1.   Seven more than twice a number is 18. Write an equation that could be used to find the number.
    A. 2g - 7 = 18 B. 2g - 18 = 7
    C. 2g + 7 = 18 D. 2g + 18 = 7
    Hint

  2.   Write an equation to find a number if the difference between four times the number and 13 is 47.
    A. 4(y - 13) = 47 B. 4y - 47 = 13
    C. 4 - y = 13 D. 4y - 13 = 47
    Hint

  3.   The sum of twice a number and 8 is 33. Write an equation and then solve for the number.
    A. 2t + 8 = 33; 12.5
    B. 2(8) + t = 33; 17
    C. 2t = 33; 16.5
    D. 2t + 33 = 8; -12.5
    Hint

  4.   Three more than the product of 6 and a number is 51. Write an equation and find the number.
    A. 3n(6) = 51;
    B. 3 + 6n = 51; 15
    C. 6 + n + 3 = 51; 42
    D. 6n + 3 = 51; 8
    Hint

  5.   Translate the following into an equation:
10 more than three times a number is 100.
    A. 3n – 10 = 100 B. 100 + 10 = 3n
    C. 3n + 10 = 100 D. 10 – 3n = 100
