Algebra questions basically involve modeling word problems into equations and then solving them.
Below are some questions on Algebra (Easy)
Question 1: Solve for x: 3x + 7 = 2x − 5
Subtract 2x from both sides:
x + 7 = −5
Subtract 7 from both sides:
x = −12
Question 2: Factorize: x2 − 9x2 - 9
This is a difference of squares:
x2 − 9 = (x + 3)(x − 3)
Question 3: Solve for y: 4y − 2 = 3y + 6
Subtract 3y from both sides:
y − 2 = 6
Solve for y:
y = 8
Question 4: Expand: (x + 5) (x − 2)
Use distributive property :
x2 − 2x + 5x − 10
Combine like terms:
x2 + 3x − 10
Question 5: Solve for x: 5x − 4 = 2x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
3x − 4 = 8
3x = 12
x = 4
Question 6: Simplify: 3(2x + 4) −5(x − 1)
3(2x + 4) −5(x − 1)
Expand terms:
6x + 12 −5x + 5
Combine like terms:
x + 17
Question 7: Solve for x: 2x + 13 = 5
Multiply both sides by 3:
2x + 1 = 15
Subtract 1 from both sides:
2x = 14
solve for x:
x = 7
Question 8: Solve for a: 2(a − 3) + 4 = 3(a + 1)
Expand terms:
2a − 6 + 4 = 3a + 3
Simplify:
2a − 2 = 3a + 3
Subtract 2a from both sides:
−2 = a + 3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
a = −5
