Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.63 Solving Equations with the Distributive Property skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Hard
Which answer makes the equation -2 - 7(p + 9) + 6(p + 7) = -20 true?
A4
B-3
C-8
D-2
Solution & Explanation:Distribute to each set of parentheses and combine like terms: -p - 23 = -20. Add 23 to both sides to get -p = 3. Divide by -1 to get p = -3.
Problem 2Difficulty: Hard
What is the value of r after you expand and solve 73 = 1 - 7(r + 2) + 5(10 + 2r)?
Solution & Explanation:Distribute to each set of parentheses and combine like terms: 3r + 37 = 73. Subtract 37 from both sides to get 3r = 36. Then divide by 3 to get r = 12.
Problem 3Difficulty: Hard
Which value of z is the solution to -22 = -2(2z - 1) - 2(z + 12)?
A0
B-2
C-5
D5
Solution & Explanation:Distribute to each set of parentheses and combine like terms: -6z - 22 = -22. Add 22 to both sides to get -6z = 0. Then divide by -6 to get z = 0.
