Algebra 1 Chapter 1 Review

Scott works on cars. He charges $35 for each car plus $7 per hour. Write an equation that represents this scenario if Kylie's car bill was $63.

• 7x + 35 = 63
• 7x = 63
• 7x - 35 = 63
• 35x + 7 = 63

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

A taxi charges $3, plus $1.50 for each mile traveled.  Mr. Lewis rode in the taxi from his home to the airport and was charged $30.  How many miles does Mr. Lewis live from the airport?

• 22 miles

Solve the equation:
-5x = 25

• x = 20
• x = -20
• x = -5
• x = 5

The objective when solving an equation is to....

• isolate the variable.
• check the solution.
• guess and check.
• Combine Like Terms.
