STAAR Algebra Solving Equations

Solve for x:
8x - 10 = -34

• 4

• 3

• -3

• -24

Solve for W:

• 9

• 11

• 15

• 10

Solve for n:
n+2=-14-n

• 6

• 8

• -8

Solve for y:
-5 - 7y = -20y + 34

• y = 3

• y = 1

• y = 0.67

• y = 46

Solve the following equation.
4x + 3 = -5

• 1/2

• -1/2

• -2

• 2

What is the error?

• Adding 2x to 3x

• Subtracting 5 from both sides

• Adding 2x to -2x

• Dividing by 5 on both sides

What would be the best first step to solving the equation in one step?

• multiply both sides by ³/₂ 

• divide both sides by 3

• multiply both sides by 3

• subtract ²/₃  from both sides

solve for x

• 5

• -25

• 15

• 1/5

Solve for x 

• x = 6

• x = 25

• x = 28

• x = 17
