What is the solution to the equation 6x = 36?

• x = 4

• x = 5

• x = 6

• x = 7

What is the solution to the equation 5x + 3 = 18?

• x = 1

• x = 2

• x = 3

• x = 4

How do you isolate x in the equation x/4 = 2?

• Multiply both sides by 4: x = 8

• Add 4 to both sides: x = 6

• Subtract 2 from both sides: x = 2

• Divide both sides by 4: x = 0.5

What is the purpose of the equal sign in an equation?

• It indicates that the values on both sides are the same.

• It shows the operation to be performed.

• It separates the variables from the constants.

• It indicates the beginning of a new equation.

What is the Distributive Property?

• a(b + c) = ab + ac

• a(b + c) = a + b + c

• ab + ac = a(b + c)

• a(b + c) = b(a + c)

What does it mean to combine like terms?

• To add or subtract terms that have the same variable raised to the same power.

• To multiply terms with different variables together.

• To divide terms that have the same variable raised to different powers.

• To rearrange terms in an equation without changing their values.

Solve for a in the equation -3a + 8 = 14.

• a = 2

• a = -2

• a = 4

• a = 6

Use the Distributive Property to solve: 4( x + 2) = 16. What is x?

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

What is the solution to the equation 8x = 64?

• x = 4

• x = 6

• x = 8

• x = 10

What is the value of n in the equation 56 + n = 61?

• n = 3

• n = 4

• n = 5

• n = 6
