A school fundraiser sells cookies for $2 each and brownies for $3 each. If Theo bought only brownies and spent $21, how many brownies did he buy?
Answer: 7
3b = 21 → b = 7.
Solve for t: 4(t + 2) − 3(t − 1) = 15
Answer: 4
4t + 8 − 3t + 3 = 15 → t + 11 = 15 → t = 4.
If 3x − 2 = 13, what is the value of 9x − 6?
Answer: 39
9x − 6 = 3(3x − 2) = 3(13) = 39.
A road trip covers 420 miles. Ivan has driven x miles and still has 3 times that distance remaining. How many miles has Ivan driven?
Answer: 105
x + 3x = 420 → 4x = 420 → x = 105.
Solve for y: 0.4y + 2.6 = 5.4
Answer: 7
0.4y = 5.4 − 2.6 = 2.8 → y = 7.
In the equation 3(2x − p) = 24, if x = 5, what is the value of p?
Answer: 2
3(10 − p) = 24 → 10 − p = 8 → p = 2.
An internet plan charges a flat monthly fee of $35 plus $5 for every GB over 10 GB. Selena's bill was $60. How many GB over the base limit did she use?
Answer: 5
5g + 35 = 60 → 5g = 25 → g = 5.
