Q #1: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below? (left|3x-7 ight|-13=2)
A. x = 21/3, x=22/3
B. x = 7/3, x=9/3
C. x = 15/2, x=9/3
D. x = 22/3, x=-8/3
Answer Explanation
-
Add 13 to both sides to isolate the absolute value term, resulting in ( left|3x-7 ight|= 15)
-
Consider two cases:
- When (+(3x-7)) is positive, solve for x to get (3x = 15 + 7) then (3x=22) (finally x=frac{22}{3})
- When (-(3x-7)) is negative (but the absolute value makes it positive). Solve for x to get (-3x = 15 - 7) then (-3x=8) (finally x=- frac{8}{3})
So, there are two possible solutions: (x=frac{22}{3} or x=- frac{8}{3})

Q #3: Joe’s uncle is eight less than four times Joe’s age. Which of the equations represents Joe’s uncle’s age (u) as it relates to Joe’s age (k)?
A. u=8-4k
B. k=4u-8
C. k=8-4u
D. u=4k-8
Answer Explanation
We are asked to form an equation to find Joe’s uncle’s age to the age of Joe.
First, we find Joe’s age which is k. We know that Joe’s uncle’s age is four times that of Joe less 8. Then,
Joe’s uncle’s age, u = 4k-8.
Thus, the age of Joe’s uncle is u=4k-8.

Q #4: Soft Drinks: Orange Two 24-packs for $20, One 24-pack for $15 Root Beer: One 24-pack for $18 Cream Soda: One 12-pack for $10 A consumer needs to purchase at least 60 soft drinks for a picnic. Which of the following combinations is the most cost-effective?
A. 5 packs of cream Soda
B. 3 packs of Orange
C. 2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda
D. 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda
Answer Explanation
To find the cheapest option, we find the amount the consume will spend for each option given:
2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $20 + $10= $30 (Choice D)
3 Packs of Orange will cost $20+$15 = $35 (Choice B)
2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($18) + $10 = $46 (Choice C)
5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($10)=$50 (Choice A)
Hence Choice D - 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda is the correct answer. -

Q #6: ((frac{x}{y}) + rw = z) Solve for x in the equation above.
A. x=y(z-rw)
B. x=rw(y-z)
C. x=w(z+ry)
D. x=rwy-z
Answer Explanation
The question requires us we make x the subject of the formula.
First, we subtract rw to both sides of the equation
Multiply both sides by y
Thus, the formula for finding the value of x is y(z-rw).

Q #7: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below. (|2x - 4| - 10 = 2)
A. x=4 or x=-8
B. x=-4 or x=8
C. x=-2 or x=1
D. x=-3 or x=5
Answer Explanation
Explanation:
We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
If
, a>0, then u=a or u=-aIn this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes
Solving for x
The second condition becomes
Solving for x
Then, the value of x is -4 or 8.

Q #9: (frac{[2 (8 + 2 * 6)]}{(16 div 2)} = frac{40}{8} = 5) Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?
A. 6
B. 2
C. 5
D. 3
Answer Explanation
We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.
First, we start with the numerator and solve
[2(8+2*6)]
We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 2*6=12. The expression becomes
[2(8+12)]
Then, we conduct the addition of 8+12=20. Then, the expression yields
[2(20)] = 2*20 = 40
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 16/2=8.
Thus, the expression is reduced into
(frac{[2 (8 + 2 * 6)]}{(16 div 2)} = frac{40}{8} = 5)
The expression reduces into 5.
