What is the solution of the equation:
 2x + 9 = 6x – 7

• x = 2

• x = 3

• x = 4

• x = 5

Solve the following equation:
5n + 34 = −2(1 − 7n) 

• n = 4

• n = 5

• n = 6

• n = 7

Which operation should be performed first to solve the inequality below?
–4x + 7 ≤ 23

• Add 4 to both sides

• Divide by -4 on both sides 

• Subtract 7 on both sides

• Subtract 23 on both sides
