This video tutorial covers solving and graphing solutions for linear equations, inequalities, exponential equations, and literal equations. It explains using inverse operations to isolate variables, the importance of maintaining balance in equations, and the special rule for inequalities when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers. The video also demonstrates graphing solutions on a number line and solving exponential equations by equating exponents. Finally, it discusses rearranging literal equations to express one variable in terms of others.

What is the first step in solving a linear equation?

• Multiply both sides by zero

• Use inverse operations to isolate the variable

• Divide both sides by the variable

• Add the same number to both sides

When solving a linear equation, what must be done to both sides to keep it balanced?

• Subtract different numbers

• Multiply by different numbers

• Perform the same operation

• Add different numbers

What is the purpose of using inverse operations in solving equations?

• To isolate the variable

• To make the equation more complex

• To add more variables

• To eliminate the variable

In the example 5x - 4 - 2x = x - 10, what is the simplified form of the left side?

• 3x - 4

• 7x - 4

• 5x - 2x

• x - 10

What is the solution to the equation 5x - 4 - 2x = x - 10?

• x = 3

• x = -3

• x = 0

• x = 10

How is the solution to a linear equation represented on a number line?

• By a line

• By an arrow

• By a point

• By a shaded region

What is the final step in solving the equation 5x - 4 - 2x = x - 10?

• Multiply both sides by 2

• Add 4 to both sides

• Divide both sides by 2

• Subtract x from both sides

What must you remember when multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number?

• Keep the inequality symbol the same

• Reverse the inequality symbol

• Subtract the same number from both sides

• Add the same number to both sides

How is the solution to an inequality represented on a number line?

• By a solid line

• By a dashed line

• By a shaded arrow

• By a single point

What does a filled-in point on a number line indicate in the context of inequalities?

• The point is the only solution

• The point is a boundary

• The point is part of the solution set

• The point is not part of the solution set
