Jacob solved the following equation using the steps shown.

Step 1 5x + 9 = 2x - 3

Step 2 3x + 9 = -3

Step 3 3x = -12

Step 4 x = -4

What operation did he perform to get from Step 1 to Step 2?

• Subtracted 2x from both sides of the equation

• Subtracted 9 from both sides of the equation

• Multiplied both sides of the equation by 3

• Added -3 to both sides of the equation

Joey and four of his friends went out to eat. They decided to split the bill evenly. Each person paid $11.13. Let b represent the total bill.

• b + 5 = 11.13

• b - 5 = 11.13

• b/5 = 11.13

• 5b = 11.13
