Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Using substitution method, solve: y = 2x and x + y = 9. Find the values of x and y.

Show answer

x = 3, y = 6

Substitute y = 2x into x + y = 9: x + 2x = 9 → 3x = 9 → x = 3. Then y = 2(3) = 6. Check: 3 + 6 = 9 ✓

2multiple correct

The sum of two numbers is 20 and their difference is 8. Which of the following are correct?

Show answer

The larger number is 14, The smaller number is 6, The product of numbers is 84

Let numbers be x and y where x > y. Then x + y = 20 and x - y = 8. Adding: 2x = 28 → x = 14. Subtracting: 2y = 12 → y = 6. Product = 14 × 6 = 84.

3multiple choice

In a fraction, the numerator is 3 less than the denominator. If 2 is added to both numerator and denominator, the fraction becomes 3/4. Find the original denominator.

Show answer

10

Let denominator = y, then numerator = y - 3. Original fraction = (y-3)/y. After adding 2: (y-3+2)/(y+2) = (y-1)/(y+2) = 3/4. Cross multiply: 4(y-1) = 3(y+2) → 4y - 4 = 3y + 6 → y = 10.

4true false

True or False: The system x + y = 5 and 2x + 2y = 11 has no solution.

Show answer

True

The first equation gives x + y = 5. The second equation 2x + 2y = 11 can be written as 2(x + y) = 11, or x + y = 5.5. Since x + y cannot be both 5 and 5.5 simultaneously, the system has no solution.
