Question 1: If 3x - 7 = 14, what is the value of x?
- 5
- 7 (Correct answer)
- 21
- 3
Correct answer: 7
Add 7 to both sides to get 3x = 21, then divide by 3 to get x = 7.
Question 2: A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours. What is its average speed in miles per hour?
- 45 mph
- 60 mph (Correct answer)
- 54 mph
