What's on the worksheet

  1. Solve each equation and check it in the original:
    3n - 8 + 5n + 2 = 50-14 = 2b + 6 - 6b - 46(c - 3) + 4c = 4220 - 4(d + 2) = -8-2(f - 4) - 3(f + 1) = 25
  2. Clear the fractions or decimals, then solve and check:
    \dfrac{2}{5}x - 3 + \dfrac{1}{2}x = 159 = \dfrac{3h - 1}{4} - \dfrac{h - 3}{6}1.5 - 0.2(m + 3) + 0.05m = 0.3
  3. Find x and the side lengths of a triangle with a given perimeter.
  4. Find why Hiro's check failed and fix his solution.
  5. Find the number k so that a given x is a solution.
  6. Word problem: the cost of Hannah's class field trip per student.
