  1. 5
  2. 7
  3. 19/5
  4. 35

Answer: B. 7

Adding 8 to both sides gives 5x = 35, so x = 7.

2. The system 2x + y = 11 and x - y = 1 has solution (x, y); what is the value of x?
  1. 4
  2. 3
  3. 5

Answer: A. 4

Adding the equations gives 3x = 12, so x = 4.

  1. x ≥ 3
  2. x < 3
  3. x ≤ 3

Expanding and solving gives 6x - 3 ≤ 15, so x ≤ 3.

4. A pottery studio charges a one-time registration fee of $18 plus $4.50 for each class attended. If a student pays $54 total, how many classes did the student attend?
  1. 6
  2. 7
  3. 9
  4. 8

Answer: D. 8

Subtracting the $18 fee leaves $36, and $36 divided by $4.50 is 8 classes.
