Practice Problems
-
Simplify the expression:
\( 3x + 4x - 5 \) -
Evaluate the expression when \( x = 2 \):
\( 2x^2 + 3x - 4 \) -
Factor the expression:
\( x^2 + 5x + 6 \) -
Expand the expression:
\( (x + 2)(x + 3) \) -
Combine like terms:
\( 7y - 3y + 2y - 5 \) -
Solve for \( x \):
\( 2(x - 3) = 6 \) -
Evaluate the expression when \( x = -1 \):
\( 4x^3 - 2x + 7 \) -
Factor the expression:
\( 3x^2 - 12x \)
Solutions
-
Simplify the expression:
\( 3x + 4x - 5 = 7x - 5 \) -
Evaluate the expression when \( x = 2 \):
\( 2(2^2) + 3(2) - 4 = 2(4) + 6 - 4 = 8 + 6 - 4 = 10 \) -
Factor the expression:
\( x^2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3) \) -
Expand the expression:
\( (x + 2)(x + 3) = x^2 + 3x + 2x + 6 = x^2 + 5x + 6 \) -
Combine like terms:
\( 7y - 3y + 2y - 5 = 6y - 5 \) -
Solve for \( x \):
\( 2(x - 3) = 6 \)
\( x - 3 = 3 \)
\( x = 6 \) -
Evaluate the expression when \( x = -1 \):
\( 4(-1)^3 - 2(-1) + 7 = 4(-1) + 2 + 7 = -4 + 2 + 7 = 5 \) -
Factor the expression:
\( 3x^2 - 12x = 3x(x - 4) \)
