Two 8th grade classes are selling raffle tickets to raise money.

One class is selling ticket for $5 and has already raised $300.

The other class is selling tickets for $3.50 and has already raised $425.

Which equation can be used to find x the number of tickets each class needs to sell so they will raise the same amount of money.

• 5x+300=3.50x+425

• 5+200x=3.50+425x

• 3.50x+5x=300+425

• not here

Solve the equation:
3(x - 1) = 2x + 9

• x = 12
• no solution
• x = 10
• x = 6

Write an inequality to represent the following relationship:
Three times a number minus two is less than the number plus ten.

• 3x - 2 < x + 10
• 2 - 3x < x + 10
• 3x - 2 > x + 10
• 2 - 3x > x + 10

Select the situation that could be modeled by: 12 + 5x = 18+3x

• Derek charges a base fee of $12 to walk a dog plus $5 per hour. Darla charges a base fee of $18 plus $3 an hour to walk a dog. After how many hours would they make the same amount of money?
