Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Solve for x: 3x + 5 < 20.
[2 marks]2.
Solve for x: 2x - 7 ≥ 3.
[2 marks]3.
Calculate x: 4x + 2 > 18.
[2 marks]4.
Plot the graph of y = 2x on the grid. (Draw the line for x from -3 to 3.)
[3 marks]5.
Construct a triangle with sides of lengths 3x, 2x+1, and x+4, where x solves the inequality 2x - 1 < 5.
[3 marks]6.
Solve for x: 5x - 2 ≤ 3x + 4.
[2 marks]7.
If a shopping budget allows spending less than $50, and each item costs x dollars, write and solve an inequality to find the maximum price per item if purchasing fewer than 8 items.
[3 marks]8.
A store offers a discount so that the total price after discount is less than $40. If the original price is p dollars, and the discount is 10% of p, write and solve an inequality to find the maximum original price.
