1. Solve: 5x - 8 = 3x + 12

2. Write y = 2x + 3 in standard form.

3. A taxi charges $3 plus $2 per mile. Total cost is $17. How many miles?

Preview shows representative problems from the printable student-facing PDF.

Answer key preview

1. x = 10

2x = 20, divide by 2

2. -2x + y = 3 (or 2x - y = -3)

Move 2x to the left side

3. 7 miles

3 + 2m = 17, so 2m = 14, m = 7

Worked answers help teachers verify explanation depth, not just final-answer accuracy.
