1. QuestionMultiple choice

Evaluate the expression 3x+23x + 2 when x=4x = 4.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 1414.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Substitute 4 for x: 3 × 4 + 2 = 14.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Substitute 4 for x: 3 × 4 + 2 = 14.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

Which expression represents “5 less than twice a number n”?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 2n−52n − 5.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Twice n is 2n, and 5 less than that is 2n − 5.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Twice n is 2n, and 5 less than that is 2n − 5.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve x+9=17x + 9 = 17.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is x=8x = 8.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Subtract 9 from both sides: x = 17 − 9 = 8.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Subtract 9 from both sides: x = 17 − 9 = 8.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 4y=284y = 28.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is y=7y = 7.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Divide both sides by 4 to get y = 7.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Divide both sides by 4 to get y = 7.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

Which expression is equivalent to 4(a+3)4(a + 3)?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 4a+124a + 12.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Use the distributive property: 4 times a plus 4 times 3 equals 4a + 12.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Use the distributive property: 4 times a plus 4 times 3 equals 4a + 12.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

A taxi charges 4 dollars plus 2 dollars per mile. Which expression gives the cost for m miles?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 4+2m4 + 2m.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: The fixed charge is 4 dollars and the distance charge is 2m dollars.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

The fixed charge is 4 dollars and the distance charge is 2m dollars.

7. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the value of 18÷(3+3)18 ÷ (3 + 3)?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 33.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Evaluate inside the parentheses first: 3 + 3 = 6; then 18 ÷ 6 = 3.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Evaluate inside the parentheses first: 3 + 3 = 6; then 18 ÷ 6 = 3.

8. QuestionMultiple choice

Which equation represents the statement “a number increased by 12 is 30”?
