Math 1 Solving Equations

4a + 3 = 15

• 2
• 4
• 1
• 3

Solve:
3x + 7 = -8

• 5
• -5
• -12
• -18

Solve for the given variable:

5k + 9 = 19

• k = 3

• k = -5

• k = 2

• k = 6

What is the first step to solve this equation:

- 3x -11 = 44

• Add 3 to both sides

• Subtract 11 from both sides

• Add 11 to both sides

• Divide 3 on both sides.

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 x:

7(2x - 4) = 42

• x = 5

• x = 8

• x = 2

• x = 9

Solve for x.

• x = 21
• x = 7
• x = −21
• x = 4

 $\frac{2}{3}m\ =\ -6$  

• 9

• -9

• 4

• -4

True or False: In order to solve the equation below, you would add 6 to each side then multiply by -8 on each side.

 $\frac{g}{-8}\ -6\ =\ -12$  

• true

• false
