Multiple Choice
Solve the equation: 4x = –36
(1 point)
9
–9
–40
40

Answer 1

To solve the equation 4x = -36, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 4:

4x/4 = -36/4
x = -9

Therefore, the correct answer is B) -9

Answer 2

A)
Solve the following equation: 5x – 15 = 50
(1 point)
13
–13
–7
7

Answer 3

To solve the equation 5x - 15 = 50, we can isolate x by adding 15 to both sides of the equation:

5x - 15 + 15 = 50 + 15
5x = 65

Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 5:

5x/5 = 65/5
x = 13

Therefore, the correct answer is A) 13.

Answer 4

A)
Solve the following equation: 4(x + 2) – 17 = 35
(1 point)
–11
25/2
15
11

Answer 5

To solve the equation 4(x + 2) - 17 = 35, we need to simplify the expression inside the parentheses first:

4(x + 2) - 17 = 35
4x + 8 - 17 = 35
4x - 9 = 35

Next, we can isolate x by adding 9 to both sides of the equation:

4x - 9 + 9 = 35 + 9
4x = 44

Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 4:

4x / 4 = 44 / 4
x = 11

Therefore, the correct answer is D) 11.
