If Marley collects 10 golf balls, how many golf balls does Tucker collect?

• 23

• 25

• 20

• 30

What does the term '2m' represent in the expression 2m + 3?

• Three more than Marley's collection

• Twice the number of golf balls Marley collects

• The total number of golf balls collected by Tucker

• The number of golf balls collected by Marley

How many golf balls does Marley collect if Tucker has 159 golf balls?

• 83

• 81

• 80

• 78

Cole buys a laptop for $335 with a $50 down payment and six equal monthly payments. What is the equation representing the remaining balance?

• 335 = 50p + 6

• 335 = 6 + 50p

• 335 = 50 + 6p

• 335 = 6p - 50

Why is multiplication used in the equation representing Cole's monthly payments?

• To determine the total of the six equal payments

• To calculate the down payment

• To find the remaining balance

• To determine the total cost of the laptop

A baseball weighs 25.75 ounces less than a bat. If the weight of the box containing 50 bats is W ounces, what is the weight of one bat?

• 50 / W

• W + 25.75

• W - 25.75

• W / 50

Claire buys a hat that is 60% off and socks that are reduced to $5.49. She spends a total of $9.49. What is the equation representing the cost of the hat?

• x - 0.6 + 5.49 = 9.49

• 0.6x + 5.49 = 9.49

• x + 5.49 = 9.49

• 0.4x + 5.49 = 9.49
