1.   Write 5 less than twice the length equals 11 as an algebraic equation.
    A. - 5 = 11 B. 2 ÷ 5 = 11
    C. 2 - 5 = 11 D. 5 < 2 + 11
    Hint

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

  3.   Find a solution to the equation using guess-check-and-improve. Give the solution to the nearest tenth.
8p – 22 = 30
    A. p = 6.5 B. p = 6.0
    C. p = 11.6 D. p = 6.4
    Hint

  4.   Find a solution to the equation using guess-check-and-improve. Give the solution to the nearest tenth.
k · (18 + k) = 67.84
    A. k = 13.2
    B. k = 13.5
    C. k = 9.8
    D. k = 3.2
    Hint

  5.   Find a solution to the equation using guess-check-and-improve. Give the solution to the nearest tenth.
