1. Solve the equation 5x + 2 = 17.
✅ Solution:
5x + 2 = 17 subtracting 15 on both sides gives
5x = 15 , and divid by both sides by 3 gives
x = 3
Check: 5×3+2=17
15+2=17
17=17 ✔️
2. Solve the equation 3(x+2) = 15.
✅ Solution:
3(x+2) = 15
[First distribute 3 into the bracket, that is 3(x+2)=3x+3×2=3x+6]
3x + 6 = 15 [add -6 on both sides]
3x = 9 [multipy both sides by 1/3 ]
x = 3
3. Solve the equation 2x - 4 = 6x + 8.
✅ Solution:
2x - 4 = 6x + 8
-4 - 8 = 6x - 2x [collecting similar items or terms]
-12 = 4x
x = -3
4. Solve the equation
3x - 7 = 10x + 8.
Solution:
3x - 7 = 10x + 8
-7 - 8 = 10x - 3x
-15 = 7x
x = -15/7.
5. Solve the equation
4(2x - 1) - 3x = 5.
Solution:
4(2x - 1) - 3x = 5
8x - 4 - 3x = 5.
8x - 3x -4= 5 [add 4 on bothe sides ]
8x -3x = 9
5x = 9
x = 1.8 (rounded to one decimal place)
6. Solve the equation
5x/3 + 2x/9 = 1.
✅ Solution:
5x/3 + 2x/9 = 1 [multipy both sides by 9 to get)
15x + 2x = 9
17x = 9
x = 9/17
7. Solve the equation
2x + 3(4x - 1) = 7x - 5.
✅Solution:
2x + 3(4x - 1) = 7x - 5
2x + 12x - 3 = 7x - 5
14x - 3 = 7x - 5
7x = 2
x = 2/7 (exact answer)
8. Solve the equation -3(x - 4) = 21.
✅Solution:
-3(x - 4) = 21
-3x + 12 = 21
-3x = 9
x = -3
9. Solve the equation
-2(-x + 5) + 4x = 16.
✅Solution: be careful abt the minus signs.
-2(-x + 5) + 4x = 16
-2(-x)+(-2)(5)+4x=16
2x-10 + 4x = 16
6x - 10 = 16
6x = 26
x = 13/3
10. Solve the equation
2(x - 3)/3 + 1 = 1/3(x + 9).
✅Solution:
2(x - 3)/3 + 1 = 1/3(x + 9)[multipy both sides by 3]
2(x - 3) + 3 = x + 9
2x - 6 + 3 = x + 9
x = 12

📝📝📚📚📝📝📚📚📝📝📚
1⃣ A company buys a product for $100 and sells it for $120. What is the percent increase in profit?
📖 Solution: Profit = Selling price - Cost price = $120 - $100 = $20. The percent increase in profit is (20/100) x 100% = 20%.
2⃣ A store reduces the price of a product from $50 to $40. What is the percent decrease in price?
📖 Solution: Percent decrease = [(Original price - New price)/Original price] x 100%. In this case, (50 - 40)/50 x 100% = 20%.
3⃣ The value of a property increases from $300,000 to $350,000. What is the percent increase in value?
📖Solution: Percent increase = [(New value - Original value)/Original value] x 100%. In this case, (350,000 - 300,000)/300,000 x 100% = 16.7%.
4⃣ A company purchases raw materials for $10,000 and the price increases by 15%. What is the new cost?
📖 Solution: New cost = Original cost + (Original cost x Percent increase/100). In this case, $10,000 + ($10,000 x 15/100) = $11,500.
5⃣ A department store has a sale of 20% off all merchandise. If a customer buys a $100 item, what is the new price?
📕Solution: New price = Original price - (Original price x Percent off/100). In this case, $100 - ($100 x 20/100) = $80.
6⃣ A company has an advertising budget of $10,000 and spends $7,500. What percent of the budget was spent?
📕Solution: Percent spent = (Amount spent/Total budget) x 100%. In this case, ($7,500/$10,000) x 100% = 75%.
