• 55

• 35

• 60

Which is the correct step for solving the following equation?

• add 34 to both sides

• subtract 34 from both sides

• multiply both sides by 34

• divide both sides by 34

Which is the correct step for solving the following equation?

• add 45 to both sides

• subtract 45 from both sides

• multiply both sides by 45

• divide both sides by 45

Jeremiah makes $15.25 per hour. In a month he made a total of $305.

Which equation represents this situation? Let h= hours worked

• 15.25 + h = 305

• 15.25h=305

• 15.25-h=305

• 305h=15.25
