• {0, 1, 2}

• {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

• {x | 0 ≤ x ≤ 2}

• {x | 0 ≤ x ≤ 4}

After paying $5.12 for a salad, Kamauri has $27.10. How much money did he have before buying the salad?

• n + $5.12 = $27.10

• n - $5.12 = $27.10

• n - $5.12 = -$27.10

• $5.12 - n = $27.10

Which equation would describe "two times a number plus five equals 15"?

• x + 5 = 15

• 2x + 5=15

• x + 2(5) = 15

• 2(x + 5) = 15

Lee charges $3 for a basket and $2.50 for each pound of fruit picked at the orchard. Write an equation in y = mx + b form for the total cost of x pounds of fruit from the orchard.

• y = 3x + 2.5

• y = 2.50x + 3

• y = 2.50x 

• y = 3x + 2.50
