Solving and Writing Equations and Inequalities

Solve for x.
5x + 8 = 23

• x = 8
• x = 3
• x = 18
• x = 6

Solve for p.
-2p - 4 = 2

• p = 3
• p = -1
• p = 8
• p = -3

Solve for c. 

• c = 4
• c = 5
• c = - 8
• c = - 2

Writing Equations
Maureen wants to buy a $198 camera. She has $30 and plans to save $12 each week. In how many weeks will she be able to buy the camera? 

• 30 + 12x = 198
• 30 - 12x = 198
• 12 + 30x = 198
• 12 - 30x = 198

Writing Equations
Tony carried 5 identical baseball bats to a ball game inside a carrying case weighing 12 ounces. The combined weight of the bats and the case was 162 ounces. How much did each bat weigh?

• 12x + 5 = 162
• 12x - 5 = 162
• 5x +12 = 162
• 5x - 12 = 162

Writing Inequalities
Ten times a number increased by four is no more than twenty-five.

• 10k - 4 < 25
• 10k + 4 > 25
• 10k + 4 = 25
• 10k + 4 ≤ 25

Nick has $7.00. Bagels cost $0.75 each, and a small container of cream cheese costs $1.29. Write an inequality to find the numbers of bagels Nick can buy.

• 0.75b + 1.29 ≥ 7.00
• 0.75b + 1.29 ≤ 7.00
• 7.00b + 0.75 = 1.29
• 0.75 - 1.29 ≤ 7.00

The booster club needs to raise at least $7,000 for new football uniforms. So far, they have raised $1,250. Write an inequality to find the average amounts each of the 92 members can raise to meet the club’s objective. 

• 1,250 + 92x > 7,000
• 1,250 + 92x ≥ 7,000
• 1,250 + 92x ≤ 7,000
• 1,250 + 92x < 7,000