7⃣The price of gold increases by 10%. If a customer buys a $500 gold necklace, what is the new price?
📗Solution: New price = Original price + (Original price x Percent increase/100). In this case, $500 + ($500 x 10/100) = $550.
8⃣ A company has a revenue of $50,000 and expenses of $35,000. What is the percent profit margin?
📘Solution: Profit margin = (Profit/Revenue) x 100%. In this case, Profit = Revenue - Expenses = $50,000 - $35,000 = $15,000. Profit Margin = ($15,000/$50,000) x 100% = 30%.
9⃣An item increases in price from $20 to $25. What is the percent increase in price?
📖 Solution: Percent increase = [(New price - Original price)/Original price] x 100%. In this case, (25 - 20)/20 x 100% = 25%.
🔟A store reduces the price of a product by 30%. If the original price was $100, what is the new price?
📕Solution: New price = Original price - (Original price x Percent off/100). In this case, $100 - ($100 x 30/100) = $70.
11. A business has a yearly income of $100,000 and yearly expenses of $80,000. What is their net income?
✅Solution: Net income = Revenue - expenses = $100,000 - $80,000 = $20,000.
12. A store offers a 15% discount on all merchandise. If a customer buys $200 worth of products, what is the new price?
✅Solution: New price = Original price - (Original price x Percent off/100). In this case, $200 - ($200 x 15/100) = $170.
13. A house decreases in value from $500,000 to $450,000. What is the percent decrease in value?
✅Solution: Percent decrease = [(Original value - New value)/Original value] x 100%. In this case, (500,000 - 450,000)/500,000 x 100% = 10%.
14. A company gives a 10% bonus to all employees for good performance. If an employee makes $40,000, what is their new salary?
✅ Solution: New salary = Original salary + (Original salary x Percent bonus/100). In this case, $40,000 + ($40,000 x 10/100) = $44,000.
15. A business has a profit of $10,000 and a revenue of $50,000. What is their percent profit margin?

✅Practice questions on domain and range of functions with 📝 solutions🔑
📌#ESSLCE #Mathematics📌
📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚
1. What is the domain of the function f(x) = 3x^2 - 2x + 1?
a) All real numbers
b) x > 0
c) x ≠ 0
d) x ≥ -1/3
Solution:
To find the domain, we need to consider which values of x would make the function undefined. Since this is a quadratic function, it is continuous and defined for all real numbers. Therefore, the answer is (a).
2. What is the range of the function g(x) = |x| + 2?
a) All real numbers
b) y ≥ 2
c) y > 2
d) y > 0
Solution:
To find the range, we need to consider which output values of the function are possible. Since the absolute value of x is always either positive or zero, the smallest value that g(x) can be is 2.
( see: |x| ≥ 0 so y≥0 +2≥ 2 ).
Therefore, the answer is (b).
3. What is the domain of the function h(x) = log(x + 4)?
a) x < -4
b) x > -4
c) x ≠ -4
d) All real numbers
Solution:
To find the domain, we need to consider which values of x would make the logarithm undefined. Since the argument of a logarithm must be positive, x + 4 must be greater than zero, that is x+4>0, so x > -4. Therefore, the answer is (b).
4. What is the range of the function f(x) = 2cos(x) - 1?
a) -2 ≤ y ≤ 1
b) -1≤ y ≤ 1
c) All real numbers
d) -3 ≤ y≤1
Solution:
To find the range, we can consider the range of the cosine function, which is -1 ≤ cos(x) ≤ 1. Multiplying this by 2 and subtracting 1 gives us the range of f(x), which is
-3 ≤ f(x) ≤ 1. Therefore, the answer is (d).
5. What is the domain of the function g(x) = sqrt(4x - 1)?
a) All real numbers
b) x > 1/4
c) x ≥ 1/4
d) x ≠ 1/4
Solution:
To find the domain, we need to consider which values of x would make the square root undefined. Since the argument of the square root must be non-negative, 4x - 1 must be greater than or equal to zero. That is, [4x-1≥ 0 implies 4x ≥1 so x ≥1/4].
Therefore, the answer is (c).
