1Solve for x: 5x - 9 = 2x + 6

A.x = 3

B.x = 5

C.x = 4

D.x = 6

Explanation: Subtract 2x from both sides: 3x - 9 = 6. Add 9: 3x = 15. Divide by 3: x = 5.

2Solve for x: 2(x + 4) = 18

A.x = 7

B.x = 4

C.x = 9

D.x = 5

Explanation: Distribute: 2x + 8 = 18. Subtract 8: 2x = 10. Divide by 2: x = 5.

3Solve for x: x/4 + 3 = 8

A.x = 16

B.x = 20

C.x = 12

D.x = 24

Explanation: Subtract 3: x/4 = 5. Multiply both sides by 4: x = 20.

4Solve for x: 7 - 2x = 1

A.x = 2

B.x = 4

C.x = 1

D.x = 3

Explanation: Subtract 7: -2x = -6. Divide by -2: x = 3.

5Solve the inequality: 3x - 5 < 7

A.x < 4

B.x < 6

C.x < 3

D.x < 5

Explanation: Add 5 to both sides: 3x < 12. Divide by 3: x < 4.

6Solve the inequality: -2x > 8

A.x > -4

B.x < -4

C.x > 4

D.x < 4

Explanation: Divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign: x < -4.

7Simplify the expression: 3(2x - 4) + 5x

A.8x - 12

B.6x - 12

C.11x - 4

D.11x - 12

Explanation: Distribute: 6x - 12 + 5x. Combine like terms: 11x - 12.

8Solve for x: (x - 2)/3 = 4

A.x = 10

B.x = 14

C.x = 12

D.x = 6

Explanation: Multiply both sides by 3: x - 2 = 12. Add 2: x = 14.

9If 6x + 2 = 4x + 14, what is the value of x?

A.x = 8

B.x = 4

C.x = 6

D.x = 5

Explanation: Subtract 4x: 2x + 2 = 14. Subtract 2: 2x = 12. Divide by 2: x = 6.

10Solve for x: 5(x - 1) = 3(x + 3)

A.x = 7

B.x = 5

C.x = 6

D.x = 8

Explanation: Distribute: 5x - 5 = 3x + 9. Subtract 3x: 2x - 5 = 9. Add 5: 2x = 14. So x = 7.
