Solve for x: 3(x − 2) + 4 = 2x + 7
Answer: x = 9
3x − 6 + 4 = 2x + 7 → 3x − 2 = 2x + 7 → x = 9.
Which value of x satisfies the inequality 2x − 5 > 3?
Answer: x = 5
2x − 5 > 3 → 2x > 8 → x > 4. Only x = 5 is greater than 4.
Solve the system: x + y = 10 and 2x − y = 5
Answer: x = 5, y = 5
Add the equations: 3x = 15 → x = 5. Substitute: 5 + y = 10 → y = 5.
What is the slope of the line passing through (2, 3) and (6, 11)?
Answer: 2
Slope = (y₂ − y₁)/(x₂ − x₁) = (11 − 3)/(6 − 2) = 8/4 = 2.
A line has equation y = −3x + 7. What is the y-intercept?
Answer: 7
In slope-intercept form y = mx + b, b is the y-intercept. Here b = 7.
If −4 < 2x ≤ 8, which of the following is a valid solution set for x?
Answer: −2 < x ≤ 4
Divide all parts of the compound inequality by 2: −4/2 < 2x/2 ≤ 8/2 → −2 < x ≤ 4.
