Modeling and Solving Equations and Inequalities

In the equation
x + 7 = 12
7 is being added to the variable, x. How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation? 

• Subtract 7 from both sides. The solution is x = 5.

• Add 7 to both sides.
  The solution is x = 19.

• Multiply both sides by 7 The solution is x = 84.

Jim paid a gym membership fee of $50, plus $20 per month. Jim has paid a total of $290 to the gym. Which equation matches this situation?

• 50 + 20m = 290

• 20 + 50m = 290

• 50 + 20 = m

• 50m - 20 = 290
