Solve Equations Practice

What is the first step in solving this equation:
5x + 7 = 12

• Divide by 5
• Subtract 5
• Multiply by 7
• Subtract 7

Solve for x:
8x - 10 = -34

• 4
• 3
• -3
• -24

Find the error in the problem below
19 - 2k = 3k - 1
     +3k   +3k
19 + 1k = -1
-19           -19
k = -20

• They should have divided by 1 for the last step
• They should add 19 instead of subtracting 19
• I can not find an error
• Instead of adding 3k they should subtract 3k

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   -3x + 5 = -16

• 9
• 8
• -7
• 7

Solve  9 + 3x = 10

• 2/3
• 1/3
• -1/3
• 4

What is the first step to solve this equation:
-11 - 3x = 44

• Add 3 to both sides
• Subtract 11 from both sides
• Add 11 to both sides
• Divide 3 on both sides.
