solve for x.

• x = 21
• x = 7
• x = −21
• x = 4

Write an equation.
A number is doubled, then 9 is added. The result is 23.

• 2x + 9 = 23
• 2x - 9 = 23
• 2x + 9x = 23
  2x + 9x =23
• 9 - 2x = 23

-4 + w = -6

• w = -2

• w = -10

• w = 2

• w = 24

2. Cheryl gets paid $8 per hour for her job at the record store.  She made a total of $96 last week.  Which equation models this situation?

• 96h = 8
• h/96 = 8
• 8h = 96
• h/8 = 96

Write an equation models the following statement:
 17 less than h equals 42

• 17-h=42
• h-17=42
• h+17=42
• 17+h=42

5.  After dropping 5ºF, the temperature was 37ºF.  Which choice models this situation?

• d - 37 = 5
• d + 5 = 37
• d - 5 = 37
• d + 37 = 5
