1 2-2 Word Problems

2 Step 1 Determine what you’re being asked. (Find the question mark) Step 2 Define a variable. (what does x mean?) Step 3 Write an equation. Step 4 Solve and state your solution with units. (isolate the variable) must do this!

3 Ex 1 17 less than a number is exactly 24.

4 Ex 2 Eight equals negative two-thirds times a number.

5 Ex 3 Four fifths is equal to ten sixteenths of a number.

6 Ex 4 Find the length of one side of a regular pentagon if its perimeter is 245 inches.

7 Ex 5 An electronics store sells a certain digital camera for $126. This is ⅔ of the price that a photography store charges. How much does the camera cost at the photography store?
