1.   Find a solution to the equation using backtracking.
    A. c = 8 B. c = –1
    C. c = 2 D. c = –14
    Hint

  2.   Find a solution to the equation by doing the same thing to both sides.
8p + 14 = 2p – 22
    A. p = –1 B. p = 6
    C. p = 1 D. p = –6
    Hint

  3.   Find a solution to the equation by doing the same thing to both sides.
3(5f + 7) + 9(f + 4) = 9
    A. f = –10 B. f = –2
    C. f = –12 D. f = –9
    Hint

  4.   Julian said, ''I'm thinking of a number. When I add 3 to my number, multiply the sum by 12, divide the product by 8, and subtract the result by 7, I get 11. What is the number I'm thinking of?''
    A. 9 B. 10
    C. 8 D. 7
    Hint

  5.   The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 54. Find the three numbers.
    A. 18, 19, 20 B. 15, 16, 17
    C. 16, 17, 18 D. 16, 18, 20
    Hint
