Example Question #81 :Equations

If 3a+9=4b , and b=24 , then what is the value of?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

If 3a+9=4b , and b=24 , the first step is to plug inas the value of.

$3a+9=4\cdot24$

3a+9=96

Subtractfrom each side.

3a=87

Divide each side by 3.

a=29

Example Question #82 :Equations

If 2w-13=5v , what is the value ofif w=28 ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

If 2w-13=5v , and w=28 , the first step is to plug infor:

$2\cdot 28-13=5v$

48-13=5v

35=5v

Divide each side by.

7=v

v=7

Example Question #83 :Equations

Simplify the expression below:

$5(3x-4)-4x(2\cdot 3)+13$

Possible Answers:

9x+7

-9x+7

9x-7

-9x-7

Correct answer:

-9x+7

Explanation:

The first step is to simplifying $5(3x-4)-4x(2\cdot 3)+13$ is to apply the distributive property to the first parenthetical.

$15x-20-4x(2\cdot 3)+13$

Next, we reduce the multiplication expression in the second parenthetical.

15x-20-4x(6)+13

15x-20-24x+13

Next, we combine like terms.

-9x-7

5x+4+3=27

Possible Answers:

3.5

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for the equation, follow the steps below:

5x+4+3=27

5x+7=27

Subtractfrom each side.

5x=20

Divide each side by.

x=4 .

Therefore,is the correct answer.

Example Question #85 :Equations

Solve for.

6y+14=9y-3

Possible Answers:

$\frac{17}{3}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{17}{3}$

Explanation:

To solve for, follow the steps below:

6y+14=9y-3

Addto each side.

6y+17=9y

Subtractfrom each side.

17=3y

Divide each side by.

$y=\frac{17}{3}$

Therefore, the correct answer is $\frac{17}{3}$ .

Example Question #86 :Equations

Solve forin the equation below:

$\frac{w}{8}+\frac{1}{4}=1$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The first step to solving this equation is to make sure the fractions have common denominators.

$\frac{w}{8}+\frac{1}{4}=1$

Given that $\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{8}$ , the equation can be rewritten as:

$\frac{w}{8}+\frac{2}{8}=1$

Since $\frac{8}{8}$ is equal to, the value ofmust bebecause

$\frac{6}{8}+\frac{2}{8}=1$

Therefore,is the correct answer.

Example Question #87 :Equations

What is the value of x if 5 less than x is equal to 14?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

if 5 less than x is equal to 14, then x-5=14 .

To solve this, 5 should be added to each side of the equation, which results in x=19 .

Example Question #88 :Equations

Solve for x:

$7x-18=41+2^{2}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

$7x-18=41+2^{2}$

First, square 2:

7x-18=41+4

Next, add together 41 and 4:

7x-18=45

Add 18 to both sides:

7x=63

Divide both sides by 7:

x=9

Example Question #89 :Equations

Solve for:

4x - 3=10x + 15

Possible Answers:

4.5

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, "move" all of the variables to one side of the equation:

4x -10x - 3= 15

Next, "move" the other numbers to the right side of the equation:

4x -10x = 15 + 3

Simplify:

-6x = 18

Now, divide both sides by:

$\frac{-6x}{-6} = \frac{18}{-6}$

Thus, you get:

x = -3

Example Question #90 :Equations

Which number can fill in the blank to complete the equation correctly?

___ - 9 + 12 = 8 * 3

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Fill in the blank with a number that will make the equation true. On the right side, $8\times3=24$ , so the left side needs to equalalso. "Something" -9+12=24 . If you test the answers,is the number that makes the equation true, sois the correct answer.

Alternatively, $\small -9 + 12$ is the same as, so "something" +3=24 . That "something" would be, sois the correct answer.
