What equation matches this situation?
John wants to buy an MP3 Player that costs $30.98. How much change did he receive if he gives the cashier $40.

40 + c = 30.98

30.98 + c = 40

c - 40 = 30.98

c - 30.98 = 40

Write an equation that models the following statement:
17 less than h equals 42

17-h=42

h-17=42

h+17=42

17+h=42

Which choice models this situation? Marcus needs to sell 25 tickets to a fundraiser by Friday. So far, he has sold 9 tickets. How many tickets does he still need to sell?

t - 9 = 25

t + 9 = 25

9t = 25

t/9 = 25

What is the first step to solve this equation?
x - 5 = 7 - 2x

Add 7 to both sides of the equation

Add 2x to both sides of the equation

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation

2x - 3 + 4x = 27

Solve for x.
10-5x+3x= 5 - x
