Create Grade 7 expressions and equations test →Sample questions
1. Simplify: 3(x + 4) - 2x
2. Solve: 4x - 9 = 19
3. A phone plan costs $12 plus $5 per gigabyte. Write an equation for total cost c using g gigabytes.
4. Solve: 2(x - 3) + 5 = 17
5. Are 5a + 10 and 5(a + 2) equivalent?
Answer key preview
1. x + 12
Distribute 3 to get 3x + 12, then combine like terms: 3x - 2x = x.
2. x = 7
Add 9 to both sides to get 4x = 28, then divide by 4.
3. c = 5g + 12
The variable cost is 5g and the fixed fee is 12, so combine them.
Common student mistakes
- Forgetting to distribute to every term inside parentheses
- Combining unlike terms
- Dropping negative signs during equation solving
